Super Soft tyres and Gen3 will make their track debuts at the upcoming Penrite Oil Sandown SuperSprint.
Sandown International Raceway will host Round 9 of the 2022 season next weekend.
It will be the 52nd ATCC/Supercars round at the Melbourne circuit.
Event track action will be spread over three days, with Supercars featuring on each day.
Friday action will include the first and only Additional Driver session of the season.
Bathurst co-drivers will cut their only event laps before October's Repco Bathurst 1000.
The likes of Bathurst winners Jamie Whincup, Garth Tander, Craig Lowndes and Greg Murphy will all be in action.
The August 19-21 event will be headlined by Races 24, 25 and 26 of the 2022 Repco Supercars Championship.
The whole weekend will be run on the Dunlop Super Soft tyre.
The event recently reverted to Super Soft tyres, having initially been slated as a Soft tyre round.
The Gen3 prototypes will also cut their first laps of Sandown, continuing an extensive running programme.
The cars recently hit the track for dedicated sessions at the OTR SuperSprint in Tailem Bend.
Shane van Gisbergen will arrive at Sandown, where he won three races in 2021, with a 393-point lead.
The 2022 season will resume at Sandown on August 19-21. Purchase your tickets now.
