I assume they'll need a fuel stop during the 250km race. With just tyres during the 150km one.

ford boy · 11 Nov 2003, 03:10 (Ref:779439)

Quite sure fuel and tyres for the 250 km.
They use to for the final race at Canberra which was 250 km.

i just hope it will be a clean race.
the last thing we want is team mates holding the contenders up or punting them off

Wizzby · 14 Nov 2003, 08:08 (Ref:782904)

Or a pile up that takes out half the field and leaves one championship contender standing

jetsetter · 14 Nov 2003, 08:14 (Ref:782909)

It was reported in Motorsport News this week that AVESCO doesn't have any sort of countback rule if their championship is tied, so i hope to save confusion that Murphy & Ambrose aren't level on points after EC.

**GTRMagic** · 14 Nov 2003, 08:14 (Ref:782910)

Maybe the SBR boys will play punt the '3 fat ladies' at EC...

Conrod Kieron · 14 Nov 2003, 08:21 (Ref:782915)

Wasn't it Murf who turned Ingall around at the start of the last EC race? i'm not a believer in karma but you never know

jetsetter · 14 Nov 2003, 08:24 (Ref:782918)

That made a change from Ingall turning everyone else around.

Both of them have huge trouble magnets on their cars... will be interesting though

The Tool Man · 15 Nov 2003, 09:42 (Ref:784142)

Im Just praying for Murph to have such a mishap in the monaro in the 24hour that he is to unwell/unfit to race at the creek the next week. GO MARCOS and RUSSELL GO !!!!

jetsetter · 15 Nov 2003, 09:52 (Ref:784149)

The Ford fans must be getting desperate, needing Murph to have a mishap next week for Ambrose to get across the line.

The Tool Man · 15 Nov 2003, 10:08 (Ref:784152)

Just Nervous One thing is for sure, who ever wins will deserve it we finally have a season going down to the very last corner of the last race of the season.

**GTRMagic** · 15 Nov 2003, 21:36 (Ref:784555)

Nope, Murf will be buggered from the 24hr.... and if you believe some of the noise from there, may actually be replaced at HMS's request....

jetsetter · 15 Nov 2003, 21:40 (Ref:784558)

I actually think the 24 hour will be a good distraction from the pressure for Murph. It will give his mind something else to focus on for a few days.

Just to clarify things, my post was in jest hence the smiley. I want Ambrose the win the Championship fair and square with all 3 contenders putting in a decent effort.

GTR, why would HMS be requesting the replacement for Murf, he is employeed by KRT isn't he?

racer69 · 16 Nov 2003, 09:16 (Ref:784884)

Am i the only one abit miffed as why everyone is saying the championship is so close?

22 points different doesn't seem like much when we're talking about the leaders having scored 1800 or so points this year, but when the points-spread in each race at Eastern creek is only 3 points per position......

Ambrose just needs to trundle around near the front and he is home.

Murf also has a Holden contract as part of the "Team of Champions" for its contracted drivers.... Murf said on RPM today he would be at the 24hr, but things do change....

Mr Palmer suggested on the PROCAR site that Bargs was a possible runner in a Monaro....

racer69 · 16 Nov 2003, 10:09 (Ref:784909)

I was thinking about that. Bargwanna obviously wouldn't have a Ford contract, just a Larkham contract presumebly, or could that be a pointer to future employment? How would GRM feel about him running?

William Dale Jr · 17 Nov 2003, 07:25 (Ref:785495)

I thought Bargs did have a Ford contract?

The Tool Man · 17 Nov 2003, 10:15 (Ref:785633)

I originally Thought Bargs was named in a Lambo with Stokell and Tratt but that was some months back.

And no I think Bargs is a LMS contacted driver not a Ford Contracted driver but I do believe the FOMOCO will do waht it takes to keep the Holden Refugees like Bargs, Lowndes, Ingall in their Ford seats for many years to come.

And Garry Rogers would have Bargs in one of his Monaro's
