   Which generation of Supercars is the best? | V8SP Q&A

   JACK Perkins is in the hot seat for this Q&A edition of the V8 Sleuth Podcast, powered by Parramatta Toyota, and he answers your questions, including which generation of car he's enjoyed most and which he's enjoyed least. The V8 Sleuth himself, Aaron Noonan, is pressed on a possible early start to his V8 Supercars commentary career, then there’s the option of pairing lead drivers in the Supercars enduros, and eliminating double stacking at Bathurst. Jack delves into the grey area of the rulebook, drivers picking their own race numbers, and drivers winning with more than two different manufacturers. What is the worst “best” finish from a manufacturer in Bathurst 1000 history, plus, who has led the most racing laps without winning a race? Make sure those questions continue to pour in – keep an eye out for upcoming Q&A shoutouts! The V8 Sleuth Podcast is powered by Parramatta Toyota, Sydney's Toyota dealer with a passion for performance and motorsport.

   Supercars Finals & Team Orders | The Undercut

   THE Supercars Finals have landed for 2026, leaving plenty to unpack in this week’s episode of The Undercut! The V8 Sleuth Aaron Noonan is once again joined on the desk by Jack Perkins, who looks at the touchy subject of team orders when it comes to the Finals, Chevrolet’s need for a new calculator, and just how long is Chaz Mostert’s memory? The race to the Finals saw some big misses, plus Jarrod Hughes and Cooper Murray get their flowers, while the lads ran their rule over the contestants vying to get to Adelaide. Noonz takes a closer look at the famed Green Eyed Monster at the National Motor Racing Museum, while all of the key numbers from the Gold Coast are crunched for MySupercars. In a new segment, the lid is lifted on the GR Cup, with the one-make Toyota racers set to decide a new champion at the Sandown 500 meet. Jack is put to the test in the NTK Workbench; there are our Ryco Performers of the week, plus we drive into the vault for some champagne Sandown V8 Utes madness. This is V8 Sleuth’s look at the world of Supercars, with angles you won’t get anywhere else, backed by analysis and numbers! Agree/disagree with our takes? Let us know in the comments!
