V8SC ROUND 2: EASTERN CREEK 300 km(LONG CIRCUIT)

[stmookeyj]

Entry list as per Clipsal with TBA's for car's 14, 24 and 43. First of 2 rounds at the Creek this year, but this is held on the long course rather than the short course used for the Main Event at the end of the season.

 

[JUBJUB]

Apparently the V8's haven't used the short course since about 1996.

 

[ComicStoreGuy]

Yep last time the short course was used by V8's was in 96 and it was in the dark.

Should be another walk in the park for 'da man' Ambrose,he dominated at Eastern Creek last year and should have no trouble again,great car with great speed

Want a few of the other Ford teams to show a bit next w/e FPR and DJR have got to get it right they have looked disapointing for far too long.
