Top Gun air show at Wilson Security Sandown 500

Australia's Top Gun Matt Hall will rev up V8 Supercar fans this weekend, taking to the skies to perform a thrilling air show at theWilson Security Sandown 500.

Hall's spine-tingling aerial stunts and acrobatics will have fans on the edge of the seats, delivering the high-octane entertainment V8 Supercar supportersknow and love by reaching speeds of over 400 kilometres an hour above the race precinct.

With the epic aerial display revving up the crowd before the V8 Supercars take to the track to battle it out in the intense qualifying sessions on Saturday and the massive 500km haul on Sunday, V8 Supercars General Manager of Events Phil Shaw said the Sandown 500 would be an action-packed weekend not to be missed.

"It's wonderful to have Matt bring his stunning air show back to V8 Supercars to help kick off our season of endurance," he said.

"Race-goers will have the luxury of witnessing one of the best in the world perform a spectacular show in the sky, followed up by the greatest show on wheels on the ground.

"It'll be a weekend of non-stop horsepower and action - a race fan's dream!"

As a former RAAF Fighter Combat instructor, Hall was the first Australian to ever successfully compete in the Red Bull Air Race World Championship, finishing a Red Bull race and the entire season on the podium as a rookie.

Drawing upon his 25 years of aircraft experience, Hall said he is looking forward to showcasing his highly acclaimed air show at the Wilson Security Sandown 500.

"I really enjoy bringing my airshow to the V8 Supercar events," he said.

"The fans here have a need for speed, so it's a real buzz to come to an event where the crowd really appreciates what they're seeing and how quick we get up in the sky.

"The plane we'll be taking up is the MXS-R, which is the fastest and most powerful in the country, so to have it on offer alongside Australia's best motor racing category is a pretty cool match-up!"
