And the V8 power does not stop there, with the National Trans Am Series fronting for its fourth round. After a sensation trio of races at the recent event at Mount Panorama, the Trans Am cars will be a sight to see at the 3.93km circuit.

Aaron Seton holds a slender two point lead over Nathan Herne, while Edan Thornburrow sits in third place.
