Erebus Motorsport subject of comprehensive new documentary series
Dark Horse: Erebus Motorsport, Out of the Shadows set to premiere next month
Series to premiere on Kayo Sports, BINGE and Foxtel from September 12
Erebus Motorsport will be subject of one of most "comprehensive and revealing Supercars documentaries ever produced.
A new three-part documentary series, titled Dark Horse: Erebus Motorsport, Out of the Shadows, is set to premiere in the lead-up to this year’s Repco Bathurst 1000.
The series will premiere on Kayo Sports, BINGE and Foxtel from September 12.
It's the fourth documentary series centred on the Betty Klimenko-owned team, after 2019's Inside Line, 2022's Access All Areas, and 2022's Wildcard: One Last Shot.
Dark Horse was produced independently by Apatchie Media, which produced sports documentaries such as GAZE: The First Family of Australian Basketball, Everything is Possible: Inside Suncorp Super Netball and Dream Big: Inside NBL25.
The latest documentary features close to 50 interviews with 39 key figures, including drivers, Supercars executives, competitors, and pivotal Erebus personalities.
Betty and Daniel Klimenko, Barry Ryan, Ryan Maddison, Campbell Little, Ben Croke, Craig Baird and David Stuart all feature throughout the series.
Drivers David Reynolds, Brodie Kostecki, Will Brown, Will Davison, Anton De Pasquale, Lee Holdsworth, Maro Engel and Peter Hackett were all interviewed, as were the likes of Tony Cochrane, Roland Dane, James Warburton, Michael Masi, Ryan Story and Shane Howard.
“I funded this project, my intent was that I didn’t want a glossy version of Erebus, I wanted the truth," Betty Klimenko said.
"The highs, the chaos, the stuff people don’t usually have the guts to show. This team has been misunderstood, written off, and talked about more than most, but no one sees what I see, the heart, the fight, the family.
"This isn’t about cleaning up our story, it’s about owning it. Every bloody part of it."

Producer Andrew Janson added: “Betty and Daniel Klimenko need to be commended for letting us tell the Erebus story.
"A lot of people checked in with Betty to ask what she was happy for them to talk about and they were met with the response of ‘whatever you want’. The end result is a genuine insight into Erebus’ history and unpacks some of the most talked about stories in Supercars rich history.
“The biggest challenge was deciding which stories stayed and which had to be left out. We’re extremely proud of the final cut, we’ve made sure every topic fans want to hear about made it in, I think people will be very surprised at how deep and detailed this documentary is."
Marissa Banu-Lawrence, Foxtel Group Head of Content Acquisitions, said: “As the major broadcast partner for Supercars, we are committed to delivering the most comprehensive motorsport coverage in Australia.
"This new documentary, premiering on Kayo Sports and BINGE, lifts the curtain on one of Supercars’ most intriguing teams, giving fans unprecedented access to the behind-the-scenes drama and passion that drives the sport.
"Not only does this add incredible depth to our motorsport offering, but it’s also a fantastic way to introduce new audiences to the excitement of Supercars.”
