  1. FITNESS FULLY TESTED AS YOUNG ROOKIES STEP UP IN 2013 SHANNONS SUPERCAR SHOWDOWN Episode four of the Shannons Supercar Showdown on 7mate last Saturday featured an intriguing mix of horse power and human power, as some younger V8 rookies again top scored to increase the pressure on their older rivals. The eight contestants pushed their strength and endurance to the limit in a gruelling series of fitness tests from which Team Davison emerged unbeaten with $500 Adrenalin gift vouchers awarded to each team member. England’s Adrian Campfield (24) and V8 Ute racer Craig Dontas (33) also provided a contrast of youth and experience by top scoring for their respective teams in the driving challenge, while another young gun Macauley Jones (18) scored a crucial bonus point for achieving the highest speed. The two teams, each comprising four rookies, are headed by Ford Performance Racing’s V8 Supercar drivers and team captains Mark Winterbottom and Will Davison. The eight contestants face more demanding challenges in coming weeks as they compete for the ultimate prize – a testing contract with FPR plus a drive in the Dunlop Series in a Shannons-sponsored V8 Supercar. The first challenge saw Team Winterbottom and Team Davison face off in the Adrenalin Skills Challenge, comprising three demanding tests of the rookies’ physical strength, stamina and ability to work together as teams. The three challenges required moving heavy vehicle tyres in a variety of ways including two relay events plus flat-dragging a 40 kg truck tyre across bitumen using tow ropes and body harnesses. Muscle burn, fatigue and lapses in concentration surfaced as the exhausted rookies pushed themselves to breaking point, with Team Davison emerging unbeaten in an impressive display of fitness and teamwork. Week four of the series also required the contestants to compete in the Start Line Challenge at Calder Park Raceway, behind the wheel of the V8-powered Shannons Fastrack Racing Challenge Car. This was a drag race against the stopwatch on a classic 1/8th mile strip with a narrow and tricky chicane installed just before the finish line. The fastest driver from each team earned top points, with heavy penalties applying for hitting the marker cones. The wet and slippery conditions were tailor-made for V8 Ute racer Craig Dontas who top scored for Team Winterbottom. UK open wheeler racer Adrian Campfield was the real surprise, with a fast and flawless run to score his first challenge win for Team Davison. At the half-way mark, Tim Macrow now holds a slender one-point lead over Craig Dontas but growing confidence and top-scoring performances by their younger rivals in recent weeks has set the stage for a nail-biting second half of the series.

  3. Watch Episode 3 of the Shannons Supercar Showdown 2013. Points Gap Tightens as Young Guns Find Form in 2013 Shannons Supercar Showdown School age V8 rookies came out firing in a thrilling third episode of the Shannons Supercar Showdown on 7mate last Saturday, closing the points gap to their older and more experienced peers,who now have a real fight on their hands. 16-year-old Todd Hazelwood - the youngest contestant in the series - and 17-year-old ‘wild child’ James Golding were two of the four top points scorers to emerge from another crucial pair of challenges. The teenagers overcame early nerves to score maximum points for their respective teams, each comprising four rookies headed by Ford Performance Racing’s V8 Supercar drivers and team captains Mark Winterbottom and Will Davison. The eight contestants face increasingly tough challenges in the weeks ahead as they compete for the ultimate prize – a testing contract with FPR plus a drive in the Dunlop Development Series in a Shannons-sponsored V8 Supercar. The first challenge in week three was to get behind the wheel of a 125 hp Formula Ford single seater racing car capable of 250 km/h top speeds. Each V8 rookie was allowed two flying laps of the test track against the clock – the driver with the fastest time earned the most points. Formula Three racer Todd Hazelwood (16) top scored for Team Davison with an impressive display of his open wheeler driving skills while the UK’s Daniel Cammish (24) proved his British Formula Ford championship pedigree by scoring maximum points for Team Winterbottom. Overly aggressive driving by teenage tearaway James Golding led to instant disqualification from the Formula Ford Challenge when he came to a smoking halt during his timed run after causing serious gearbox damage. Next up was the V8 Hot Lap Challenge which required each of the eight contestants to climb aboard the booming ShannonsFastrack Racing V8 Challenge Car for two more flying laps of Calder Park against the stopwatch. The V8 rookies were not only competing for the fastest time and top points but also trying to impress Ford Performance Racing Team Principal Tim Edwards, who was in attendance and will be making the final decision on who wins the coveted FPR testing contract. The raw speed of 17-year-old James Golding helped make amends for his disqualification from the Formula Ford Challenge by setting the fastest time for Team Winterbottom. Overall points leader Tim Macrow (31) made sure the young guns didn’t take a clean sweep of the rich points on offer though by setting fastest time in the V8 Hot Lap Challenge for Team Davison. Macrow now holds a slender three-point lead over Team Winterbottom’s Craig Dontas (33) but their younger rivals are starting to pile on the pressure approaching the series’ half-way point. Make sure you don’t miss the Shannons Supercar Showdown next Saturday on 7mate (check local guides for times). Plus there’s the chance to WIN a Ford Falcon XR6 Ute valued at more than $42,000 including 12 months of Shannons comprehensive insurance.

  4. Watch Episode 2 of the Shannons Supercar Showdown 2013. MATURITY CONTINUES TO SHINE BRIGHT IN STORMY 2013 SHANNONS SUPERCAR SHOWDOWN 31-year-old Formula Three driver Tim Macrow and 33-year-old V8 Ute racer Craig Dontas used their superior skills and experience to overcome atrocious conditions in the second exciting week of the Shannons Supercar Showdown on 7mate last Saturday. The week one winners gave their younger rivals another lesson in high performance driving under maximum pressure, by emerging as top point scorers from a pair of new challenges featuring go karts and wet tracks that tested the eight V8 rookies to the limit. Under the show’s new format, Macrow and Dontas again scored maximum points for their respective teams, each comprising four rookies headed by Ford Performance Racing’s V8 Supercar drivers and team captains Mark Winterbottom and Will Davison. The eight contestants face more challenges in coming weeks as they compete for the ultimate prize - a testing contract with FPR plus a drive in the Dunlop Series in a Shannons-sponsored V8 Supercar. Under dark and threatening skies, Saturday’s showdown commenced with a Go Karting Challenge at the Go Kart Club of Victoria’s demanding Port Melbourne track. Each rookie was given two flying laps against the clock to try and set the fastest time, driving an Arrow Kart that could reach speeds of 100 km/h – Macauley Jones comes to a disappointing finish. Prior to this challenge the rookies were told that the fastest driver would receive a $500 Adrenalin gift voucher. What they were not told was that the winner would also earn a crucial bonus point. Tim Macrow proved his supreme performance in the first week was no fluke by clocking the fastest time - but it was a close call. The youngest driver in the competition, 16-year-old Todd Hazelwood, finished runner-up by a mere 0.02 of a second. The competition then switched to base camp at Melbourne’s Calder Park Raceway for the Wet Track Challenge, which required the rookies to strap into the Shannons Fastback Racing V8 Challenge Car to test their wet weather driving skills against the clock on a tricky course that was half dry, half wet. 10-second time penalties applied for spinning out, hitting a marker cone or not stopping in the designated zone. However, the entire course was soon engulfed by torrential rain when a violent thunderstorm erupted over Calder Park. Age and experience again shone through the gloom though as the eldest contestants -Macrow and Dontas put in fast and faultless drives in the slippery conditions to each score maximum points. Team Davison’s Macrow now leads the competition by a single point from Team Winterbottom’s Dontas, leaving their six young arrivals hungrier than everto try and level the score when they face their next round of challenges in episode three. So don’t miss the Shannons Supercar Showdown next Saturday on 7mate (check local guides for times). Plus there’s a chance to WIN a Ford Falcon XR6 Ute valued at over $42,000 including 12 months of Shannons comprehensive insurance. To enter go to Shannonssupercarshowdown.com.au

  7. Age and experience beat youthful exuberance in the first challenge faced by eight V8 Supercar hopefuls when the Shannons Supercar Showdown returned to 7mate on Saturday for its third series. In the first of eight episodes, V8 Ute racer Craig Dontas (33) and Formula Three driver Tim Macrow (31) gave their younger rivals a lesson in cool-headed car control by mastering a challenging motorkhana course against the clock with no penalties. Under the show’s new format, Dontas and Macrow scored maximum points for their respective teams, each comprising four rookies headed by Ford Performance Racing’s V8 Supercar drivers and team captains Mark Winterbottom and Will Davison. The motorkhana was the first of many challenges that will be conducted at Melbourne’s Calder Park Raceway over coming weeks to test the V8 rookies’ mental and physical skills as they compete for the ultimate prize - a testing contract with FPR plus a drive in the Dunlop Series in a Shannons-sponsored V8 Supercar. There are no driver eliminations this time. Each challenge carries points that the contestants must accumulate - just as they would if chasing victory in the V8 Supercars Championship. The top point scorers from Team Winterbottom and Team Davison will go through to the finals. And in a surprise twist, Mark and Will must also pick another contestant from each of their teams to go through. This is called the Captain’s Choice and is sure to create plenty of controversy. Saturday’s first episode introduced viewers to the contestants representing diverse age groups and backgrounds, as they were thrust into the motorkhana challenge which carried harsh 10-second penalties for driving errors. Team Davison went first, with a nervous 16-year-old Todd Hazelwood aboard the Ford Fastrack Racing Challenge Car being penalised for stalling the engine and not following course instructions. After Tim Macrow’s faultless performance, 24-year-old British Formula Ford racer Adrian Campfield was also penalised for making a wrong turn, before Macauley Jones (18-year-old son of V8 Supercar veteran Brad Jones) blotted his scorecard by striking a witches hat. Craig Dontas excelled for Team Winterbottom with a fast and faultless drive while his three younger team-mates James Golding (17), UK Formula Ford racer Dan Cammish (24) and the only female rookie Chelsea Angelo (17) all incurred time penalties for driving errors. Dontas and Macrow now lead the points chase as the eight V8 Supercar rookies face their second challenge next week. Will age and experience continue to be the winning formula? Or will one of the fast but flustered young guns be able to control their nerves and prove they’ve got what it takes?

NAME: Adrian Campfield COUNTRY: United Kingdom AGE: 24 OCCUPATION: Kart Driver Coach BIO: A talented Formula Ford driver, Adrian Campfield's race career has been plagued by financial troubles. The 24 year old Brit has not raced a full season in 3 years and is desperate to get back behind the wheel.

This is Craig's last chance to fulfil his dream of racing V8 Supercars and he hopes he'll make his wife and 3 young boys proud. NAME: Chelsea Angelo STATE: Victoria AGE: 17 OCCUPATION: Student CURRENTLY RACING: Victorian Formula Ford BIO: At 17 years of age and currently studying Year 11 Chelsea Angelo is the baby of the competition. After a successful junior career in motocross and karting, Chelsea made the move to Formula Ford aged 15. She already holds the Formula Ford lap record at Phillip Island and was recently involved in a V8 test day at Winton. Although she may be the youngest rookie, when that helmet goes on Chelsea is as tough as her male competitors.

After a few years of racing sporadically, the 31 year old has put everything on the line to race a full season in 2013. Tim's work as a driver coach also keeps him connected to the motorsport world.

  16. The most coveted prize in reality TV is back, with Shannons Supercar Showdown returning to 7mate in 2013 for its 3rd series! In 2011, the Shannons Supercar Showdown Reality TV series was born. The exciting new concept saw 10 hot prospect drivers from around the world pitted against each other in a series of challenges. The winner earned themselves a seat in Australia's greatest motor racing event - The Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000. The 2011 winner was 17 year old Cameron Waters who generated nationwide coverage for being the youngest driver ever to compete in the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000. In 2012, Shannons Supercar Showdown released season 2. Built on the reality shows popularity and successful format with Rick & Todd Kelly of Kelly Racing, the series saw both judges return to oversee the preparation of the winners car for Bathurst 1000. After an exciting and challenging series, the winner of series 2 was Jesse Dixon just 19 years of age. Supercar Showdown broke another record when Jesse teamed up with Shannons Supercar Showdown Season 1 winner Cameron Waters for the 2012 Bathurst 1000 as the youngest ever driver pairing to compete in the Bathurst 1000. In 2013, the multi-award winning program returns for series 3 with a new format, new team garage and a new prize. The 3rd Supercar Showdown series will see the Ford Performance Racing replacing Kelly Racing as the team garage. It will bring with it a host of new twists and turns that will see 8 rookie drivers hit the starting grid to battle it out under the watch of Ford Pepsi Max Crew stars, Mark Winterbottom and Will Davison. In an exciting new twist, this year’s showdown pits Frosty v Davo. Each driver will mentor 4 drivers through the TV series in their roles as team captains. Both drivers have searched far and wide, from Australia to the US to as far as even Europe, to pick their drivers for the starting grid. Up for grabs is the opportunity of a lifetime for the series winner - a testing contract with V8 Supercar team Ford Performance Racing. Contestants will converge on FPR’s Melbourne headquarters for their chance to impress Will and Mark, but it’s ultimately FPR Team Principal, Tim Edwards who will make the final decision on who wins the coveted testing contract. Also, for the first time ever, popular V8 pit-lane reporter Briony Ingerson will be joining the series. Briony will join the contestants as they battle over 8 episodes at Melbourne’s Calder Park Raceway, driving everything from V8 racecars, to karts and Formula Ford before a seat fitting in the 2012 FPR Falcon V8 Supercar. In declaring the team’s support for Shannons Supercar Showdown, FPR Team Principal Tim Edwards said “Shannons Supercar Showdown has so far presented an amazing opportunity for over 20 young motor racing drivers to take their career to the next level. Many of these drivers now compete across the top motorsport categories in Australia. We are really excited to partner with the TV series and open the doors of Ford Performance Racing to the successful winner, as our 2014 Testing Rookie” he said. Both FPR drivers are really excited about the opportunity to be part of the series. “The pressure in this game never stops – Frosty and I are great rivals on the track, but now we are battling it out on and off the track like never before! The driver line up we have is pretty amazing and it’s definitely game on as far as I’m concerned.” said Will Davison. Both drivers will mentor their respective teams in all aspects of racing. They will help secure the driver, who will ultimately impress Tim Edwards as the most complete driver package, worthy of joining the FPR team. "I can’t wait to get on the track with these guys. It’s a great way for race fans to watch our rookies compete and see how race car drivers operate at the top level. There are so many talented drivers who just need the right break and our list is looking sharp. It would be great for a new driver to join the team as a result of the series.” said Mark Winterbottom. As well as watching the two team captains go head to head, race fans will also see the inner workings of a V8 Supercar team as the cameras go behind the garage door during the series. “We are really looking forward to sharing our team and our partners with race fans across the nation”said Edwards. The new series, with team mentors Mark Winterbottom and Will Davison, provides a real insight into the inner workings of the FPR team and making it must watch TV for motor racing fans. Shannons Supercar Showdown Series 3 is sure to be bigger and better than ever. Series 3 commences on 7mate in September. For more information visit the Official Shannons Supercar Showdown Website.
