Bathurst 2008 Question
Watching the 2008 Bathurst 1000 highlights DVD.
In the top ten shootout, they make mention of Paul Dumbrell’s co driver David Reynolds being replaced by Rick Kelly for Sunday’s race. Anyone remember why Dave was replaced for the race? |

A stuck throttle caused The Rat to smash Rick's Holden to pieces (and break an ankle perhaps?) at the entry to Skyline in practice. That's why Rick was free to swap cars.
Davey had run with Dumbo in the 500 at Phillip Island. When he was swapped out, rumours were rife that Davey was not actually ill but he had been on IV fluids at times during the week and was most definitely sick. |
