2006 - Can HRT do It??
Bring it on.
Can't wait for season to start.
Will be interesting to see how James Courtney goes as Ambrose's replacement. I would tip Ingall to be very much on fire.
I have a good feeling about HRT chances.
I hope Steven Richards gets along a bit more this year. He seems to run very consistently then he either gets bad luck or Paul Dumbrell crashes it on an enduro...
Lowndes will be in the mix too I spose...

It would be fantastic way to say goodbye to the VZ Commodore, with Holden winning the championship.. unless they're going to still race it in 2007 after VE comes out? Silhouette category? Return of Group A? Homologation specials? YAY!

As long as skaife drives, HRT have no hope(dont get me wrong i love skaife just think its time he hands the drive over he has too much to do). Ingall wont be on fire, he wasnt on fire last year, the new points system is a joke, had any driver finished 7th all year they would have won the championship, doesnt say much for cars that win

I thought greg & rick were a good combo...
my personal view is that Paul Wheel & Greg are not so good a combo.
I mean Greg can drive the wheels off all year, then Paul gets in on the enduros...
Greg had some rather bad luck last year with gearbox etc... should be right this year hopefully.

Tander will also be up there!
I was thinking the same about skaife, drive, or operate, too stressful doing both! Maybe Tom might want it back.....

If triple8 racing keep getting the setup right than Lowndes will be a good chance. HRT havent been there but are clwing back. Richards will be up there, but it looks like it'll be another close season.

I agree with most of the comments here...
With Tom back at HRT hopefully he has taken over a large portion of Skaife's official role with HRT and Holden and Mark can concentrate on driving once again. Bring back the HRT dominance
Also, keep an eye on McConville. He has finally gotten into a team that is capable of constant podium finishes. Hopefully the guys at supercheap will support him unlike Garry Rogers who seemed to only provide disapointment.

Now for a prayer...
To our god, who art made in Adelaide, Holden be thy name, Thy legends come, and championships won, on circuits as it is on Mount Panorama, give us this day our daily grunt, and forgive us our burnouts, as we forgive those who choose to drive fords, and lead us into temptation, and deliver us a V8, for thine is the spirit, the power, and the glory are yours, now and for ever.
HOLDEN!
