??

Not sure what happened to the first thread? Seems to have disappeared somewhere.

A tad moist yesterday but drying track for the day so far today.

Big crash in the utes yesterday... esp the crash into t8 wall and then a secondary crash for the same ute at t9 when he got collected. the vision was a bit inconclusive as to what happened... did the 2nd car lock up and just slide into him? the little vision that they did play the ute seemed to almost go over sideways when it got t-boned!

Trev started the original thread a couple of days ago.  I think anyone who starts a thread has the ability to remove it.

For whatever reason.

maybe just coz it is Friday but there doesn't appear to be much in the way of patronage in the shots of the crowd areas?

Thomas Randle has really stepped up the past few rounds. I would love to see this continue into 2024!

Kostecki, Feeney, Brown, Waters, Randle, Payne, Mostert, de Pasquale - this would be amazing to see these guys all battling in 2024

Most people are definitely sleeping on Thomas Randle. He's got pretty impressive junior credentials so I'm not surprised with his recent results.

He should be even stronger next year in a 2 car team instead of being the 3/4 car in a 4 car team.

A real shame, I was pumped for some tight racing in this race.

Unsure how I feel about the incident, was Will being too aggressive? Seems a bit silly in all honesty.

I called a SVG DNF turn 8, man was I wrong

3 races is all it took for the GM crowd to complain on the socials that parity went too far the other way.  ;D

Congratulation Cam for the win, Brodie and the Erebus team for taking out the drivers championship.

Will B's front right got tripped up on Anton's rear left and fired him into the wall. Cam dodged but SVG was caught out.

Only 4 turns off.

Bit of a let down, but that's racing.
Brodie was able to reduce the risk of anyone else's incident by putting it on the front row.


He cruised from there. And funnily enough, it was just about the same 4 teams at the front, just someone else did the winning.

I was going to say Troy is 75% right. The DNF (50%) but in half the corners (25%).

Well done to Erebus and Grove Racing for the weekend.

Interesting coincidence; when we thought SVG was leaving back in 2012 he had a double DNF on the streets of Olympic Park. Now he is actually leaving he has had a double DNF on the streets of Adelaide. They were only two multi-race events of his Supercars career where he failed to score points.
