Get ready for an exciting reveal from Toyota as they unveil the race-ready version of the Supercars Supra! This iconic vehicle has undergone rigorous testing, most notably at the Windshear facility in the United States, where it was compared head-to-head with other performance giants like the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro.
Recently, Toyota took to Facebook to share stunning new renderings that showcase the final aerodynamic package approved for the Supra, highlighting its sleek design and performance enhancements. The images depict the car sporting a fresh livery from factory-Toyota Gazoo Racing Australia, featuring bold splashes of red and white that beautifully contrast with the black used during the initial testing phases.
As anticipation builds for the Supra’s official entry into the Supercars series, the homologation team, Walkinshaw Andretti United (WAU), is diligently collaborating with Supercars to finalize the engine specifications. Last year saw extensive testing for the Supra, including valuable off-season runs at the Winton circuit, ensuring that the car is fine-tuned for optimal performance.
Before the season kicks off, the Supra will be put through its paces in real-world comparison tests against its competitors, the Mustang and Camaro, at notable tracks such as Queensland Raceway and Mount Panorama. This crucial testing phase aims to ensure parity among these formidable vehicles, allowing fans and drivers alike to anticipate an exhilarating competition ahead.
The Toyotas will be fielded by WAU, which is set to rebrand as Walkinshaw TWG Racing, alongside Brad Jones Racing, who recently provided updates on their progress with the Supra build program.
