Experienced Supercars driver Tim Slade is expecting an "unpredictable" pair of season-opening races in Newcastle as the category transitions to a new type of car.
Slade, who has twice finished on the podium at the Newcastle 500 - which returns on March 10-12 for the first time since 2019 - will bring up his 400th Supercars start at the event, driving for a new team in PremiAir Racing and in the Chevrolet Camaro, which has replaced the Holden Commodore.
