They should throw a tuned but stock GTR35 in there for sh*ts and gigs.

I reckon the pace car at Sandown should've done a hot lap to time it against the V8's..

It would sound a little strange, Mercedes win the Bathurst 1000.

But then again Jaguar have also done it before. More teams are the go, only wish Chrysler would jump in as well. Be good see them win the 1000 for the first time.

Didnt Volvo come close too one year with Brocky behind the wheel?

Closer than close, he raced for Volvo in the super tourer series!!

I think its and awesome move, now Expensive Daewoo and Ford fans can unite to hate all the other manufacturers :)

all v8 supercars are the same with a couple different fibreglass panels. they arent holdens or fords. who cares what cars join and what badges they have. they all have the same power, weight, size, suspension brakes gearbox etc.

but if they make them all the same people say its boring .

if they let them do what they want the team with the most money (vodafone) will just win every year and it will get boring also.

it makes me so gosh darn mad

Wasn't it a Volvo wagon that Brock drove...and went quite well while it went lol.

And Bathurst was won by forien cars for many years before it became a Ford/Expensive Daewoo thing. For the race that's modern history.

I can't see BMW sitting on the sidelines if Merc pulls any weight out of V8SC's. I just hope they do keep some resemblance to the stock car and not end up like Nascar.

Also sad too see Toyota not jumping on the V8 wagon....

You would hate to be dumping ballast in the front of a race car to keep it...homoganised ... against a cast iron dinasor

I think this will be watched by other car company's, they will see if Nissan and Mercedes do a good job then might invest them selves. I could see Toyota coming in 2014.
