It's so nice of Mixer to be so concerned about the Ford camp.

How many springs did they try on SVG's car during quali? Wonder if Dutto's been down to Matt Stone for a chat.

Is this race time certain? It's been delayed for 20 minutes now.

Watching cement dry!!!!

Kerfuffle in the pits involving #55 and #15.

Driver TBA · 3 Mar 2019, 06:06 (Ref:3887928)

Yes. It's a Tickford unsafe release, but Rick Kelly needs a belt across the knuckles for that. Totally unnecessary.

Time to ban double stacking imo.

Yep, Rick should have had a drive through penalty but I guess wasn’t needed .
I would also suggest Courtney should cop one as well!
That was bloody dangerous pushing Hazelwood thru the pit crews

All drivers who short cut through the 888 pit boom need to pitch in and buy the 888 pit crew tattslotto tickets. I honestly thought one of those guys would get hit.

Mr Hazelwood stopped, and got hit several times by a WAU car to get on with it..

So on top of Roland’s whinge... I notice Mr Boost has chucked all the toys out of the pram as well.
Wasn’t the shoe on the opposite foot this time last year?

Mr Boost’s cars never threatened the scorer too much across the weekend, especially when they weren’t getting anywhere near the best of the Holden runners.

I suspect 888 will be different at the Grand Prix...

The Stangs are so quick through turn 8, reckon they've got excellent high-speed aero balance.

Driver TBA · 3 Mar 2019, 09:38 (Ref:3887955)

I think Roland might be needling his opposition. When Crompo went on to interview Shippy and Couchi. They were more concerned about their own performance.

Out qualified and out raced by 2 brand new single car customers.

888 have dramas and it ain't Mustang dramas.

I missed this one. What did he say? Surely the slowest 2 car team isn't blaming external forces.

I would have thought Mr Boost would rather have Mustangs?
Surely it's more 'youth' than an fleet / rental car.

Very classy from Chaz.

Zero from Rick. Claims he could do nothing about bulldozing him and no apologies for the pitlane brake testing a lap later.

Hopefully this is a sign of big things to come.

Link?
EDIT: Found it on Insta @padderton. GTR, can you screenshot it? Worthy of discussion, especially comments underneath. That's if you can get past his extremely poor grammar.

Mr Adderton wants parity, when he really should be questioning where the money he's dumped into GRM is going...

His replies seem ill conceived and lacking logic.
You'd think the boss of a telecommunications company could afford a phone with spell check.

I think he was expecting a silver bullet with GRM. Yes they can get a car up the front end and be a dark horse, but usually they've got some talent behind the wheel to do so.

JG hasn't exactly set the world on fire and his days are numbered to be honest if he doesn't pull one out. Whilst RS needs to find his groove in the car, as Richard isn't going to give him a pile of $hit to drive.

Building up a substantial spare parts cache for the two young guns?

It sounds like the single spring rule was more of an issue for Triple 8, and presumably by extension most of the Holden teams. No doubt Ford have put a lot of effort in getting the best aero package while meeting the test criteria, but I think that would have much less effect especially at Adelaide.
