Scotty is something special on those 1 lap shootouts. 61 poles to his name in less than 7 seasons.

Not bad efforts from Chaz and Waters either, interesting to see what the red bull response will be on race day and if Fabs can make his way through the pack.

The likes of Mr Edwards keeps talking about a substantial mechanical grip improvement, however given that his 4 car fleet are using reskinned Falcons, the only true variation in the cars year on year is aero... whether that is downforce or balance or reduction of lift, a slipperier car... or all of the above. Lets see who can keep the tyres under them tomorrow. |

One liner of the week so far goes to SVG.

There seem to be some delusional optimists in our poll.. (including me!)
That said.. until you see them dance when it counts, it’s only form on paper after all |

As we warm up this morning for the race, there is a piece on Autosport's website from legendary driver coach Rob Wilson, talking about the quality and level of driving of Supercar drivers.
It's not surprising but a good read - behind a paywall so I've inserted into this post to share: Quote:

Why are rear tyres suddenly as issue, and in particular for the Mustang? Quote:
The whole thing has become nothing short of a complete joke. As RD once said (when it suited him), the opposition simply need to work harder, and the same opportunities exist for everyone. Quote:

Right, here goes. Enough beer, coffee filter on tap, already quarter past midnight up here, preparing for an all-nighter.
Expect to lose me somewhere around 4am our time, should be back for the end. Wish me luck :-) |

Pity the Japanese GP is on at the same time, I will choose the GP the commentary is more proper. Can’t believe the cars are only marginally faster at the mountain this year I was expecting mid 2s in QUAL.

Why do I think a Nissan might do well today?

All good, spread out on the sofa, not too far to fall if I nod off. So much more exciting now that I've actually seen the circuit. It seems so much more real.
