They have supported V8Supercar for some time, putting a trackside store at a couple of the rounds for the last few years.

Maybe Dick Smith is looking at a greater investment. Hope the deal is well welded, what with WW reportedly looking to find a new parent for that business.

The Retreat was in Wagga last week for a washed out race meeting at the Turf Club.

It actually looks a bit tired and in need of a re-furb....

P1 Bottom 50%

P2 Bottom 50%

P3 All in

P4 All in

Overall

Bit of a surprise that the Vodaites were quick on Friday, its not usually part of the strategy. Mr van Gisbergen did well to get 3rd, was on new tyres and way up on both of them until the last sector when Mr D'Alberto was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and baulked the lap. Woulda Coulda Shoulda. Didnt. Yet

Mr Reindler stuffed it in during early practice.. hurt the car pretty badly...



... new chassis rails.. plenty of panels.. not sure if the engine was undamaged..

At one stage, members of all 3 BJR squads were on hand helping the repairs...

Why is Whincup classified in 20th? Fiore did more laps than him. Fiore shouldn't get any points as he did not finish but Whincup shouldn't be bumped up a place. It should be:

18. Johnson
19. Reindler
DNF. Fiore
21. Whincup

has never worked that way silver speed,

you have to cross the line after the winner has finished, fiore didnt, and Jamie is considered 20th.

its consistant with the rules, its just rarely the championship leader that it happens too

R27

What a day!!

For all the complaints about the circuit design, it certainly provides a genuine show!

80 points between 1st and 2nd... GAME ON!!

Well done to LDM for another 15th place too. While its not a race win, its a solid result under Mr Small Sr...

Series Points

Presuming there are no post race penalties...

... the order looks something like...

PDriverAfter R27To LeaderTo Next
1 Jamie Whincup 3078
2 Craig Lowndes 2995 -83 -83
3 Mark Winterbottom 2560 -518 -435
4 Shane Van Gisbergen 2543 -535 -17
5 Garth Tander 2526 -552 -17
6 Will Davison 2345 -733 -181
7 Rick Kelly 2289 -789 -56
8 Lee Holdsworth 1920 -1158 -369
9 Alex Davison 1850 -1228 -70
10 Fabian Coulthard 1839 -1239 -11
11 Tim Slade 1826 -1252 -13
12 James Courtney 1773 -1305 -53
13 Greg Murphy 1678 -1400 -95
14 Steven Johnson 1645 -1433 -33
15 Michael Caruso 1627 -1451 -18
16 Jason Bright 1549 -1529 -78
17 Steve Owen 1501 -1577 -48
18 Todd Kelly 1493 -1585 -8
19 David Reynolds 1453 -1625 -40
20 Russell Ingall 1403 -1675 -50
21 Jonathon Webb 1373 -1705 -30
22 James Moffat 1306 -1772 -67
23 Jason Bargwanna 1298 -1780 -8
24 Paul Dumbrell 1242 -1836 -56
25 Karl Reindler 1093 -1985 -149
26 Tony D'Alberto 1045 -2033 -48
27 Dean Fiore 992 -2086 -53
28 Warren Luff 809 -2269 -183

There are still quite a few championship positions that can mathematically change place. For example, SBR could end up with 3 cars in the top 10... Mr Courtney may still make the top 10... the 3rd place slot is still open to Mr Winterbottom, Mr Van Gisbergen & Mr Tander..

Still a bit for them all to play for...
