It could be interesting to see how the new NZ V8 stacks up against the NZ Supertourer when the wraps come off it. Sounds like a much more production based car, but details very sketchy at the moment. But looking at the entry list so far for the NZV8ST, if all of the names who have signed up, front up with the cash then it certainly looks like they will have stolen the thunder from the NZV8's! Interesting times ahead for sure
When you say "It could be interesting to see how the new NZ V8 stacks up against the NZ Supertourer when the wraps come off it. Sounds like a much more production based car..." you have lost me. I know there was a meeting recently to discuss class rule changes and I don't know what the outcome was. Exactly what is the "new NZ V8"?

Also, the NZST is definitely not a sanctioned series and they can not offer a "New Zealand Championship" title because of that.
