Waters & Dixon - just think what would happen if they took out guy's like Whincup and Winterbottom who are fighting it out for the series.

I'll surprised if they are still racing after lap 25.

They're just asking for it to happen.

He can but i am not sure he can this year because Andrew Jones is not the best co-driver going around.

Cheers Jones did do some low 2.09 laps

Got to say how shit it looks when they show old footage of someone like Brock [Malboro] or Longhurst [Benson & Hedges] and the sponsors are blurred out.Is this a Government ruling that 7 are following where they have to blur old ciggie sponsors from over 20 years ago ?

Oh no some 10 year old kid might get a brief glimpse of Brocks Malboro sponsored car from 20-30 years ago and race out the door to go to the shop and get some ****.

 

[NSWCROW]

David Reynolds my Dark Horse to win.

And yeah - MASSIVE at the blurred Malboro

 

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

David Reynolds my Dark Horse to win.

I said that on the punting board so worth a look in the betting world.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

Does anybody think the blurring of the cigarette companies, actually draws more attention to it?

Can't wait for Ch 7 to show old episodes of Hey Dad with the fathers face blurred out if he looses his court case. Just proves how much of a joke Ch 7 is now a days.

Anyway, this race is going to be full on. Never fails when you hype up race car drivers, they deal with more adreniline than anyone.

We just need rain and all the ingredients of a classic are there..

Slade loved his 30 seconds in the limelight, please gods let it rain halfway thru qualifying, just after Will D runs a low 2.08 (have backed him at $9 to be fastest qualifier

 

[Simple Jack]

Just tuned in after qualy and heard someone saying '540 knots true air speed...flaps, gear etc' and I had a moment of severe shock thinking 'who the hell is this channel 7 presenter not sounding like a moron ' Until Skaife cleared it up for us.

Reckon the pole position time will be a 2:08.56... set by Lowndesy. Don't think anyone will threaten a 2:07 in these conditions.
