well, I got out of work 5 mins early (yeah I know, Im such a badass!!!!) and made it home with 6 laps to spare, and f**k me what a top 6 laps to watch!!!!!!

felt sorry for rick kelly, he held them off as long as he could, but i think the car just wouldnt go hard any more :(

but im happy, holden 1 2 & 3!

was anyone else contemplating suicide from the telecast....

god the team they have drives me insane i want to watch motorsport not larko, crompton, skaife have personal jokes. That idiot from sunrise talking about god knows what about the taxis, even throughout the support races..

Go race and strategy by brighty to make up the lap and get close to the top 10

Murph's argy-bargy passing move was more than a bit, er, marginal. V8 stockcars must be employing F1 race stewards...

Thought there were a few marginal passes.. Tander on Kelly was a bit rough

I reckon the category is the problem not the telecast. the racing is just rubbish and spreading it over 8 hours makes it worse.

But hey, its the biggest race of the year in aus....and I don't mind spending all day in front of the tv drinking beer :D all and the rookies each year guarantee some crashes.

You mean the shit that Clowndes has been getting away with for years. Good to see the shoe on the other foot for a change. :D

the advertising to content ratio was woeful as usual- "here's 90 seconds of pacecar, now for 5 minutes of the same fkn ads you're already sick of seeing"...

i thought the shot of the back of the front brake rotor was a pretty interesting camera angle though. nice to watch the sparks fly at the end of conrod

didn't watch enough of the broadcast to catch all of the no doubt numerous dodgy moments, but Murph def should have got a drive through for that effort, really

Days Of Thunder spec- "racin' is rubbin', son..." lol

it's one thing to have an advantage into the braking zone, it's another to come steaming in too shallow and too hot and just jam your nose into the other dudes rear quarter

not that i really care for the team affected (or any of 'em really), but it's the principle of the matter, y'see...

lol good race at the start and end, coverage was shithouse due to not being in high def here and the unending effing ads!!! Pace car came out too often as well, talk about making it BORING when its restart after restart! Felt bad for tricky ricky Kelly, was hoping the boys were gonna hold off til the end, apart from that bloody pace car making em all bunch up again!

Clowndes deserved a punch in the face from the other driver for that pit lane thing, couldn't believe he didnt get penalised for some of his other shenanigans either.

True, the officials wrecked the start of the race when they put the safety car out for the first corner incident. FFS, they had two minutes to get the spun car out of the way! Totally took away from the usual first few laps of argie bargie.

and yes, the damned ads, bloody repetative and way too long! Ridiculous.

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
