  • In 2013 Kelly Racing switched from competing with Holden Commodores to Nissan Altimas, running a re-sleeved version of Nissan's quad-cam aluminium 5.6-litre VK56DE V8 reconfigured to a 5.0-litre capacity.
    But in 2020, Kelly Racing will make the switch to the Ford Mustang for the 2020 Virgin Australia Supercars Championship and farewells the Nissan Altima.
    What was your favourite Nissan Altima Supercar moment?
    The Virgin Australia Supercars Championship (formally Australian Touring Car Championship) is the premier motorsport category in Australasia and one of Australia’s biggest sports. Globally, it is recognised as the best touring car category in the world and a leader in motorsport entertainment.

      That's why I hate when people say "What about 888's domination?" or "Car of the Future ruined Supercars". 888 never had the domination in a season like Team Penske did. Yes they would win the championship in the end but never totally dominate a season. And Car of the Future I believe actually made the racing more competitive and better until the arrival of the ZB and Mustang where both cars were totally over engineered.

    Watching from the UK the biggest negative about V8 Supercars is the lack of other manufacturers cars competing, I'm not sure whether that's by design or by fortune, it does seem strange that in all the years there have been so few options, so it must be more by design, which is a shame really.
