Superb after all! Mustang is an icon.

Meanwhile Monaro? Consigned to history books thanks to GM product rationalisation.

Is that happening? Doubt Ford will want too many people to see if before homologation testing is complete. Especially seeing QR was so top secret yesterday and people being turned away by security.

You could head to Phillip Island, wear some karki's , say you are checking the Penguins.

"Following the shakedown, the car will be transported to Phillip Island for a test on Saturday, which will also be closed to the public and media. "

Maybe it's just the white paint on the other 3, but the front splitter look a lot smaller on Caruso's car.

Does a mid pack finish look as exciting as a practice session pole?

Team 18 doing well, seems since Jason Bright joined the Team at Sandown there has been an improvement trending on the car set up side.

Hmm, short fill Fabian and try to put the cat amongst the pigeons?

FCO has a big lot of clear air now, but his pace seems to be slower than Van Giz, will this be won on tyre wear?

Seems Scotty Mac hasn't got the pace to stay with Whincup.

Fabs pulled a nice gap on J-Dub with that early stop but will it compromise him, if they stop under safety car he's cooked.

Whoa, give and take there, I wonder if there might be a judicial reaction?

EDIT: Fabian's left hand down mid corner might not be looked on kindly.

EDIT2: Coulthard flat out ran Whincup into the wall.

EDIT3: Karma got Coulthard.

Did they just drop 97 with the fuel hose in?

EDIT: Yet again nowhere near enough caution under yellow flags, and what are the teams doing not warning the drivers?

BJR had 2 cars that hit FCO.

And Lowndes, jeez he had already stopped.

EDIT2: what a horrible, inconsistent restart.
