Published: April 18, 2024, 10:20 p.m.

This weekend will see up to 70,000 fans pouring into Taupo to catch the Supercars event.\xa0

Jaxon Evans, a third-generation kiwi racer, won the Porsche Carrera Cup Australia Championship in 2018, and is back this weekend to compete for Brad Jones Racing.\xa0

He told Mike Hosking that this is actually his first race at Taupo, having spectated a few races but never running the track himself.\xa0

Evans said that while those who know the track may have a slight advantage, none of them have run the current cars so it\u2019ll be a clean slate for everyone.\xa0
