Casey Stoner unveils his V8 Supercar (w/video)

Casey Stoner will be joining the line of other two-wheel champions like Wayne Gardner, Mick Doohan, Aaron Slight and Troy Bayliss trying his luck in racing V8 Supercars in Australia.
The former two-time MotoGP champion who retired at the end of the 2012 season revealed his #27 Red Bull Racing Holden Commodore VE (the 2010 version that Craig Lowndes drove) and that he’ll be debuting this weekend in the streets of Adelaide in the Clipsal 500 race, after recently taking part in private tests at Bathhurst and Willowbank.

Practice begins on Thursday and his first race will be on Friday.
“It’s going to be a big learning experience in a short period of time,” said Stoner.
“I’m looking forward to ripping around the streets and it being legal, it should be a bit of fun.
Stoner has a one year deal with the team and will be racing in all seven rounds, and for MotoGP fans there is still some dim hope that the Australian champion may decide to wildcard in a couple of races.
