Dessert [iV8SC12R16&17] Coates Hire Ipswich 300, 3-5 Aug

Its time...

.. for the main game to return to the paperclip. Freshly resurfaced, with reportedly all of the bumps now a distant memory.. it will be a 'new' track surface for everyone.

Including our new mate Happy Jacques... who seems to have done a deal to drive one of the Kelly Krates at Ipswich & Eastern Creek... Story Here

So... anyone prepared to bet against an FPR v's 888 lockout?

Will Happy Jacques be eligible for some championship points this round or will it be another case of negative one point regardless of the results??

I'm not an Aussie, but I will try to catch this event live. Is anyone up for capturing a video and sending for me to watch?

It'll be good race, that's for sure! I'm so glad the bumps are sorted out. I think some street circuits need those, as well, though...

On the Jacques subject, I'll be glad when Murphy's back. It's a terrible shame to see that car so deep in the field every time.

Apart from the DNF I reckon it was only 4 or 5 spots further down that it would have been anyway!

THE days of V8 Supercar drivers gaining major margin on a rival tucked up behind their rear wing at pit entry away from the prying eyes of a radar gun appear to be ending.

In addition to the regular 40 km/h pit lane entry line at Queensland Raceway, officials have confirmed that they will install a second line five metres beyond it at the Coates Hire Ipswich 300 this weekend.

peckstar has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
just pointing out that the clock on the v8 website suggest it is just under 11 hours to the v8s start, should pull a good crowd for the first midnight practice session

Mr Ingall has to be on a high at the minute.. good for his confidence (does it need help? ) and for Super Cheap's commitment to the sport....

Can they stay at that pace all weekend? Not long till we find out...

Where is Happy Jacques? Getting closer... can he drop in some midfield pace?

Can Mr Ingall hold on, or are his compatriots keeping their powder dry?

Well done to Mr D'Alberto for quickest too...

Strangely quiet from the frod appoligsts..... Sure frosty ate into Whincup's lead by a whole 7 points, but WD lost bigtime.

Pure gold to see two djr cars come together too.

And why oh why do HRT keep paying Crashney? Sack him & pay him out.

Some fairly interesting stuff going on in there... lots of love taps, crashes and bashes... I thought we were in for a repeat of the Gold Coast magic from Happy Jacques when he and Mr Douglas got together... you could just see it there.. begging... would have gotten Pepsi Max Kick on the teev even more...

Today brings another day...

Can Mr Ingall win it for pensioners everywhere?

This may be a shocking prediction, especially considering that the "Greatest Show on Wheels" with the "Ford" vs "Holden" battle that everybody still takes so seriously is so exciting and unpredictable, but I have a slight feeling an 888 or FPR driver will win...


Not sure why, but I just have a feeling.
