00 XR8 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I'm surprised that the Mini Challenge cars are allowed in. I know it isn't a production car race, but aren't they a bit too modified?

For what it's worth, Eastern Creek is a track that both Production Cars & Mini Challenge Cars have raced on....

2007 APCC - Qualifying
Tim Robson - Mini Cooper S - 1:55.7797
(pole was a 1:48 set by Holt).

2008 Mini - Qualifying
Neil McFadyen - Mini Cooper S - 1:44.6655

Not a perfect comparison, but that's a big difference....


Also, Utes were eligible last year weren't they?

How many Automatics do we think will turn up? And SUVs? Hmmm......
