INXS STARS IN THE HOT SEAT IN DARWIN

Australian rock legends INXS continue to live life in the fast lane with two members stepping aboard V8 Supercar at Darwin's Hidden Valley Raceway.

In town for the SkyCity Triple Crown, Team BOC and Jana Living Racing gave drummer Jon Farriss and guitarist/saxophonist Kirk Pengilly the ride of a lifetime.

As part of the engine room of INXS, Farriss is used having power in his hands and underneath his feet. However, the ride alongside race winner in Perth and Winton Jason Bright left him with an appreciation of the job the V8 Supercar drivers do.

Jason Bargwanna gave Pengilly some tips of the car and track before his fast lap alongside the former Bathurst winner.

The V8s take to the track for qualifying and the opening race on Saturday afternoon; while INXS light up the stage later that evening.

@Auricfield You know, it seems you're right!

@calgal32 Yes - they hide JD because he's been stealing all the attention... their egos can't cope.

Where's JD! Hiding him again?
