It's good to see that you people are taking an interest in V8 Supercars. I've always maintained that we should be going over to America to race, because like you say you have some really great road circuits over there. I'd love to see a V8 Supercar on Laguna Seca.

@wha65 I dunno mate, I think that is Paul Morris's actual series car from 2007. It sounds exactly like a V8 Supercar, not one of those half arse road cars that people think are the real thing. I watched an incar shot of Paul Morris taking his girlfriend around the Townsville circuit in the Love machine Commodore which is the PMM built Sirromet VE, and this thing looks and sounds exactly the same from the inside. Keep in mind the V8 Supercars were using the H pattern gearboxes back in 2007.

@dash662 Well apparently they've just signed a deal for the V8 Supercars to race in Texas in 2013. By that stage the teams will be using the new "car of the future" design, so the cars will be slightly different to what are now, but the atmosphere and the noise will hopefully be the same ;)

@19escort73 hell i'd love to see nascar on laguna seca or barbers and if V8 supercars ever came to the US i'd take my hillbilly ass to go see that race in a second.
