Maybe I am the only one bitter and twisted about this but....
The millions the V8 crowd insisted be spent on new pit facilities at Wanneroo looks a little like wasted money given they are the only ones to use it and there will not be any pitstops this year. |

Basically, yes. Club races use the old pit lane on the outside of the circuit as the access to the new pits is non existant for cars etc once the track is in use.

There will be pit stops this year, just not compulsory ones!

a) If performance is better, you then have to establish where exactly the improvement came from. b) If one upgrade is a success, and the other is a step back (it happens), thereby offsetting the gain, what worked and what didn't? Heady stuff! |

If it was anyone other than V8Supercars, then what a major waste of money. |

It was stage 1 of upgrades of the whole circuit/pits I believe, I'm glad that v8SC got the govco to spend money on upgrading the circuit. Hopefully it also safeguards the circuit from the push of suburbia for a while longer now with govco money being spent on it. |

I just wish (Like most people I guess) that a new pit facility could have been built on an extended circuit. It may still happen. (Fingers crossed) But untimately it wasnt really the clubs choice what to build. |

The cars are identical and both have aid from FPR with setups. It's all driver, but why is anyone surprised anyway, Blanchard has never impressed in his V8 Career.
