[iV8SC13R03,R04,R05] Microsoft 365, Symmons Plains: 5-7 Apr
Who?
How? By How Far? What will the new boys do? Can Ford get to the front & stay there? Did 888 find their magic race strategy book? Or did it get 'Monstered' Not long now... |

FPR have been strong here in recent years.
Although, it's hard to ignore the more recent form of Tekno, BJR and GRM. The Redbull cars will figure in the results somewhere. |

I think FPR will be strong here.Throw in the Tekno boys, Fabs, Brighty and team 888 and we could potentially have a great meeting.
Rusty might be the wildcard ? |

Is there compulsory pitstops in the two Sunday races?
How will the 60/60 format play out? |

Maybe they're count the amount of qualifying laps a car could potentially do?

365 comes from the number of days a Microsoft product will frustrate you each year

If Microsoft is involved in the event can we expect lots of 'crashes'?

It is still a very good sign that V8SA has signed a mega-company like Microsoft to the series as a round sponsor.
Might silence a few doomsdayers... but I doubt it.. |

Yes, jokes aside, it's very prestigious brand to have involved. I'm sure Mercedes-Benz would be happy, if Mercedes-Benz were to be officially involved...

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a suspicious 'crash' if a Ford happened to be leading from the 'born to rule' Holden teams.
By the way, is Holden's Cameron McConville the Driving Standards Observer? Anyway, at least the weekend should be virus free thanks to the Norton Nissans, although on second thoughts, Microsoft has its own free Security Essentials antivirus software for its users, so Norton is not required any more. |
