All five manufacturers will be taking part, with Ford launching their new FG X Falcon V8 Supercar, which will be raced by Prodrive Racing Australia (PRA) led by Mark Winterbottom and returning NASCAR star Marcos Ambrose in the DJR Team Penske entry.
Also launching at SuperTest is New Zealand based Super Black Racing, as a part of the PRA stable.

Fox Sports will televise Sunday live from 9am to 4pm including an hour long season preview show, an introduction to some of the new technology and innovation and the very first ARMOR ALL SuperShootout of the year; a full field Shootout over one flying lap.
On top of all the on-track action there will be plenty of off-track highlights, including Merchandise Alley where fans can be the first to get their hands on 2015 merchandise, Red Bull Stunt Plane demonstrations, Panthers World of Entertainment display where you can meet Penrith’s NRL stars and the True Colour Track Walk on Sunday.
