The highly experienced Victorian driver becomes the first ‘DSA’ appointed to the Kumho Series –run for ex-V8 Supercars - since it began in 2008.

Welcome to the Kumho Tyres V8 Touring Car Series Website
The Kumho Tyres V8 Touring Car Series (V8TC) category grew from the fact that the AU Falcon and VT/VX Commodore V8 Supercars were to become ineligible to compete in the V8 Supercar Fujitsu Series. With so many 'de-registered' cars looking for a place to race, the V8TC Series was created in 2008.Not only does the series provide a home for 'retired' and/or historically significant V8 Supercars, it enables teams/drivers to continue to race these iconic and exciting race cars, and just as importantly, it opens up another entry point for young drivers.
The category is subject to strict technical requirements, and has been approved as an official CAMS sanctioned National Series. CAMS appointed stewards; a technical director and full national level medical resources are present at each event.
