[iV8SC12R01&02] Clipsal 500 Adelaide -1-4 March 2012

[GTRMagic]

Its not long now till Adelaide comes alive with the sound of the V8 Thunder!

We have seen the V8Test day, which may or may not change your view of who will be competitive this year...

Remember too...

2012 Driver's Championship poll Entries close 29/2

2012 Team Fantasy Championship Entries close 29/2

We should see ALL the cars in their 2012 liveries by then... or not.. depending how lady luck at the Casino tables, or at Tabaret or Tattslotto/Golden Casket goes generally...

Lets see what's on.. some actual racing.. where the flag drops and the posturing stops..

Adelaide Alive!!

An 888 car to win R1, HRT for R2?

We are in for some rain across this weekend.

Looking forward to hitting the track.

24-26 deg C with showers across the 4 days (apparently)


Not sure if it has been mentioned anywhere here but Whincup lost his father to cancer on Sunday. Condolences to him and his family.
Can he switch on so soon after and hit the ground running?
I'm sure he will use his lose to push himself.
(No disrespect)

I read elsewhere that there may be some fuel supply issues that may interupt the running of the weekend ?

Got a link?

Well it seems Jim Beam racing had has their merchandise supply truck is held up as well (I assume the e85 has to come from QLD as well).. Must be something to do with all that water around the traps..

Hi all, anyone got a pic of car 21 TKR!!!!!! Andre Heimgartner ?
would be appreciated.
Cheers

[F J Nedos]

A bit of trash talk leading up to the race from Mr Courtney...

http://smh.drive.com.au/motor-news/w...301-1u4hj.html

In particular:

Jamie Whincup (Team Vodafone Holden). 2011 - 1st. Some say the Whincup/Team Vodafone combination is unbeatable, but not me. I beat them two years ago so I should know. I respect Whincup and his consistency, but his team makes him look better than he is.

[St00ge]

Wasn't James doing the same last year....how did that go for him??...

Ok, We All Know Its Coming, P1 starts in 20 mins, so who will be the first main game driver to 'kiss' the concrete walls??? My Pick is Mr Douglas or The Permalatt or however its spelt.

[Chappelli]

Red flag early on in the session?

[ForumNick]

Looking at Live Timing a few minutes ago... Red Flag... Everyone back in the Pits...

Except....................... #8 Bright ???


Edit: Bright back-out & goes to P1 - So obviously not badly damaged?

Edit: Another Red! #33 Premat only car not in pits!

[Chappelli]

and another red flag,,, Steve Owen this time?

[ForumNick]

No - that was Owen going back out (showed how long he was in Pit)

[Chappelli]

Taz Douglas appears to have not had a timed lap yet... could be him.

[Chappelli]

1)Russell
2) Webb
3) D'Alberto
4) Bright
5) Johnson
