CHRYSLER & JEEP

When it comes to iconic vehicle marques, Jeep stands out from the crowd. With 2011 marking its 70th anniversary, the brand is celebrating in style with an ever-growing range including Patriot, Compass (coming soon), Wrangler, Wrangler Unlimited, Cherokee and the stunning all-new Grand Cherokee that was crowned Australia’s 2011 4x4 of the Year. Be sure to keep an eye out for this sensational model making its debut as the event’s official off-track vehicle.

And when it comes to on-track action of the four-wheeled variety, the senses will be delighted by a fleet of 300C SRT8 Chryslers. Despite the 6.1L HEMI V8s delivering 317kW, 569 Nm, low five second 0-100 acceleration and Brembo braking as standard, the Safety Cars have been treated to some tasty Mopar Performance upgrades, including cold-air intake, headers, exhaust and trick suspension. And their drivers will be easily identified by plastered grins!
