An emerging category on to the historic racing scene in Australia is the 5.0 Litre touring cars. Not yet officially designated by the governing body as a 5th Category Historic grid, the eligibility for this category is a touring car that competed in the Australian Touring Car Championship between 1993-2002.
Starting in Victoria, the category has had demonstration events at Historic Sandown in 2013, the 2014 Phillip Island Classic, and Winton Festival of Speed in 2014.
