The wait is over - this Sunday at 5pm on 7mate is the debut of Shannons Supercar Showdown.

Meet the contestants who will battle it out for a spot on the grid at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 alongside host Grant Denyer. Each young driver has their own story and they've come from far and wide to compete this unique driving competition.

Before they hit the circuit they must prove their skill on the road, with the first challenge a learner driver test. For some of the contestants, driving on the streets instead of the track will prove tougher than it looks. One contestant could be going home before they've even settled in.

Also in this episode, take a look behind the scenes of the Kelly Racing operation and find out more about what goes on behind closed doors at a V8 Supercars team.

oh man it was bad to watch, especially with the core concept that the Kelly's have done it hard on their way to the top.

my favourite thing (reality tv) has just collided with my least favourite thing (racing). what a nasty crash

I'm glad I missed it.

Gotta say though, I didn't pick you for a big reality tv fan. :P

yeah fingers crossed too....I guess any mainstream coverage of motorsport (from whatever angle) is a good thing....it was just a bit cringeworthy.

And I have to get my dose of reality from TV.....I'm pretty sure I work in disneyland.

    • Yeah it was a good result, and confirming the car is full of fluids and all interior etc in, other than fuel. I think a few pages back (maybe many pages!) he mentioned some serious lightening in the doors with the chassis punch, might have been done elsewhere I hadn't seen yet too
    • He still had the suspension dialled in for him! I would have sworn the lowest weight he ever got to was 1300kg though Maybe Neil had been drilling a LOT of holes somewhere you haven't found yet... 😛 Or has he also drained all the gearbox and diff oil out too, between it, and a tank full of fuel there's about 65kg to 70kg to add back in I'd guess. 😛
    • Yeah this isn't a super complex shape, but I was still happy to buy instead of fab version 1; very little in a modern can is a flat surface, and that is true here again - the undertray has about 50mm in height differences that I would have had to work out myself. I will probably make something more substantial before it does any rally, I don't think 1mm steel is too much use as a bash plate. There is also cooling to think about, Z1 have done a bit of development and have some air holes and louvers in the shape, will see how that works out too
    • If it's been tuned idle rpm can be changed.
    • Very slightly as there are bars connecting both sides of the ramp. The only difficulty that I had was doing the gearbox, everything else so far has been ok
