Bloody hell, almost practice crash the second time around.

I'm learning all the technical terms now, "jackshit camber" is my favourite so far.

I find the commercials almost as entertaining as the race.

Hahaha Boost commercial was great.

i want a holden up my driveway because of this race.....

Variable weather certainly makes it hard to predict who will come out on top wet an slicks is always a recipe for action

@ATC Quicksilver Oh us Aussies now all about shit

If you don't know Jackshit this may help http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fTWQqj5UWY

The amount of ad breaks and safety cars is a bit annoying :/ been at least three times they have gone to an add break under full green then return to full course yellow and then go to another add break almost immediately... sun is coming back out again so should be more interesting pit strategy again

Lap 137 getting really interesting now

Safety car lap 141, I've got no nails left lol

154 Murphs praying for a safety car

Safety car at 157 gonna be chaos 1-2 lap sprint to finish :X Murphs in 6th with very good pace.

Murphs up to fourth 160 just missing podium finish by a hundredth

Very good finish, I hate safety cars but at the same time does bring a lot of action racing

That second last safety car with 30 laps to go was unlucky for Ritter/Besnard & Skaifey/Murphy. If that didn't happen Skaife & Murphy could of won the race, i guess it's the one that slipped away. Damn i wanted them to win so much! I hope they pair up next year, they seem to work very well together.

But yeh Murphy did get up to fourth and what a charger he was. The Kelly's were looking at a podium with about 20 laps but the rear wing didn't help due to it standing on a slant or something causing it to understeer over the top.

I am very happy Team Vodafone didn't win four in a row lol
Also:

Pole: Holden
Win: Holden
Podium: Holden, Holden, Holden.
Top ten 9 Holdens 1 Ford(hog)

For our Overseas friends who watch V8's and missed the coverage, couple highlights for ya:

Lap 7 with Lowndes getting a drive thru for a un-safe release in the pits.

Thought that was going to end on safety. Great last laps. 888 was pushing hard and so was Murph.

^ "jack shit camber" loved that lol

That was some race! Excellent stuff!

My first full V8 race I have watched, and boy am I glad I did. Great racing through all 161 laps.

worst person and car won, and shame 888 have chosen to race that heap of rubbish next year.

That was well worth staying up all night to watch. I wish I could get MotorsTV in my area so I could watch all the V8 supercar races in comfort.

Surely it comes with most Sky packages?

it comes with all Sky packages because its listed in the free channels for Sky so you get it even if you have the minimum package

Quote from JackDaMaster :

But what Sky don't tell you is that most people can't actually get Sky. We had 2 people come out and try to find a way of getting a signal, the only way would have been to put up a 60ft pole in our front garden and attach the dish to that.

Well suck it up princess, FORD shouldn't of told 888 their cars had to be predominantly blue...Now their factory ford teams (SBR & FPR) are a joke, big mistake from FORD. Roland Dane went with the money in the end, good on him. Ford want blue cars winning? Pfftt...

so if you wanna be a Ford factory team ur car has to be blue? that pathetic, no wonder there's more Holden's in the field than Fords. 888 and GM is a faultless combination as they've shown over here in UK. Lets see if they can repeat that in Australia

Yep pathetic isn't it? I don't know how a fan can get confused between a Holden and Ford...

A bit naughty on 888's behalf to rebadge their cars with hog's :P but in the end
FORD dumped 888 just because their cars weren't blue....
