Will Tony try and get some decent races happening as its own series? Or just play 2nd fiddle and do 10/12 lap races here and there?
I and many many others would love to see this take off and get air time with propper length races
So far this year there have been 1 hour races at each round (EC was 2 X 1 hour)
The Clipsal night race was a great event, on the friday night (at the pub) there was already some deals being made as Tony C from V8 land expressed interest after seeing the race under lights for the 2012 event.

Good time to start a Aussie GT thread.
with new cars due through out 2011 and at the start of 2012.
At this stage there is:
3 x Ferrari 458 GT3
1 Nissan GT-R GT3
Rumoured:
1 x McLaren Mp412C GT3
With the Audi, Merc SLS, Lambos, Porsches, Moslers and Astons 2012 is starting to build up

good on Vettes 10 years 7 class wins any team would love that win streak.
i also thought that the audi drive was grate to considering two of there drivers went to hospital, just shows the determination of the team.
but for me the stand out performance went to Robertson racing, for a independent husband and wife team to claim third place in the GTE Am class at there first la mans good on them
( in a ford gt too )good race and a well done to all.
Was kind of glad to see the 74 Vette out, as a mate was driving in the 73 Vette that won
The Robertson Racing result was great for the small outfit considering the lack of pace in qualifying.

f**k me... Can't see a goddamn thing in the dark. Take some serious balls to do that shit.
Good to see my mates avioded the carnage, got up and read 2 458's were involved in heavy crashes and was hoping it wasn't Al's car.
My other mate is sitting in 16th overall (3rd in class)

lol what a goose - he was fairly unequivocal in the post race interviews about who he felt was at fault in all those situations.

Heard this morning Mr Quinn has ordered a GT3 GT-R, then again was discussing the Quinn's last week with one of the Lambo teams crew chief who informed that the Quinn's have also ordered a McLaren MP4 12C GT3, guess only time will tell if either come through.
Both Allegedly will be competing in the Bathurst 12 Hour.

So you're doing some stuff at Walkerville .... I haven't been down there to check it out for a few weeks, but last I heard from John it is coming along very nicely. And would you mean this new R35 (with my wife and child in it)?
But have you seen the new Land Rover?
:D Porn, I reckon!hmmm there's an unsual sight [sKY350] on jacks
which land rover, the new Disco or the new soft 4wd?

Don't you have your own forum to discuss Fords
Its not their fault they have seen the light

I am REALLY looking forward to Kadina next weekend - it is going to be MASSIVE
:) :D Sorry I couldn't help out with Booze for the trip mate,
found another bottle of tequila, but that has 'evaporated' somewhat over the last few days
have a good one

I got to watch the SLS yesterday, from last on the grid up to pos 3 i think! awesome.
Yeah, great weekend to Launch the car,
did a 1.30 on the friday before they placed the restrictions on, which was looking good until the Lambo in Prod Sports set a 1.28 with Allan Simonsen behind the wheel.
Hopefully with the Bathurst 12 Hr regs changing next year to full FIA GT3 regulations that we are able to have less restrictions placed on the cars in the national series.

Pitty Craig Lowdnes crashed in Qualifying after getting the Audi up to 10th

Soft! Where are the spirits!?

I was going to take a pic of my spirits but that would be cheating as i get the mine delivered by the case for work
speaking of which will be getting a delivery tomorrow

PS Whiplash mines the wild "t.u.r.key", lucky and little creatures. Rest are the other lads
I'll let that slide (Until Rocking Angel Bourbon is on the market
)Not that I'm Biased!!
-
Looks awesome Nick! Did you do the graphics for it? (I am assuming you did).
Unfortunately not,
I did all the initial art work with different sponsors (Rocking Angel which is our Bourbon).
It only got the call up to allow it to run at the last minute so they got the vinyl cutter to put something on, especially after they did the whole chrome wrap on the car
( in a ford gt too )
:rofl2:

Sorry i meant Tony C, was interested in taking the later race for the Taxi's.
I know there was talk for 2x 1 hour evening races for the GT's at the clipsal next year (would be the premier national GT race) but that was after a few pints so imaginations could have been running.
