Thread: BATHURST 2015

april fools????

I think they're having a laugh

Got to be a joke :-)

It would cost millions to reconfigure to track to run in reverse direction, all of the safety barriers would have to be adjusted for a start. You would need a "chase" at the bottom of mountain straight also.

Not quite the article i read in the local rag didn't give me all the details. The actual race will be over the Easter period and be a super sprint round not the great race as i read. sorry guys

Well now that the V8's will mostly be on foxtel, and I will have missed half of the action, who gives a toss! They could all go flying off the top of Skyline for all I care. They can all get stuffed now!

Rant over. (for now)

Albeit not a big fan, I have to agree they are leaving their most loyal fan base(Ford/Holden bogans

Not everyone can afford or want Foxtel.

Bring the Superbikes back to Free TV

Baz..

Not to sure of what to make of that one i am all for safety for the drivers but some things in life you don't mess with. On the one hand it would make for some very different car set ups as it is a completely different ball game going up conrod and especially going up over skyline. Not to sure if the cars will reach the same top speed they used to but at least it's a completely level playing field for all the teams as previous setup's will count for nothing. What do you guys think?
