Dessert [VASC17R11R12] CrownBet Darwin SuperSprint: 16-18 Jun

A 27 car field arrives in Darwin in 4 weeks for this event

Mr Le Brocq joins the regular field in his wildcarded GoGetta Nissan Altima.

Given Mr Davies' demonstration of speed in his older spec car at Winton, it will be a brave person that doesn't expect the colourful Nissan not to be the 2nd or 3rd best Altima this weekend.

We have a strong challenge at the front of the field... 888 and DJRTP going blow for blow.. with one of the prodrive cars, and maybe the lead GRM unit clogging up the front of the field.

Expect there will be more of the same players at the front...

Any bets on where WP will end up?

No doubting JLB will be one of the quicker Nissans out there. MWM have been going in their own direction with setup on both cars at the last few outings.

Status quo for the rest, I would think. The usual bunch up the pointy end. With a BJR car in the mix.

WR tend to run strongly here, so I'd expect either car to have some sort of meaningful pace. Whether they can stay out of strife or not, is another thing.

Dry season has arrived, so no rain to spice up the action.
Will James Courtney crack the top 15 in one of the races?
Just remember Darwin visitors, drive in the centre lane of Baggot Road!

My top 5 prediction (not order specific).
2*RBHRT
2*DJRTP
1*PRA - not sure which one, possibly 6, 55 or 5 in that order of probability.

Predictions:

Another Triple Eight vs DJR Team Penske battle. BJR have been rather well here on the odd occasion so bit of a dark horse there. Wonder if HSV will have another "character building" weekend?

GRM are usually so-so here, but I wonder if their VFs will be competitive?

I thought that was a fairly good race. Percat is the man of the race IMO, he was right on pace with the leaders.
