[iV8SC11-R07&08&09] Trading Post Perth Challenge 29 April-1 May
After two changeable races in Unzud... what does the form look like for Perth?
Presumably Mr Tander will get his eyes back on, pull out a setup from a few years ago and sledgehammer the field? Or have the new cowpokes in Mr Kelly & Mr van Gisbergen grown another foot taller, and their seasons will open up for them? And what of the House of 8's? Two pretty poor rounds in a row, the anger/hunger shall be focused on getting them back to their best too. You could imagine Uncle Roland squeezing the vice just that little bit tighter... And FPR. Sorry. Hard not to do that, some of the strongest cars when they are fettled on song, plenty of budget... poor strategy decisions... cars not quite right all the time... drivers who struggle in traffic... nope... Winner? #1 J.Courtney |

I am saying that Fpr will get back on track and finish with both in the top ten. With Frosty with the win.

Throw Gt in, Lee, gis, Rick , and look for the 8's coming back.
Small track, not much room for error, hope the sand doesn't blow over. Some carnage on the firts race, Best to be at the pointy end from the get go |

I wish Frosty would grow a pair and have a crack for a change....great guy and gentleman racer doesnt get you race wins! Willy D was there for a bit on the weekend but maybe ran out of tyres??? still was great to see different blokes up there, hopefully perth will see more of the same.

But will Skaife or Crompton, jump in the Vodafone/888 Royal Carriage and take it for a hot lap along Whitehall road?
No doubt Larko will give us a run down on the Vodafone/888 Royal Carriage from the Dick Smith Tech centre, and discuss horsepower, roll centre adjustments, pit strategy? The Channel 7 guys will have in horse camera's to capture all the action of the big day. |

As long as they don't show the Royal "podium" and the "spraying of champagne..."

Great, just what we need is another lifelong Holden fan in the commentary box. I suppose we should be thankful that they at least allow the sole 'Ford' person a gig way down in the pits.
Don't leave us Larko, but will you ever be allowed to join the ranks of the main Commodore, sorry main commentary team upstairs? I'm only joking of course. |

I live in Asia..... get all the racing live on StarSports.
Sometimes there are some benefits of living offshore! But it make you wonder about VE$A's loyalty to the local market!!! (Supporters) |

Actually, Roland was looking quite tanned when they showed him today - maybe they've set up a tanning booth in the truck?

To me it looks like the Kelly Racing cars really don't like Barbagallo (or the hard tyre?) since the whole team didn't do nearly as well as Hamilton. It'll be interesting to see how they perform tomorrow. |

How was the Skaife comment "best on ground" for Reindler? Perhaps with the AFL rights being 7's big spend he is hedging his bets on a new commentary position with the ping pong.
Drive of the day....Giz hands down. drove through the field and probably only needed 10 more laps to get Jamie. Well done willy d...nice podium and good chat with Beretts after the race, not ashamed to put the horror year with HRt behind him! Disappointed that Frosty didnt have a good crack at Rick, could have pressured him more I felt. |
