Lap one you mean, bastard just moved over into him first time up Mountain Straight - put a ding in his door and bent the steering and by lap three Murph had little choice but to pull in and have it dealt to.
Interestingly enough no mention was made at the end so Murph let it go.

I see what you mean regarding the front pillar...
Took a VE for a test drive on Friday and it is particularly large. Quite restrictive of view.
Can I presume that all motorcycles "appear" from that blindspot (that the radar cannot penetrate...) so avoid a ticket because of it...:blip:

I'd be more inclined to say "huge". You could hide a bus behind that pillar. I'd say a few motorcycles will "appear" from that blind spot just before impacting the front fender.

As a Sv6 Driver I can tell you the Holden will whip any FORD xr6 any day, if only on handling, they didnt spend a billion dollars on this car for nothing, its the best looking best performing car ever to leave Australia.

There's always someone trying to justify spending their hard earned on something that came... 2nd.

Also interesting that Murph never commented about him putting Lowndes into the dirt just prior to getting that love tap from Craig on the way up Mountian Straight. Me thinks Murph thinks it better to keep his mouth shut for a change.

You know what I think? (Yeah, I know you don't care).<_<
I think :whocares:about f'kn Aussie car racing. :Pokey:
It was almost bearable before they went "Waaaaaaahhh!" and banned everything except Falcodores, now it's a total snoozefest.
Bring back the Nissans, BMWs, etc. Make it open to any V8 touring car.
Then it would be just boring, instead of unbelievably boring. :rolleyes:

Here we go. The BIG Holden Vs Ford debate.
They're both pieces of shit depreciating their way to South Auckland where they belong.

Nope, it came first in Hamilton. And another lap or two it would have come first at Bathurst.
I still remember the crys of despair from the FORD contigent at the Hamilton 400.
I actually dont care, give me a nice Audi any day over Holden or a Ford, but at street car level out of the two aussie brands Holden wins hands down on looks style and handling
Anyway, I dont own mine, its MOBIL owened, I just drive it and fill it up with free gas:woohoo:

I heard that the Holden teams (especially HRT) are going to start putting Automatic Transmissions into their race cars.
Their drivers just can't seem to handle using a clutch!!!! :lol:
I was there when Skaife burnt his out on the line 2 years ago, then got sodomised by Perkins Jr. :buggerd:
Then Tander did it again this year! :clap:

Of course there's nothing inbred about a production car racing series that has only two manufacturers involved in it...

Brake pads next year.
Dodgy rubber this year... I wonder if the Dunlop claims department is busy this morning?

Meh I worked for them for 3 year's ( used to absolutly love them ) ..however nothing special im afraid especially for the money. Ford and holden... hmm about as bad as eachother id still take the holden tho .. trust me I was the die hard holden fan at one point but for the price of new fords and holdens to something in the japanese range... no comparison in all aspects..
you can not call a factory frod or holden a race car.... or anything close.
However the V8 Supercars is a hell of a lot of fun GO HOLDEN ( theres the old redneck, v8 bogan )

Murph always blames someone else like Scaife does,never my fault,yeah right.
Really funny when Murph said after the shootout when Richo was close to equalling or beating his course record,Murph replied he would have to sack Richo if he beat it,said with a grin,but the eyes were saying that's my record,ego eh Murph,gotta have a big one.

It was big yawn....about as exciting as the Hamilton race.
I was out riding so didn't get to see all of it (thank god) watch most of it from about lap 80. Fell asleep in the lazyboy a few times. The first 10 and last 15 laps of Bathurst are the only ones worth watching, the rest of it is bullshit, unless you into that sort of thing, then its right up your alley.
PS: We own a Holden.

Indeed...after the treatment Murph and Richards got from the pissed wankers in the below them yesterday, its a wonder I dont have an inferior complex about owning one....but im not that shallow...hell, I even purchased a Honda.

I dont buy into that statement....(and this has nothing to with being biased) sure Ford have won three years running, to me, it comes down to the driver and the pit team (driver first) Go back a couple of years, put Marcus Ambrose in a Holden and he would still kicked everyones arse. All the red blooded Aussies would have pleased when he fucked off over seas.
Take Rossi.....won a couple of titles on a Honda now a Yamaha, bet he could do it on a Suzuki as well.....and god forbid, even a Kawasaki!!
