Exciting weekeend for me,....Clipsal, !st round of 2017 Season.
Lots of new stuff, drivers in different teams, different cars etc, but perhaps more importantly, a new tyre.
Shell V Power (Penske) now have Scotty Mclaughlin, Gary Rogers is back to Holden with Tander, Walkinshaw Racing have lost Holden sponsorship, so are no longer HRT, they now have major sponsorship from Mobll & HSV, new driver being Scotty Pye, ex Penske.
And then we have the all conquering 888 Redbull, who lost their gun engineer "Ludo" to Penske. The "competition" between their two drivers Jamie Whincup and the super fast Shane VanGizbergen will be "pretty to watch"!
1st session ,..Whincup on top,....2nd Practise session coming up.....I'm excited!

GRRRR!..Went to the Airshow yesterday, so put the Foxtel recorder on so that I could see TT shootout & the race,....got home, after a sensational day at the airshow, & guess what, the recording didn't work!!
Never mind, there's still today's racing.

I was supposed to get in contact with Gav, but that didn't happen, lost contact # etc, and no time to search it.

F-35 fizzer, Still on tarmac at 1000hrs this morning...problems already, couldn't / can't return to Amberly.

But what great show!
