Amaroo Park should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Dont forget that BJR were Holden supported in the old Auscar days when Brad dominated the class

Well, I'm absolutely flattered you would hold me in such high esteem as DJ himself, or Junior or Glenn.

The fact is, though, I'm merely a motor-racing fan; and somebody who believes in justice and rights. i.e. A fair go; and credit where credit is due.

If you had read what I had said, I was all for BJR's success. Said good on them; and meant it.

My logic is sound; and 1x or 2x of the facts being mentioned is irrelevant.

If DJR pooled resources from here, there, and everywhere; then so what? No different than any other team. Like Holden teams procuring Ford 9" diffs for their Crummydores. Heck, even 888 procured human resources from DJR!

My opinion is as valid as the next man's; and if it weren't for my thoughts, this forum would be very lop-sided, to say the least.

You are quick to start a thread about BJR's 'the sky's the limit' quote; but are at the same time reluctant to post a thread about DJR's historic 7th championship win.

What gives?

BJR have certainly kept BOC tied into their operation for many years.

Somebody must be happy!


Good to see some variety in the winning teams, and a thought on BJR taking WP for spares - I reckon they're taking on WP's ability to build spares quick enough for them......

On the broadcast yesterday, Mr B.Jones suggested that Mr Bright said the team could win 6 races in 2011... Two down, 4 to go??

Still plenty of good chances for more race wins to come. I'm liking the prospects of tassie and the gold coast, and BJR always go well at the mountain.

i thought he said Bright had mentioned 2, but BJ wanted Bathurst, so they needed at least 3 (Barbagallo, Winton, Bathurst) for the year now?
