  5. V8 Supercar driver Tim Slade visits Pit Straight marking the ’50 days to go’ milestone ahead of the 2014 Clipsal 500 Adelaide. To celebrate the Clipsal 500 ‘50 days to go’ milestone V8 Supercar driver, Tim Slade took time out of his gruelling training regime to get reacquainted with the Clipsal 500 track as he prepares to kick-start his 2014 campaign with new team Supercheap Auto Racing. The former South Australian said he loves coming back to race in front of his home crowd and is looking forward to the new racing format and the circuit’s first ever twilight race. “This year’s Clipsal 500 is going to be one of the most exciting in the race’s history and I can’t wait. Two starts, two finishes on the Saturday and I think we’ll see a lot more aggressive racing overall. 125km is a really good distance – it’s long enough to ensure positions on the track will most certainly change but short enough that drivers will have to really race the entire time which is ultimately what the fans want,” Slade said. The exciting new format also includes a totally new evening race schedule with the first of the 39 lap V8 Supercars events currently scheduled to start around 4pm. The second V8 Supercar race for Saturday is scheduled to start around 7pm and finish just before 8pm as the sun sets low over the Adelaide parklands circuit. Sunday’s race format will see the V8 Supercars lining up for qualifying, the top ten shoot out and the final 250 kilometre leg of the Clipsal 500 Adelaide. On Friday, fans will be treated to a host of race action in the evening with Aussie Racers, Touring Car Masters, Dunlop Series and Porsche Carrera Cup all on show after 5pm. Clipsal 500 CEO, Mark Warren, said the new racing format will create more excitement, more drama and even closer competition. “This wasn’t a decision we made lightly. We took into consideration extensive feedback from our fans who felt V8 Supercar racing needed a shake-up. The idea of two shorter races was well received as it provides more starts and finishes, and more on-track action and entertainment for fans”, Warren said. With the new racing format, fans will get to see two V8 Supercar race starts, two finishes, and the drivers going flat out with valuable Championship points awarded for each 125 kilometre race on Saturday afternoon and evening. The race will also see the debut of Volvo into the competition which is another first for Adelaide.” GET RACE READY COMPETITION DETAILS Wanna get flown around Australia, attending 5 awesome rounds of the 2014 V8 Supercars Championship?

  6. How do you get a hot lap with, Top Gear’s tame racing driver, The Stig? The promotion begins on Monday 6th January. Ordinarily it's not that simple. You have to do is become a successful British or International celebrity. Then cross your fingers that you get invited to participate Top Gear's ‘star in a reasonably priced car’ segment in the UK. Then, hopefully, in preparation for that segment, the Stig, who does the celebrity driver tuition, will take you for a lap of the Top Gear Circuit to demonstrate what to do. There is an easier way thanks to Yokohama. At the Top Gear Festival 2013 we gave one lucky person a Hot Lap with the Stig. It blew his mind. That's when we realized we want five to give away in 2014. What is a hot lap? It's when an average person gets in the passenger side of a racing car with a 'tame racing driver' for a fast lap around a race track. After the lap the passenger normally exists the car on shaky legs, with a big smile and a new perspective on the laws of physics. How do you enter the Yokohama Hot Lap with The Stig promotion? Just buy two or more Yokohama orange oil car tyres or SUV tyres before Tuesday 18th February 2014 and go in the draw to win one of five prize packages which include a hot lap with The Stig. Yokohama Orange Oil Tyres are the official tyre partner of the Top Gear Festival Sydney. Yokohama tyre Australia is the exclusive tyre partner of the Top Gear Festival Sydney. That allows us to be on a first name basis with ‘The’ (Stig) and put together some pretty impressive prize packages. Each prize includes: 1 x Hot Lap with The Stig for the person drawn as the winner, 4 x VIP corporate suite passes to the Top Gear Festival Sydney on Saturday 8th March 2014. This means the winner can bring three friends or family members along and 2 x twin share hotel rooms for Friday night 7th March. 4 x return flights for those who live outside NSW. (If you're from NSW you'll get VIP parking at the event) Top Gear's James May (left) and Jeremy Clarkson will be joining The Stig for the Top Gear Festival 2014. The Top Gear Festival Sydney is a two day event at Sydney Motorsport Park, Eastern Creek, NSW. The Top Gear Festival 2014 dates are Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th March 2014. The world-famous presenters Jeremy Clarkson, James May and their tame racing driver The Stig recreate a live version of the famous Top Gear TV show with the help of a great variety of cars and celebrities. The inaugural Top Gear Festival Sydney in 2013 attracted over 41,000 people. The 2014 Top Gear Festival should be even bigger. The line up includes the Infinity Red Bull Racing F1 team. New Aussie driver Daniel Ricciardo will attempt to beat Mark Webber's Sydney Motorsport Park Grand Prix Circuit lap time of 1:13.606. There will also be the Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge, Stig Powerlaps, Stunt driving, Drifting, Postie Bike Challenge, Car Football and a whole lot more. In 2013 the 'Yokohama Stunts and Jumps Zone' featured some extreme motorbike stunts. Don't worry, the rider pictured above doing a 'Superman' landed safely (but is unlikely to father children). There are five tyres in the Yokohama orange oil tyre range. 1. The Yokohama BluEarth (AE01) a fuel efficient tyre for small to medium cars. 2. The Yokohama C.drive2 (AC02) a safe tyre with good wet grip for small to large cars. 3. The new ADVAN Sport (V105) a prestige high performance tyre. The perfect mix of comfort and performance. 4. The ADVAN Neova (AD08R) a high performance tyre for road and race track use. 5. The Geolandar SUV (G055) a long lasting fuel efficient highway terrain tyre for urban 4x4s. Yokohama Orange Oil tyres are available at Tyres & More, Bob Jane T-Marts and independent Yokohama tyre stores listed on our website. To enter check the store has a Stig entry box and entry form. Then purchase your Yokohama orange oil car tyres or SUV tyres, fill in the entry form with your contact details and proof of purchase invoice number. Then place your entry in the entry box and cross your fingers. If, for some reason, your favourite Yokohama tyre store doesn't have an entry form and/or competition entry box we have a plan B. Once you buy your new tyres you can download the Yokohama Hot Lap with The Stig entry form, fill it in and post it to: Hot Lap with The Stig Entries Yokohama Tyre Australia Pty Ltd PO Box 6002 Silverwater NSW 1811 The winners will be drawn at 10am on Friday 21st February. Once the entries are verified we’ll contact the winners and post the results in the General News section of the Yokohama website. “Yokohama Orange Oil Tyres – Hot lap with the Stig promotion AUSTRALIA” For the full terms and condition visit: www.yokohama.com.au Here's a little taste of what's in store if you win one of 5 Hot Laps with The Stig at the Top Gear Festival Sydney on 8th March 2014. Remember, if you're a winner, you also get VIP tickets for YOU and 3 friends. Plus flights and accommodation in Sydney. Just buy Yokohama Orange Oil tyres and enter in-store at Bob Jane T-Marts or Tyres & More stores before 18th February.

Full terms and conditions are available at Clipsal500.com.au V8 SUPERCARS CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES The Clipsal 500 Adelaide, is the first round of the 2014 V8 Supercars Championship Series, and is Australia's largest domestic motor sport event. The 2014 Clipsal 500 Adelaide will be the sixteenth race to be held in Adelaide with the event first being held in April 1999. The mountain at Bathurst may be iconic, but the drivers say the challenge of Adelaide's street circuit is perhaps even greater and the taste of victory equally sweet. In 2014 Clipsal 500 will experience the biggest single change in its history. The concept of V8 Supercars competing over 500 kilometres around the streets of Adelaide remains at the “core’ or “DNA” of the event, but in 2014 it will be conducted as two 125 kilometre races on the Saturday with a 250 kilometre race decider on the Sunday. There will be more excitement, more drama, and even closer competition. VOLVO ON THE 2014 V8 SUPERCARS GRID Volvo will be on the V8 Supercars Championship grid in 2014 with two Volvo S60s and the first time you will see them will be at the Clipsal 500. As the first luxury brand to join the V8 Supercars Championship with a factory team, Volvo Car Australia has joined forces with Volvo Car Group's global motorsport partner Polestar to go racing. Together, they will partner with the well-respected Garry Rogers Motorsport team to form Volvo Polestar Racing, the first formalised factory team from a luxury car brand. FEATURE RACE CATEGORIES DUNLOP SERIES The Dunlop Series has become iconic in developing the next generation of motorsport stars with this year being no different. The series still remains the core breeding ground for future V8 Supercar stars and can’t go unmissed with past drivers graduating to race in the main game. PORSCHE CARRERA CUP AUSTRALIA The Porsche Carrera Cup Australia championship will open its 2014 season at the ever popular Clipsal 500. In 2014 the Series introduces a brand new version of the 911 GT3 Cup car that may look the same to many but has increased performance and many innovations in the area of driver safety including a rescue hatch in the roof. The German thoroughbreds are truly at home on the Adelaide street layout. TOURING CAR MASTERS By popular demand the Touring Car Masters grid featuring Boss Mustangs, Camaros, Falcon GT’s, Chrysler Chargers and Porsche is back. The cars are legendary and so are the drivers with the likes of John Bowe, Jim Richards, Glenn Seton, and Greg Crick behind the wheel. FORMULA 3 Open-wheelers that are the fastest cars in the nation. These are the only machines in the country that can provide a stepping stone to Formula 1 and there is no-where more appropriate for them to race than on Adelaide’s former Grand Prix circuit. V8 UTES The mighty utes were introduced to the Australian racing scene right here in Adelaide. It’s Ford and Expensive Daewoo rivalry in race tuned “tradie” machines. What they might lack in finesse is certainly made up for in panel crunching action. AUSSIE RACING CARS Small in stature and big on performance, the thirty plus car grids make the ‘mini’ versions of Toyota, Expensive Daewoo and Ford replicas a sure fire crowd favourite. Three and four wide through the corners is not only possible, it’s just about the norm. TICKETS & PACKAGES Trackside, grandstand and premium platform tickets are available. Student discounts, family and group packages are also on offer. Kids 12 and under are free!

  19. 17 year old Todd Hazelwood won the 2013 Shannons Supercar Showdown by less than a tenth of a second after a nail-biting grand final showdown with Tim Macrow on 7mate last Saturday. In the definitive clash of youth and experience, the young South Australian overcame early nerves to defeat his older and more experienced Victorian opponent in a hot lap shoot out at Melbourne’s Calder Park Raceway. Hazelwood and Macrow were each given two timed five-lap sessions on the full-length circuit, driving the Shannons V8 Supercar prepared by 2013 Bathurst 1000 winners Ford Performance Racing. By recording the fastest individual lap time, Hazelwood claimed the ultimate prize - a testing contract with FPR plus a drive in the Dunlop Series in a Shannons-sponsored V8 Supercar. At the start of the 2013 series, eight contestants were split into two teams each comprising four rookies, headed by Ford Performance Racing’s V8 Supercar drivers and team captains Will Davison and Mark Winterbottom. Grand finalists Hazelwood and Macrow were the last of eight contestants remaining after a series of point-scoring challenges and a semi-final fought out over the previous seven weeks. 31 year old Macrow carried winning momentum into the grand final, after a peerless performance for Team Davison in the point-scoring rounds with four wins from seven challenges. Hazelwood’s path to the finals was in complete contrast, having finished the point-scoring rounds in last place and relying on his skipper Will Davison’s “gut instinct” Captain’s Choice to get him through. Macrow was first to hit the track in the grand final and showed plenty of class in his initial five-lap session with a fast and mistake-free drive that threw down the gauntlet to his younger opponent. A clearly nervous Hazelwood struggled to match Macrow’s speed in his first session, describing it as “pretty scrappy” but confident he could calm his nerves and improve in the final run. Macrow showed he was also feeling the heat of grand final fever in his last five-lap stint, locking a front brake and running off the circuit before recovering for a strong finish. Hazelwood really got his act together in the last session and put everything on the line, impressing judges Winterbottom and Davison with his focus, discipline and speed under enormous pressure. Todd’s winning margin of less than .01 of a second – the blink of an eye – showed how closely matched the two grand finalists were and how either driver would have been a deserving winner of the 2013 Shannons Supercar Showdown. Shannons Insurance and FPR would like to congratulate Todd for a fantastic effort this season. What your thoughts on this results? That’s it for reasons 3 of the Shannons Supercar Showdown.

  21. There are a few articles online suggesting that Nizpro are developing a kit using the EFR8374 and EFR9180, but as there are a few different exhaust housing styles for both turbochargers, we cannot confirm it is identical to what we have listed. The turbocharger itself is exactly the same, but in order to supply exactly what Nizpro are using, you will need to find out what exhaust housing they are using.
  22. The EFR line of turbochargers was born out of an internal BorgWarner Turbo Systems program labeled Advanced Aftermarket Products or AAP. The program was engineered by a cross-functional team that began with the proverbial clean-sheet of paper. No legacy products, no preconceived notions of what a turbocharger could or could not have; no restrictions. The aerodynamics for the product line were selected using a range of optimized combinations that would give users turbocharger solutions anywhere between 250 and 1000 horsepower capability per turbo. Next, a list of every notable design characteristic for an engine boosting device was tabled. Specific interest was given to new ideas that had never been formed in metal or had never been combined into an aftermarket turbo. The result is the new EFR (Engineered for Racing) line of turbochargers from BorgWarner. These turbochargers contain a bevy of key attributes such as Gamma Ti turbine wheels, dual ceramic ball bearing cartridges and investment cast stainless steel turbine housings. Collectively, those features help give the EFR line its innovative appeal and will provide a breakthrough experience in durability, device responsiveness and installer/user satisfaction.
