Well Brett and I were at Bathurst today - talk about 4 seasons in one day!  The shower of rain in the shootout certainly put a cat amongst the pigeons.  Can't wait to watch the big race up close and personal tomorrow! Go the Holdens!!!  :cup:

Hey Jillsy, are you guys (sorry, you're Queenslanders) are YOUSE guys camping at the track? How is it noise wise from other campers (p!ss-heads) and space and facilities? Am contemplating going there and staying maybe in the motorhome part.

Hope you have a top day tomorrow. Should be a blast! Hopefully the weather will behave.

Just been watching the Touring Car Masters.  What a field,  Seton, Bowe, Richards, Richards & Miedecke.  Seton's XB coupe looks horn and his old man Bo has lost none of his engine building skill, that coupe had some serious curry down Conrod.


In the last 10 years only a 888 or HRT car have won bathurst (the Kmart cars of 03 & 04) were built and run by HRT), so here's hoping neither finish first.

Fingers crossed for the #9 SBR car or as a bit of an outsider, one of the DJR cars.

Yeah 10% off the pace of the main game for an almost 40 year old car isn't bad.

Bunch of girls in shopping trolleys, now Bathurst on a motorcycle, you'll really know your alive after a lap >:D

I watch the first 5 laps, then wait till they put a highlights package together, otherwise it's as boring as batShit, I love the tech side of it, the lead up, but that's about it.

I went there in 73 and 77 for the cars and 81, 83, 85, 86, 88 and 94 for the bikes, would never ever go to the cars ever again, too many ****wits >:D >:D >:D Holden V Ford what a joke >:D
