    New Supercars recruit Jaxon Evans is grateful he has motorsport in his veins


    The Manawatu native will become the 5th Kiwi on the Supercars grid for next season after moving from Europe where he's been driving Porches.

    Evans was always going to be a 'foot to the floor' driver given his grandparents Rob and Wendy Lester were founding members of the famous Manfeild circuit.
