Last post by mikeamerica84 - April 08, 2024, 10:49:56 AMWell, it is the down time between races. I'll take that as a compliment, though. 
Full eclipse tomorrow here in the Midwest! We'll be drinking beers and looking upwards at 1500 hours local time. And yes..... we will have those 3D looking glasses.
Amazing that we are on different sides of the Earth but still see the same Moon and Sun at different times. You guys are in the southern hemisphere of the globe. Upside down. When I was a little guy I was always wondering how you do not fall off.

Repco Supercars Championship / Re: Silly Season 2024
Last post by skaifeman - April 08, 2024, 10:36:50 AMKostecki in the seat for Taupo. Interestingly, he's quoted as saying he needed time to "prioritise my health."
I feel like, if it was the ****show as rumoured, why would Erebus or Brodie even go down that path of saying that? Why poke the bear again?

Last post by TheArrow - April 07, 2024, 06:51:13 PMTHE ARROW MOTORSPORT ANNOUNCES MAJOR CHANGES TO TEAM AFTER JUST TWO ROUNDS
New drivers, new liveries early in 2024 season.
The Arrow Motorsport has pulled no punches in their attempts to return to the top step after another tough start to the season. It was announced today that a driver shuffle has occurred with two new drivers joining the team.
Announcing the departure of two of their previous drivers with the arrival of two new drivers is a step in a different direction for the team, who has generally stuck with the same drivers for full seasons in what appeared to be a show of loyalty.
"I am someone that respects loyalty, I don't like letting drivers go who are underperforming. I think we've only done it a handful of times since the team was formed 16 years ago" said TheArrow.
"But at the same time, we need to show that we still have the ambition - the ability - to win in this series. We had to make drastic changes. We're a championship winning team. We're a Tournament winning team. We challenged for the series in 2017. But, honestly, results have been tough since then. We only won a single race last season. It's not good enough."
Along with the announcement of new drivers was the reveal of three brand new liveries for the teams Genesis G70 Supercars. It was not known the team was looking at redesigning the cars, and today's livery launch was somewhat of a surprise for the media.
Gone are the angular, striking blue/green, yellow and white blocky lines, replaced with a sharp and eye-catching two tone split livery. The team's now signature blue/green on one half, complimented by a black opposite half. The two Arrow Productions sponsored cars are a reverse of each other, while the Mint Fresh G70 has the black front, with a greener coloured rear.
TheArrow revealed that this may not be the only livery change this season.
"We're working on our Indigenous design, and might play around a little with some other themed designs throughout the remainder of this season."
The series heads to New Zealand in 2 weeks time.
2017 Tournament Champions / 2022 Race 1 - Sydney Motorsport Park - Race Winner / 2022 Race 3 - Symmons Plains - Race Winner / 2022 Race 3 - Wanneroo - Race Winner / 2023 Race 1 - The Bend Motorsport Park - Race Winner / 2023 - Best Presented Team Winner
