Quote from: CP on February 07, 2024, 05:46:41 PMIs there truth to the speculation that the end of season celebrations got a bit out of hand?

That's what I heard

Quote from: Trevor on October 09, 2023, 06:01:01 AMWith all the '60 year' celebrations going on, did anyone notice the lack of talk of Mclaughlin?  There was a piece on all the best pasts of the last 60, but nothing about McLaughlin - Penske obviously upset Skaife on the way out

To be fair, he only won one race there. He's a fair bit down the Bathurst pecking order.

His 2017 top ten got a bit of a mention though, and deservedly so

Generally a disappointing race, but not surprising.

Although a late race safety car may have spiced it up.

The cars clearly are not even.

Nostalgia / Allan Moffat’s battle

I found this a tough watch. Dementia is awful.

All the best Allan. And kudos to all of his carers.

I don't get why teams keep drivers out for so long when the timing proves they are losing time to those who stopped early.
Because they need to change to hards & that would make them even slower.


Dare I bring up parity? I think the Mustangs need a bit more..

I agree.

At the track the last couple of days, I'm not sure it's an aero tweak though. Not convinced they have engine parity yet...

Yeah I've since read this and have changed my mind on Shane!

Skaifey has to be careful with the amount of hats he's wearing

This might need a separate thread, but what annoyed me this weekend was the attitude to the press and their fans of both SVG and DJR.

DJR got the sulks yesterday and wouldn't comment to anyone and SVG today, obviously has the ****s about yesterday and maybe some GEN 3 stuff, but you have a duty to promote the sport and communicate with fans. Without them, you wouldn't earn a living doing it.

As for today, the SVG move was just on the right side of borderline, he did get a bit of a squeeze.

Cam can't make a mistake like that if he wants to win the title, that was a win for the taking. Percat is in deep trouble unless he can turn it around. Bit like Dan Ric in F1, his lack of form seems to be a mystery to his team and himself.

Premair and Erebus had good weekends. I really rate Golding, good to see him translate one lap pace into a result. And Grove are going to be a serious team moving forward

And DJR 🤮

I'm hearing both cars have been disqualified

Speedcafe are reporting more front downforce for Camaro. No changes to Mustang.

Lol

Weird seeing the #2 on a Ford

Trying to think back, maybe Masterton 1984 was the last

Fair to say Jake Kostecki isn't a winner from the gala

So rumours of altercation with Pye are more than rumour?  And he has been shown the door by Tickford?

Apparently

To both
