Young South Australian driver Tom Drewer is to make his V8 Supercar debut at Wakefield Park this weekend (March 31-April1) in the Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series.
Drewer, 23 has been given the opportunity by Prodigy Motorsport, and will line up in the Ford Falcon used to good effect by Channel 7 star Grant Denyer last year.
‘It’s the start of a dream coming true for me, but I have to be realistic and without the benefit of a testing program I don’t have unreal expectations for my first drive in a V8 Supercar’, Drewer said today.
‘The fact that the car was driven by Grant Denyer is a good omen as my mum Jacquie is a television producer at Channel 7 in Adelaide so it’s all in the family’, Drewer quipped.
‘My grandfather built and raced cars, and so did my father Mike who is the PR Manager for the V8 Supercars at the Clipsal 500 Adelaide and the Darwin V8 Supercar event’.
