Frosty/FPR choke again, surely not.
As much as I want him to win, if History is anything to go by that'll be the case.

Awesome topic saturated in reasoning, logic and statistics to back up your insightful viewpoint.

Wasnt it Craig who put it in the wall while leading a race and is now in third in the championship hunt. Who's choking?

He is really just doing what he needs to do.

I suspect he'll fall over the line with a few points in hand, like Robbie Francevic in '86.

Probably the last choke we had was Dick Johnson in 1990.

Think he was actually choked in at least one of those wasn't he?

Define choking, in this instance though.

I thought Frosty choked last year. Completely bombed-out after HV, throwing away a nice lead in the points.

Similar thing happened the year before, too. Right up there in the points, then just fell away. Even a Bathurst win couldn't save him.

Seems that choking within the frosty camp isn't his only problem. Pictures last night showed Cam Waters was to blame for frostys' spin, aw well. So much for the Tim Edwards rant, is an apology forth coming?

It's hard to picture Tim Edwards as anything but an enabler of some of the poor attitudes in the PRA camp.

Unfortunately I agree, the fish rots from the head.

As the figurehead of an organisation I expect some tact and respect but Tim Edwards, despite all his worldwide experience, has none. To rag on the guy who is 2nd in the championship for you, to justify the fact that you've let him go, is just low. if Dave wins the series Tim Edwards deserves the karma.

The only other one thankfully who doesn't get on the box much these days is Kim Jones.

I believe Kim Jones hasn't figured much in the team's trackside activities since he pranged his road car a while back.

Incorrect. He's been trackside and still a valued memeber.
