Numerous practice sessions, qualifying, strategies, shoot out, problems etc etc, it'll all be happening!
But it's not only the racing, there's a nice bit of tucker involved too, my "Bathurst Big Breakfast", which will be served up to me around 7.00am Sunday morning,...a couple of fried eggs, sausages, fried potatoes, a few rashers of bacon, mushrooms, tomatoes & a couple of pieces of fried bread,....aahh...I can smell it already!
Of course, I know from previous comments that not many of you guys will be watching, but I've been watching it since the 327 Monaro days,.... remember when Ch 7 "televised" it, & they used to "cross" to Casey & Jack's "World Of Sport" supposedly for ONE hour, I remember one year when it was almost THREE,....a few phone calls were made to Ch 7 that day!!....don't have to worry about that now, so all is good!
My "tip",...Whincup/Dumbrell, although at Bathurst the best of plans can go wrong for a multitude of reasons,....I'll be interested to see how Richie Stanaway goes, I can see a big future for him.
I know there are a HUGE number of enthusiasts on the Forum,....Lol!!,....but I shall nevertheless enjoy conversing with you all.
Looking forward to "The Great Race", Pickles.
NB:The Brock Commodore Owners Association of Australia, of which I am a founding member, is having their "Brocktober" function at Bathurst during the race weekend, so there will be many nice Brock Commodores to be seen.
