New Panoz Roadster |
Testing Already |
|
John Nielsen tested the new 4 litre Panoz V8 in an existing Roadster at Brands Hatch right at the beginning of November. Now it seems that David Brabham has already tested the all new Roadster – at the MIRA test track in the UK. No news on the outcome of that test, but the new car is being shipped to the US for further testing, which could well take place at Sebring within the next fortnight.
Six weeks to Christmas means just over six weeks to the car’s debut at Adelaide. Audi, look out. Panoz Motor Sport did some remarkable things with the original Roadster and its ‘old’ V8; now they’ve got something to really bring out the best from the German squad. And Panoz ought to have an advantage in the cockpit, too; Brabham and Magnussen are more than a match for anyone, and the second car could have a stronger line-up than in 2000. |
