The V8 Supercars Championship will be in test mode this week as teams continue preparations for the Pirtek Enduro Cup.
Every team is scheduled to run its cars across the next eight days ahead of the Sandown 500 on September 13-15.
Brad Jones Racing, which also tested last Tuesday, will share Winton Motor Raceway with Ford Performance Racing today.
The Ford team will then back up for a ride day at the rural Victorian venue on Tuesday.
Although not set to run a dedicated test before Sandown, Nissan Motorsport will also be in action today, running a ride day of its own at Calder Park.
Queensland Raceway is scheduled to see Red Bull Racing Australia, Tekno Autosports, Erebus Motorsport and Dick Johnson Racing all turning laps on Tuesday.
A pre-Sandown hit-out for Garry Rogers Motorsport, Holden Racing Team/Supercheap Auto Racing and Tony D’Alberto Racing Holdens on Wednesday at Winton will complete a busy three days of track action.
The only team not running its cars in the next three days, Lucas Dumbrell Motorsport, is scheduled to do so on the Tuesday of Sandown race week.
The late test will allow the United States-based Matthew Halliday to sample Dean Fiore’s Dodo LDM Holden for the first time.
Tekno’s internationals Marc Lieb and Jeroen Bleekemolen, as well as Supercheap Auto Racing’s Ryan Briscoe, will not have their first drives in their respective cars until Friday practice at Sandown.
