Bathurst

[What?]

Bugger.
Skaife knocked out in the first 30 seconds.
Once again, the safety car was out more than it was in.
A ford won.
Just.
I missed the last hour coz the fuggin power went off. Again!!!!
And this morning I read on teletext that Mark Porter passed away.

Everything you have mentioned in your post is GOOD, GOOD, GOOD
Scaife out, Ford Wins ( and no just about it, a win is a win! )
Except for your power going off and it is very sad news about Mark Porter
All our wishes with his family and friends

On another note, i not a ford or holden supporter, i am more a of a driver supporter, lownes is one of drivers i support.

Glad Skaife did not, that man has a face like a horse.

At least NASCAR has funny names and funny/stupid commentary. Dick Trickle and all them thar 'Jnrs'.
Keeps me interested for as much as 45 seconds of a 3 hour race.

Quite an astounding day all in all.

Brocky memorial trophy awarded for the first time
Skaife taken out so early,
Huge accident/fatality before the race even started.

As a side note - did anyone see the program covering the development of the new holden (on Prime) yesterday afternoon. That was amasing too

[scumdog]

As an owner of several 'Blue Oval' products it warmed the cockles of my heart to see the finish at Bathhurst with several of said products at the front.

Holdens Achilles heel seemed to be handling, not driver error or driveline failure, I guess they're going to have to take a hard look at steering/shocks etc.

Oh, and a 'just' win is still a WIN eh?

[skelstar]

How close was it at the end?...I saw 6 secs with >10laps to go.

I know that its about the cars, I have been a big fan in the past, but would be damned exciting if it were bikes out there (despite track safety issues).

Yeah, good program. They have a Holden Channel now on Sky (Channel 500) with that same program.

Gutted to see the Brock trophy won by Ford (although it is Lowndes), and to see HRT out so soon - but a good race to watch as usual.

[Mr. Peanut]

Oh yeah, the towie was telling me about that...

[slimjim]
