Lexus Might Join V8 Supercars Grid in 2017

As the subject line says, Lexus is considering joing the V8 Supercars series with the vehicle pictured below. It is a V8 powered RC-F GT3. It would be part of a crop of "Gen 2" Supercars set to replace the current models in the next couple of years.

“We will be opening up power plants, door configurations and the like,” V8 Supercars CEO James Warburton told the Daily Telegraph last week.

Do any of you follow V8 Supercars?

Lexus confirms V8 Supercars evaluation


The head of Lexus Australia, Sean Hanley, has confirmed that they are in ”high-level” discussions with V8 Supercars regarding a future entry in the championship.
”We’ve had very high-level discussions with V8 Supercars. V8 Supercars never approached me, any interest we have shown has come from Lexus. We intitiated a high-level discussion,” said Hanley to carsadvice.com.au.

One of the key factors for Lexus is the coming rule change in 2017 which is likely to see the introduction of two-door cars, opening up for the Lexus RC F model.
