What that have done over that short amount of time has been nothing but professionalism and must be embarrasing considering a number of teams have been doing this for years and not accomplished what they have done in this amount of time. I know some will say oh yes but Penske still have the back up and support back in USA, but so do many other teams. Congrats to them and if Scotty aint racing in USA in 2020 it will be 2021 for sure !!!!

I agree. They have taken V8 Supercars by storm. They have engineered their cars well and that should be applauded. They’ve got that advantage, so why not use it? The other teams can catch up. It’s still close racing and I look forward to hearing more

Penske came in to the championship and pinpointed their number one rival, then pinpointed their number one technical brain in the team and then poached him. I'd have more respect for them if they had recruited and build their success from with in the team. They have done very well and are now a well oiled team, but some of the success was bought. Fact! |

Very convenient answers, pity they have little subsistence. I said superstar personnel who had a considerable impact on their early success. Not mercenary's or no names.

I must say, the tit-for-tat Triple Eight/DJRTP arguements are getting pretty old now.

If Frosty wasn't happy with TR's performance, you'd have to wonder how long he will want to endure the lack of results that come with team 18.
Perhaps this is why he was trying to amend his previous comments made against TR last year - to keep his options open |

Like it or not, 888 turned up with a big cheque book and waved it around. Recruited from within the industry and invested heavily in rescources. Dwarfing anything anyone had done before and raised the bar.
12 years later someone else has turned up and gone bigger and going bigger was the only way to topple 888. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk |

And to Further add to my post, to have Roger Penske and the Big Boys from USA engaging with the fans in Perth being involved is fantastic. Everything about them is professionalism from the top down and the cream on the cake is Scotty Mac, he seems to carry the same mantle and persona of PB and CL. A credit to himself.

I agree. This is great for the series. Having that link up makes others raise their game. What a combination. There is more to come

Roger always tries to get to Perth. It's an important business centre for him, the corporate hospitality there is probably more important to him than even Bathurst.

I'm not a fan of JC, have never been, mainly through lack of interest in what he was doing O/S. But since he's come into the category, he didn't get anywhere with SBR, managed to string something at DJR with a T8 chassis, then Clayton thought they could buy their way to another championship with him coming over. Obviously hasn't happened, not going to happen. Some guys just need to realise it's time to walk away. |

As long as he is enjoying what he does, and is employed, why should he walk away? Thats not to say he will be employed... |
