#V8 SUPERCARS RACING GAME SERIES#
Championship era įrom 2002, the event became an official V8 Supercars championship round, with the series given equal billing to the CART event. Due to the often crash-filled nature of the rounds, its non-championship status and the relatively quick turn-around time between the event and the Bathurst 1000, some teams used older model cars at the event, such as in 1999 when Paul Radisich won the event with a 1998-spec Ford EL Falcon, instead of their usual AU Falcon. The 1998 event was notable for providing Mark Larkham with the only event win of his decade-long full-time touring car career, albeit at a non-championship event. From 1997 onwards, the event returned to solely featuring five-litre ATCC cars, the category that was now known as V8 Supercars. Greg Murphy won the Super Touring event in both years for Brad Jones Racing. In the next two years, cars from the two-litre Australian Super Touring Championship were a support category at the event in 1995 as the sole touring car category and in 1996 one of two touring car support categories alongside the return of the ATCC cars. The event, featuring cars from the ATCC, was run as a non-championship exhibition round, supporting the then CART FedEx Championship Series event. The Gold Coast Indy 300 was first run in 1991, however it was not until 1994 that touring cars joined the event. The track held numerous rounds of the Australian Touring Car Championship (ATCC), a previous incarnation of Supercars, between 19. The Gold Coast, of which Surfers Paradise is a suburb, had long had an association with touring cars through Surfers Paradise International Raceway in the suburb of Carrara.
