[VASC16R1R2R3] Clipsal 500 Adelaide

The first event of the season, new drivers, new warpaints and so on and so forth. Can Prodrive Racing continue their good form from last year or will there be another victor to draw first blood?

Fire them up and BRING IT ON!

Personal favourites are:

Walkinshaw
Triple Eight (Team Vortex)

Dark horses:

Prodrive Racing Australia
Triple Eight (Red Bull Racing Australia)
Erebus Holden

Always a great way to start the season off and hopefully we'll get to see most of the big guns out in front battling it out. You would think that Chaz and SVG will have the most pressure on them.

I can't go past SVG, he's always one of the best around street circuits and he's now in the pick of the bunch when it comes to machinery. Will be tasty though.

TSR has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
I can really see both the Red Bull being right up the front.
Prodrive never really do well at Clipsal.
DJRP could be podium sniffers along with JC.

But I'm leaning towards the Giz

It was quite exciting watching him during that mid part of last season, missed it during the end of the year

Hopefully he is on the pace from Clipsal

V8Supercars need a Volvo or Nissan win. I'll say Scott McLaughlin from Caruso.

Interesting that the V8SC site still only lists 24 drivers for Clipsal.

No mention of Heimgartner nor Waters.

All the major V8 races in HD, all the NRL in HD, great stuff for FTA viewers, I'll cop a few ads for that, great value.
