Well, will the Mustangs or Supra win, or will Chev pull something out of their arses?

Well this might be like comparing apples to bananas, but last year Broc Feeney (in a Camaro) had a really good round, winning two of the three.  Teammate Will was also good.  A close running second camp was actually Tickford.  Matt Payne took the third race.

I'll stick my neck out, Trev, but I am tipping a Ford whitewash of the weekend.

Fox and Kayo, Trev. The only events on FTA are: Sydney (done), Townsville, Bathurst, Gold Coast, Adelaide.

Great picture of Marcos, Mike!

It's mad how much money GM are spending on teams that will never consistently be on top.

They're hoping for a miracle but betting on donkey's instead of horses.

Ford 1-2-3, Toyota to struggle unless they have found more power in that engine.

14/15/16c overcast... should be good weather for the engines...

83/87/90% humidity... so cold and ugly for the fans... pretty much standard Tassie fare LOL

Hey Trev.  I just made the thread for the Excellence Awards for Round 5 - Symmons Plains.  You have us at Round 6 in your title.  Not that it matters mind you, but to the novice this could be detrimental.  Good thing we are all experts here on V8 Central.

a mostly uneventful day it seems.

kinda cool to have BJR snag the 100th win... good to have Andre back on the top step

the ute roll was an 'interesting' one. didn't look all that bad on initial watching but that landing had to have been hard through the seat/spine :( hope Justin fares well after a night of care in the hospital

Never underestimate Supercars moving the goal posts. What was predicted to be a blue wash this year. Supercars has never moved so fast to reintroduce BOP parity.

They slipped that Toyota adjustment in right before the weekend.

long race and no SC so at least it was a clean fight.

seems we had another roll in one of the support categories though. a Torana :(

and a win for the blue brigade... maybe it'll quiet them a little... or just bring out the 888 haters LOL

been way too long between events (as is their way)... and I have no idea how long til the next one... ***another 4 weeks
