Auto Action V8 Tribute

This weeks Auto Action has a great tribute to twenty years of V8 supercars. Lots of great pictures and stories on both the cars and drivers.
Nothing on how to decorate your Christmas tree, stuffing a turkey or how to knit a table cloth for the big day !

First page and they have an interview with the "Mountain Conquerer". Is it just me or is that a bit rich considering he admitted that was one of his mistakes declaring "there are no sacred sites".

It would have been a bit rich if he had said to people that he wanted to be known as the "Mountain Conquerer" ??

Its a nice conglomeration of stories and articles, but as seems to be more commonplace, there is a price premium to be had for arguably recycling a significant proportion of old content...

There is still so much to uncover before the series starts next year, many seats unfilled, many sponsors yet to be unlocked...

What do we get... zippo...

Theres not even a TV deal to announce. I am sure it was promised "before christmas" wasn't it? No doubt there will be plenty more news in the new year. There's rarely any massive news come Christmas time and it's been that way for many a year now.

Holden had a lot to celebrate in the ad above...

Perhaps Ford Motorsport might do something similar, if they ever discover they are actually competing in V8Supercar

Their maths is slightly out, in the text they talk about the history, yet they arent counting other championships wins/poles etc (nor the 12/24 hour)

Ford have traditions to uphold which is why they won't do anything like that.
