V8 Supercars Chairman Tony Cochrane said, “V8 Supercars is very pleased to announce Etihad Airways as our official international airline partner. It is the first airline partner for our sport and we believe it is a fitting partnership between a world-class operator and a world-class sport. Cochrane continued, “Earlier this year approximately 500 V8 Supercars personnel flew to Abu Dhabi on-board Etihad flights for the Yas Marina V8 400 and our experience was second to none. We look forward to V8 Supercar fans being given access to exclusive deals and offers as a result of our new partnership with the airline.” V8 Supercars was recently given international status by the FIA, the governing body of world motor sports, which means it can extend to another five destinations outside Abu Dhabi, Australia and New Zealand. In this context, Etihad’s partnership matches the huge growth potential and future international destinations of the sport. Globally, Etihad’s partnership with V8 Supercars will be highlighted through signage and promotions at select V8 Supercar events and content on Etihad’s in-flight entertainment system. In the coming weeks, V8 Supercars’ website will also carry links to special offers on Etihad Airways flights around the world.

It was a wet morning as we all made our way to the rendezvous point in the eastern part of our little island. Great, now how on earth are we going to enjoy driving with the roof down in such crappy weather? Well, let’s just say the dude above wanted us to have a blast, so lo and behold, the weather stopped almost instantly by the time we arrived. Well, you should know what wet roads lead to – over steering antics, that sort. In the case of the 370Z and the Boxster S, it wasn't hard. Switch off the traction control, floor the pedal at the right time, steer with confidence and tadaa… “dorift-o”, as what Krado would say. Not so easy with the four-wheel driven TTS though – but a little pull of the handbrake with no traction control will see it go sideways, although not as spectacular as the other two.

To get higher octane from premium fuel, most will add a bottle of octane booster. VP Racing has a strong reputation with fuels and its high octane formulas are very popular in racing. Adding their C5 Octane Booster to a tank of fuel will increase the octane ratings by 3.3 RON, thanks to the effective MMT agent (Methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl), which is proven to deliver the greatest octane boost. The C5 Octane Booster is capable of boosting octane up to eight numbers for increased performance while providing lead lubrication. Increased fuel octane helps to eliminate pre-ignition and detonation, which translates into more horsepower and torque. More than just increasing octane ratings, it also provides upper cylinder lubrication especially for older engines and protects it from valve seat recession.
