Show Notes
We celebrate the glory years Super Touring in Australia in this edition of the V8 Sleuth Podcast powered by Timken, recorded over Zoom. The two-litre touring car formula, so popular in Great Britain with the British Touring Car Championship and adopted across Europe, North America and South Africa at its peak, ran its own standalone championship in Australia between 1994 and 2001.
Some of the things we chat about as we go down memory lane:
- The origins of the series and its ‘rivalry’ with the established touring car scene in Australia
- Comparisons with the new TCR Series Australia
- The Super Touring Bathurst 1000s
- The phenomenal cars and where they ended up
- The two spectacular, headline moments of the series
- The great drivers of the category and our take on who was the King of Super Touring in Australia
- And plenty more!
