Brands mean nothing in such a generic formula. Drivers mean a lot more.

Craig cements himself as the greatest driver of the modern (lame 2 make series) era.

And..sob...yes it was a Holden win...shhh

Damn your selective quoting Warren

I was just about to ask Clive why he needs 3 Holdens. 1 to pick up the kids from school and the other 2 as backup??

Go Holden

Just rebadged NASCARS, not a Holden or Ford amongst them and boring to watch to boot. Bring back the group C's and a bogon on the hill with a big rock, that would make it a lot more interesting

Spoke to a very good mechanic who considers Ford these days are in fact better than Holden.

It is this time of year when a timeless old saying is most pertinent.
"Winners are grinners .. and the rest can please themselves."

What a finish !!!

Lowndes is surely headed for Brock status isnt he ... Probably a given considering his temprement, ability and Brock was his mentor.

TrevorW · #13 10-10-2011, 01:16 PM

As so rightly pointed out by Marki these are no more than Nascars and internally show little resemblance to the Holden's driven by your average man on the street

besides I'm a Toyota man for reliability

TinyBlueDot (John) · #14 10-10-2011, 01:24 PM

Who said the v8's are boring...Closest finish ever , 0.29 sec, Gee, Lowndsey, if only you had just one more lap!!!

Happy to see Russell Ingall got a top 10 (8th) considering the poor year he's had so far, in perhaps his final year, it was a nice bit of sugar for him. To have done it with the SON of the co-driver he won his 2 Bathursts with was pretty special. Dunno if I'll find the v8's as interesting once the Enforcer hangs up the helmet......

. Wonder how the all ford and holden (

) pooper cars would fare against the latest cars from elsewhere. Whoops already tried that and they weren't even in the race. Its a class for bogans and really doesn't offer much to anyone else. Seems to be biased toward either ford or holden in different years as well. Keeps the bogs happy I suppose.

Can't let that through to the 'keeper without playing a shot.....

Okay, they're trying to even up the cars with all the regs (didn't Brocky win by 6 laps one year??), and it's always been a Ford vs Holden thing. Save the mid '80s (when the TWR Jags were on the prowl - and won in '85 on my 21st b/day....

) When they tried the Euro cars into the '90s most people went away. Volvos, Sierras, BMW's.....
To me, it's the drivers and their styles, who cares about Ford v Holden, does nothing for me
Russ. Ingall has run Holdens and Fords, as has Lowndsey. They could make shopping trolley racing interesting....
