    Supercars,..Under lights,....on now!

    If ya've got Foxtel, ya could do worse than watch this.
    Big crowds at Sydney, race starts at 7.20pm,....lots of unknowns here,...looking good,....take a look.
    Highlights on Ch 10 FTA tomorrow,.....but won't have the same atmosphere.

    Anyone see it?.....Probably not!!
    But it was a great event, great driving by "The Giz", and a good result for Red Bull,..the Championship points are very close.
    Visually, I thought night racing was pretty special & added another aspect to the Series.

    under lights? big deal.
    makes ZERO difference to the driving.

    You want real night driving?
    Try doing a 25km off road night loop in the forests around Jimna( no soft cocks here, in winter with the creeks full!),, you dont know jack until the phrase-
    "All cows are black at night" gives you nightmares...

    yeah I watched it and all the afl, channel flicking.

    I thought it was quite good ...the last 20 laps....usually dont watch a full race.

    I thought the driver presentation before the race was a bit off...its starting to look like seppo land in its delivery.

    The cars STILL all look the same , we need some real model identification and the drivers names very visible on the cars, not the sponsors or at least as visible as the sponsors.

    No Foxtel for me, but from what I could pick up via the feeds it looked like an awesome event! Sounded like a bit of Cole Trickles rubbings racing. Wish I was there.
    Cheers

    As Roland Dane has said elsewhere,its a real shame CL didn't win more championships.

    He was runner up,or third that many times it was ridiculous.

    How many times did he double stack over the years behind Whincup,and therefore lost a bucket full of championship points?

    I am pretty sure at Bathurst one year, he would have won if it wasn't for double stacking as well.
