(Gibson) AC/DC frontman and fast car enthusiast Brian Johnson wants to take part in Australia's V8 Supercar series.

According to Undercover.fm, Johnson spoke to Australia's Watcha News and said, "last year we were talking about race series I could do. Australian V8 Supercars came up and I'd love to have a shot in one of them. It's going to be quite a year. My season will start in Florida, where I live, and with a bit of luck it could end up in a V8 supercar Down Under."

Johnson went on to explain the similarities between racing and rock and roll: "I love the atmosphere with an audience in our rock concerts. Translate that audience to the racetrack. It would be amazing. I've tried NASCAR at Indianapolis. That gets your arse twitching like a rabbit's nose. I just loved it. Like NASCAR, V8 Supercars have a lot of power there and all the cars are pretty equal so that's what makes it so exciting to watch." more on this story
