Almost all the motorsport vehicles are made up of space frames just like they do for NASCAR racing cars. Is that the same way V8 Supercars are made? The answer would be no. The reason for this answer is V8 Supercars are models that are currently in production for general public to use. Two such kind of production models are the VE Commodore and FG Ford Falcon. The body of these two production vehicles are used to build . But onlythe exterior resembles the in production car the interior and performance parts are completely custom designed according to the necessity of the racing car.

The long wheel bases of the two cars Commodore and Falcon saw them getting rejected from V8 supercar racing at certain point of time. So both the models had to undergo a slight change from its production model in the exterior appearance. The changes were that of shortening of wheelbase, lowering of the roof top of the car body and reducing the size of the back door to fit in the shortened wheel base. These changes were very minor which can hardly be noticed by the viewers watching the sport. The interior would go in for a serious level of change before the car is declared race fit. 

The wings, spoilers were very much part of all the V8 supercars. It also included a splitters and side skirts with air dam. Both the car types would be tested extensively to have equal level of performance and speed. This is done to have an exciting race from start to the end. When the performance and speed are maintained in the same level only the tactics would play a part in winning and losing. The testing carried out would be done at the same speed level also. 

Weighing in at 1355 kg is the minimum weight a V8 supercar should have without the drivers sitting on the car. The rear wheel drive and front mounted engine are some of the strict specifications followed by the racing teams. The norms are set by V8 Supercars Australia. The 5.0 litre engine of a V8 supercar can provide up to 600 bhp to 630 bhp power. The fuel efficient ethanol fuel is used to increase efficiency and also lessen the pollution caused to the atmosphere. This serves two purposes race better and save environment better. 

All cars are provided with a similar gearbox which has 6 speed transmissions and break system which is also unique and custom made for V8 supercars. The breaks and transmission are manufactured by Alcon UK and Hollinger & Co Australia. The suspension is dual with rear live axle suspension. The front axle suspension is designed as a normal wishbone suspension. Dunlop do the honours of supplying the tyres for the races, qualification and practise.

Ever see a car accident? I’m sure most of us did and such accidents make us worry for our lives while we are on the road. Most of us indeed value our dear lives to the point of missing everything that life has to offer.  Well I’m included in the population of the most that value our lives most but have you ever wondered who belonged to the non most? I have an idea. Come closer so that you can listen to how I come to know the people belonging to the non most.

I come to know this people not personally but through a view from a far. These are the people joining the V8 Supercars. Yes! The skilled car racers of V8 Supercars. My father told me that the moment the car racers steps on the engine, they are already risking their life. If a woman who delivers a baby is believed to have her one foot on the grave while delivering, it’s the same with the V8 Supercars drivers. My father added that when the race starts, the only thing that is on a V8 Supercars racer is the finish line. He doesn’t think of anything that might happen during the race. When the announcement of the start of the race was heard, I focused my attention on the cars running down on the race track.. If I didn’t know that someone was inside, I would see the cars as I see the toy cars of my little brother. As the cars safely passed the 2nd lap I prayed but even before I can finish my prayer, two cars crashed. The race continued but my attention was no longer in the race but on the two cars surrounded by a team of rescuers and paramedics. There were other three cars that crashed before the race ended. On our way home, my father asked me why I was so silent. I told him my concern and he laughed loudly. He told me that the drivers are fine and would survive with broken bones and bruises. He casually added that it is what makes V8 Supercars exciting. After telling me that, he again focused his attention on the road. The moment I was able to touch my personal computer I immediately searched for videos of V8 Supercars. What surprised me is that most videos that came out are about crashes during the race. There are those that flared up after crushing and there are those that simply turned upside down.

True indeed that there are those that simply obtain bruises while others obtain more serious injuries and most of those racers meeting accidents come back to race again. I know you are going to ask why this people come back for more. My answer is that they belong to the non most but it doesn’t mean that they don’t value their lives. They do, thru the crashing excitement that V8 Supercars can bring them.
