Descobri esta categoria australiana há pouco tempo através do Motors TV.
São uns monolugares muito curtidos.
The Aussie Racing Car Category is the newest and fastest growing style of motorsport in Australia and caters for a diverse range of competitors from novice right through to seasoned experts.
The cars are small measuring in at just over a metre high but they are big on performance featuring a 125bhp twin cam 16 valve Yamaha engine that buzzes to 12,000 rpm and rockets the little machines 450kg weight to over 200kph. The integral sequential gearbox is coupled to a live rear axle with chassis engineering and suspension configuration that is high tech and akin to the top open wheeler formula car categories. The current body styles include, VY Commodore, AU Falcon, FJ Holden and 1940 Ford Coupe with more body styles currently in development. All cars sport an identical chassis and mechanicals.
The category has received vast recognition from the motor sport fraternity and the general public and is a support category to V8 Supercars. All rounds of the 2004 series are held at V8 Supercar events and all the action from each round of the National series is shown on television Australia wide.
The philosophy of Aussie Racing Cars (Australia) who are the manufacturers is to provide a true purpose built racing car that has all the feel and characteristics of a top level open wheeler or touring car but at an affordable cost. The manufacturer provides a full on track racing service that includes technical information, parts back up, chassis set up and full driver support that is unique within the sport.
The racing is fast and furious creating unparalleled close and exciting racing action. The tightness of competition at every event sees cars slipstreaming only millimetres apart down the straights then fanning out four wide in thrilling braking duals with the race leader at one corner easily being relegated to fifth or sixth by the next.
