Erebus V8 Supercars

[Styria]

Hi Mark, SEL69L has made reference to this different crank configuration during a phone conversation just fifteen minures ago. Do you know, or are familiar (he. he - same thing) with the pros and cons of such crankshaft configuration ? There has to be a reason for it. I wonder what ? Regards Styria

Lee Holdsworth Erebus driver was in 5th place during the 20th and 21st lap but that did not last long unfornately.

I did see and hear the E63 AMG parked in the garage during the Race today what a mighty engine the E63 has!!

Congrats to Van Gisbergen winning Race two.

Both Mercedes were suffering from electrical faults I am sure that will be sorted out before the next round.

Good luck to Mercedes for the 2013 Championship will be watching with interest to see how Mercedes perform.

It has returned my interest in V8 Supercars after an absence of many years but I hope for an improvement in the rankings.

Racing this weekend with the first of four engine upgrades for this season! It'll be very interesting to see how they perform now....

Hi guys flat plane cranks are used in racing motors becauce they allow better exhaust and intake flow and power is smother. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V8_engine . Ps at Barbagaloo today . Geoff
