Bathurst, bring it on!

[Usarka]

What's the beer limit this year?

I remember last (few?) years when they introduced it people were sneaking in the week before and burying cases of beer! The 2 box limit wasn't enough

[LBD]

Any one else remember Robbie Francivic's (Spelling) Red Brick....2.3 turbo Volvo...especially at Wellington?

Duct tap every where and fire extingushers to the radiator when in the pit...That was a hoot to watch

Looking forward to another,sadly there wont be to many more in the current format.Whilst the change is inevitable for me anyway the "great race" just wont be such a great race once things change,enjoyed the GTR/Sierra thing but wasn't sad to see them go.The 8s are Dinosaurs but what Dinosaurs they areNo doubt this weekend will be Vodafone V the rest but a little luck here and there of both kinds changes everything.As i have done for as long as i can remember Ive taken the weekend off and all is set for a great time.Any others into it?

Somebody brought me back from last years race all the posters and crap they could snaffle. Not sure what exactly, it's in a cardboard tube, some of it may be signed but not sure, haven't looked at it. Found it last night and was going to toss it, but I suppose it'll be collectable one day? You want?

I think it was the race at Bathurst the Jags won that he was leading until the Swedish Taxi struck problems

We are showing our age....I pretty much lost interest when the V8's took over from group A

I must be showing MY age too ... I remember the PRODUCTION commer door Group A being built for the masses ... (all 500 of them signed by Peter perfect)

Once that happened I pretty much stopped watching for a decade

What pisses me off is that TV3 aren't playing it in HD. Nothing better than cranking up the stereo....

Yes I'm poor and can't afford sky.

Couch will be experiencing full use this weekend. Will have a massive ass print in the seat. Not to mention the Friday beer run to stock up.

At least they didn't have to stop the race 43 laps early like when the shitbox Fords caused a 6 car pile up that blocked the track

Fords allowed to its there track.

[White trash]

Fords allowed to its there track.

Actually, when they've won 10 more without Holden winning a single time, MAYBE Ford can claim the mountain.

Yeah sweet as, any home you deem good is fine by me.

You can come over to my place and watch it on Foxtel.

I'll be out riding.

To late mate we already claimed it back in 71 with the GTHO ,not so much the win but the HO went a large way to changing things from stock formula to what we have today.End of the day these days who wins matters little to me its more about the day though a Ford win puts a smile on my face,that and an early Murphy exit would make the day completeFor my money its Vodafone V the rest but thats the thing with Bathurst eh,anything can happen.
