What part, or parts, on the race cars does Holden make??..... (or Ford, or Nissan, or Volvo)....

Tail lights and door handles are about it.....


Care factor??? 0%. I don't watch it to go buy one. Those days finished in the late 80's

True, and it can still be good to watch, but the attachment of a brand to any of the teams is purely symbolic.

The category is irrelevant, and dying. Having said that, there will be beer consumed in my shed today....again....

Bacon and eggs on toast with the usual trimmings - complete!

Now to settle in to the favourite seat and watch the race! SWMBO will bring the required treats throughout the day!!

SWMBO and the kids will disappear to the shops at some stage to give me some piece and quiet!

I think a volvo will win.

Dog/house sitting for a mate who has gone to Bathurst. Best thing is he has Foxtel...

And yes, I also thing that McLaughlin will do better than he has done with Volvo - in part to spite Volvo Sweden for pulling support. (And I will be going for them as I always have)

Coffee in bed as the Porsche race was on, roll out of bed at 9.40 a.m and cook up some bacon, eggs and tomato for brekky, then sit down on the lounge to eat brekky just as they do the warm up lap...perfect timing I reckon  8)

He asked me if I would do it for him on Friday as he's been on call for the last 4 Bathursts. I was feeling charitable at the time... Now I'm feeling stupid

Must be getting older....or bored....turned it off while I have a lunchtime snooze.

Turn it back in for the most exciting bit....the last couple of hours.

Go the blue team  :cheers:
