A Coming Of Age
25 Nov, 2007
Jamie Whincup is better than Craig Lowndes.
Gets your attention, doesn't it? It's a very bold statement to make. Whincup is not yet through his fourth full V8 season and Lowndes is a three-times champion and Bathurst winner. But up to the time of writing this article Whincup was ahead on the scoreboard and that's how V8 Supercar racing measures drivers.

Calendar Crisis
27 Nov, 2007
The 2008 V8 Supercar Championship calendar is finally out there after several weeks of stuttering and stammering. It's not 100 per cent locked and loaded but it is in the marketplace, albeit several weeks later than scheduled. So what can be so
difficult about constructing dates for the Holden versus Ford series?

The Price of Power
30 Nov, 2007
They are the heart of V8 Supercar racing. But they are also the sport's biggest stumbling block to reducing costs. The powerful but venerable V8 engines that drive the cars and draw the fans are the most expensive single component of the sport. Which is why they are such a good place to start when trying to find some cost savings.

Where To From Here?
1 Dec, 2007
Let's put it all into perspective. Russell Ingall's contract with Stone Brothers Racing ends this year. Check. Russell Ingall is a Ford contracted driver until the end of next year. Check. Russell Ingall has told V8X which team he will be driving for in 2008. Ummm, not quite, but it was worth a try...

Young Guns of Bathurst
6 Dec, 2007
Mount Panorama, Bathurst. It is the furnace that casts Australian motorsport's great champions, from Peter Brock in 1972 and Allan Grice in 1986 to Craig Lowndes in 1994 and Garth Tander in 2000. No other track and no other race has such an impact on a young driver. V8X kept tabs on the progress of three young 'uns in this year's race, Will Davison, Shane Price and Lee Holdsworth, all of whom have marked themselves as future champions.

Finale Fiasco
13 Dec, 2007
Yes, the long-awaited V8X Virtual Championship finale is finally here. All seven competitors are suited up for the last eight-lap endurance event of the 2007 series, the chequered flag is ready and the computerised officials are in place. And there's nothing standing between the our title hopefuls and the crown except the salty sea air and their manipulative ploys to destroy each other on track.

De-Brief Round 10 - The greatest race
30 Dec, 2007
We wondered pre-Bathurst how the 2007 Supercheap Auto 1000 could ever top last year's dramatic affair. But the latest edition of the Great Race, with its unexpected climax, most certainly did.

31 Dec, 2007
Garth Tander's second pole position and third round win of 2007 strengthened his status as championship favourite, while the minor placegetters proved their naysayers wrong.
