    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....

    Well done to Triple 8. But it was good to see BJR & GRM taking it to the international teams of T8 & HRT. Dave Besnard is a great talent. But there are plenty out there that still have it - Craig Baird, Steve Owen, etc, etc.

    Not the best way for Glenn Seton to finish his Bathurst career.

    It was fairly boring. I guess the telecast being behind live meant we didn't miss anything, but there wasn't much to miss. I was using a PVR, so I had the advantage of skipping the ads, and also recording F1 qualy and race. Go Webber for the championship.

    Man I feel for Will Davidson going so well all day and then wacking the wall up in McPhilarmy near the end. Also Fabian Couthard in that EPIC rollover into the Chase at 290 clicks. I have never see a car disintergrate like that ever since I have be born watching Bathurst and he just walks out from it. Goes to show how tuff these V8 Supercars are.

    Yeah I feel for Davison as well. He drove so well too up to that point. Anyway I'm so happy for Skaifey as he got shafted last year by the last safety car so it's only fair his luck turned around this year!

    Glad Skaifey got another win under his belt. Both the 500 at the Island and the Bathurst crown, not a bad effort! Was shattered for Will Davo, was a big hit too. Also Coulthard's big one on the first lap was unbelievable and so unlucky, getting tapped in the rear off the start and bending the valve on the tyre... just unlucky. And the 2nd Bundy Racing car getting hit by Coulthard's door which peeled off just summed up that team's day. I'm not sure how it could be classified as a boring race, when you have the top 3 cars finishing just over 1 second apart after 1000km... There were plenty of extremely exciting battles during the day as fuel loads, tyre conditions etc changed.
    Oh and I hope HRT bring out the original livery for every Bathurst! They looked amazing.
