    You better come over to Vic and show the council grader drivers how to drive and grade . They are shockers . We end up with more ruts in the gravel roads after they have done their work .

    A fair while ago, I'm guessing around the mid 90's Ford were dominating the sprint races so the governing body decided to slow the Fords by trimming the front spoiler.

    This was done between the end of the sprint races and Sandown/ Bathurst.
    As sprint racing and endurance are totally different this screwed the Fords in the enduros.

    Rules should not be changed mid season.

    It was 8"s taken out of the front spoiler. It was taken out because ford had one 4 races(approx) in a row and considered to be unfair. The yr before hrt had one majority of races and ford had won none yet that was considered fair.

    Rules should not be changed mid seaon a race for the yr(6 rounds in not between the sprints and enduros).

    yeh they had to make a small adjustment to there rear spoiler when ford had not won a race for the yr(6 rounds in not between the sprints and enduros). so by the enduro's they had enough time to do the testing they needed to get a decent package unlike in the ford example. ( 8"s for god sake)

    Jesus, and I thought Landy owners were only one eyed about Land Rovers! The stupity in this thread is halerus. I think most need to review the real changes in the the vehicles, the reasons for the changes and whats actually been happening with regards to parity since Group A for all teams.
    Cheers
