Since its inception in 2007, the Touring Car Masters has rapidly grown to become one of Australia's premier racing categories, and one of the most popular and spectacular V8 Supercar support classes.
The series emerged as the Touring Car Masters for its inaugural season in 2007. It has pioneered a new class of racing by introducing innovative technical regulations aiming to improve safety and reliability and provide an exciting and entertaining race package. The Biante Touring Car Masters immediately struck a winning formula, with its mix of classic hero cars and modern improvements, such as disc brakes, dry-sumped engines and radial tyres, producing intense, dynamic racing right from the outset. Since then, the popular series has continued to go from strength-to-strength, lifting the class to become a successful and highly-competitive category. |
