Repco Supercars Championship / All Time Best Liveries
December 30, 2021, 11:54:08 PM
There was a thread on the old website i believe but not on the new one. Anyway it is the off season so let's take a trip down memory lane. Here's some beauties of the last 10 or so years.
First that comes to mind is Frosty from 2012

Another good one is Brighty from 2009

HRT's 2016 car was looking sharp

Lastly I think that Courntey's Jim Beam Falcon from 2010 is right up there.

Ok so I've read a Speedcafe article which says that there is a new REC system which caps the grid at 26 cars. This infuriates me since the days of Bathurst having 30, 40, or even 50 cars are over. Most fans are in the same boat as me. What a way to piss off long-term fans.

Repco Supercars Championship / Ideal 2022 Calendar
July 31, 2021, 11:29:13 PM
In a world without Covid, let's say somehow everyone gets vaccinated or it goes away (imagine), is there a possibility Supercars will do something new with the calendar?

New Zealand double header is an amazing idea. Do Pukekohe one week and then Hampton Downs the next - give our kiwi fans a fix!

Anyway go ahead, where would you like Supercars to go in 2022?

Repco Supercars Championship / Mostert vs Waters
May 18, 2021, 10:36:52 PM
Hey all,

Mostert and Waters keep on crashing into each other, they are bloody magnets! I seriously believe that a rivalry has to be forming, just recall:
Bathurst 2017 - wet weather restart crash at hell corner midway through the race
Pukekohe 2017 - pile up at hairpin
Bathurst 2018 - Mostert acts like an idiot and crashes the #6 at Forrest Elbow
Pukekohe 2019 - both cars up front touch and go off onto the grass
Bathurst 2019 - late race crash rules both out of winning the Bathurst 1000
Adelaide 2020 - new teams, aggressive racing after pit stops
Sandown 2021 - Mostert turns Waters and ruins chances of making top step of podium
The Bend 2021 - Sladey makes a mistake and both drivers react, driving into each other

I believe Mostert's racing is fast and aggressive and Waters needs to be more careful, but this totally depends on which side of the fence you are on. Take a look at this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnEzGSozVa8

Anyway what do you all reckon? One more crash and its gonna explode!
