V8 - Bathurst

[Quasievil]

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

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

[Quasievil]

You know what I think? (Yeah, I know you don't care).
I think about f'kn Aussie car racing.
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.

HELL YES, I stopped watching the Bathurst races after they changed it, I loved watching Godzilla clean up the Aussie cars, fucken brilliant stuff.
its like you say nothing but a big BORE now, iF you like TAXI RACING Bathurst is for you.

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!!!!

I was there when Skaife burnt his out on the line 2 years ago, then got sodomised by Perkins Jr.

Then Tander did it again this year!

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

[Swoop]

All running the "control" parts...
Brake pads next year.
Dodgy rubber this year... I wonder if the Dunlop claims department is busy this morning?

Well what about a NZ made car....what you mean theres no such thing????
BTW...Holden stands for Holes Oil Leaks Dents Engine Noises....
GO FORD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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.

I don't like you, you have a cage.

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 )

The Fun Police had a new law at Bathurst this year-only 1 case per person per day!! Fuck em!! NO drunken fun for this Redneck haha....good TV coverage on CH 7 here

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.

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.

Homos Oldfarts,Lesbians,Dipsticks,Enjoying,Nothing.And lest we forget that the Holden and Fords of late 80's were running 9" diffs.

Is that anything like a 9" dick?

[Maha]

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.
