TCR is here

[imadodgyumpire]

Anyone notice lebbo disliking my post on the USGP thread?

hehehehe

 

[imadodgyumpire]

Where is everybody???

 

[imadodgyumpire]

Greg Rust is a pain in the arse.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

When are people going to realise Chelsea Angelo is sh*t.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

It wasn't her fault, but she's crap anyway.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

Aaron Noonan should be commentating instead of chump Rust.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

Good win by Brown.

 

[NotAMagpieBogan]

Would’ve been good if they ran the shorter 3 point something kilometre layout for the second round here this year. Would suit the cars better as well.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

Yes, good point.

Sometimes it’s practical for a series to have repeat tracks in a season, but there’s something unsatisfying about it.

The smaller circuits do suit the cars better. I suppose it’s the point lebbo was indirectly making about the cars at Bathurst.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

How much di The Bend pay to win the award they won?

 

[imadodgyumpire]

Aaron Noonan listed all the classes James Moffat won in. It sounded impressive

But I still think of Moffat as a sh*t driver?

 

[hey shorty]

How much di The Bend pay to win the award they won?

Nothing.

If you got over here and had a look you'd realise what a brilliant facility it is.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

He would had to have paid something, kind of like how Melbourne has to pay to be the most liveable city. Shahin's are dodgy.

C'mon, you know it!

 

[imadodgyumpire]

On another note. To whom it may concern, can we let lebbo post itt again?

Just let him crouch down, spread his cheeks, and let him dump the biggest crap on tcr that he can.

I wanna see how far he goes.

 

[Kwality]

Yes, good point.

I was there in the series production days when Datsuns & Mazdas were sharing the mountain with H0s & XU1s & it was regularly reported the quickest car across the top of the mountain was a Datsun driven by Doug Whiteford, a very experienced punter.

2 litres across the top will be very entertaining as Andy Priaux said
.... having competed in four Bathurst 1000s .... getting the chance to return to Mount Panorama was exciting.

“Bathurst is one of the best race tracks in the world – it’s a kind of mix between Spa and Macau,” Priaulx said.

“It will be fantastic to drive there in a TCR car that will perform really well over the top.

Ex-Formula One world champions Jenson Button and Fernando Alonso might tackle Mount Panorama next year as part of a new event at Australia’s home of motorsport.

Sorry to admit I have never been able to define exactly where 'across the top' exactly is.

Be great if TCR could forge a close relationship (on track) with NZ:

Paddon, a multiple winner of the New Zealand Rally Championship and one-time WRC victor, will take part in the opening three rounds of the campaign driving a Hyundai i30 N TCR for his own Paddon Rallysport Group team.

TCR NZ will have a close relationship with the Aus series because they're run by the same management.

Idk what the palns are. But if I was running it, I'd have a two distinct series with no overlap. Give prospective competitors two shots a year at winning a series.

Thierry Neuville raced in the German tcr series in a one off. Took pole and won a heat? It wouldn't surprise if Paddon wins a few races and scores the most points in the times he's in.

Sorry to admit I have never been able to define exactly where 'across the top' exactly is.

One would presume over the mountain?

I thought the NZ series involved Mark Petch who bought Volvo downunder in the GR A days, fairly sure he's not involved in ARG.

He ran JB back then & JB is looking for a seat for 2020 in Aus.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

**** he's old.

I'd have to find a link to confirm my post.

Petch was racing in the early 70s, DJs vintage. JB 9 years younger than Dick

Here's the link of what I was talking about.

So now TCR has a national fta deal.

While also having 2 Bathurst races(1 being a possible world event) great racing and variety.

I think we will get more and more teams hopping on board.

30 cars is the rumour.
