I think you said a mouthful Capt,,,

It wouldnt surprise me if they used a single file rolling start from now on,,
they need to.

Major part of the heart and soul of AULRO.comI stopped watching it many years ago. It is as boring as all get out now and has been for years.
It used to be good in the days of different classes and lots of different brands when really fast cars were lapping the likes of HB Vauxhall Vivas, etc.
I only ever went once, back in about 1967.

SubscriberPACE cars are part of modern motor racing mate, as a safety issue. The alternative is the red flag and nobody wants to see that. A rolling start would screw it up though, too yank !Originally Posted by Pedro_The_Swift
And it wasn't won and lost on Pace cars, if that were the case they would have had the Pace car out at the end but instead Craig had to use his racecraft and SUPERIOR SKILL right to the end !
Say, does that make Lowndes the only driver to have won Bathurst ina HOLDEN and a FORD ??

I dont have a problem with pace cars,,
I HAVE a problem with using flatbeds to retrieve broken cars,,
which is why they need pace cars,,
why do they need to take ANY car back to the pits?
to save the teams from coming back up the mountain after the race??
its crap,,
skull drag the things off the track, clean up the mess and let the cars race,,

Loved the finish!!! Last winner in both makes I think was Steve Richards.
Won with Bright for Stone Bros. and also with Murph in a Commode.
Glad Murph went out too......
