    I would like Lowndes to win.

    Man Ford hasn't done so hot at Bathurst, in the last 15 years or so.

    They haven't won at the Mountain at all, this Century.

    well the new hsv and hrt driver pairings could be back to normal for bathurst.
    stone brothers are complaining saying its not fair.

    so hsv and hrt have to share the same amount of test days between the 2 teams as one team, and even at the test days can only have max of 2 cars so why is it not fair for the teams to share drivers

    why cant ford stop complaining......

    sorry had to get that off my chest

    if skaifes luck turns then he or one of the hsv cars should take bathurst out....back to back bathurst would be great for hrt or if the kelly brothers are still allowed to drive together it would be good to see them win.

    Even if skaife comes last those ford pricks would complain...they hate him for his past ...surely he has been behind the eight ball in todays racing to drop that shit today but they cant....I hope he wins and rubs their noses in it. If Lowndes wins the ford cronies will be happy...good job ford boys back him when he is winning and all the rules are bent to favour the blue oval......

    The #7 jacks daniel commodore will win, richards has always been fast there and with the pace dumbrell had there last year combined in a perkins built commodore they have the perfect package, on sheer pace tander and skaife will be the fastest but the way skaifes car and luck has been going this year i think its gonna hurt tander he looks much better in his toll car

    Will be there for the week trackside and while it would be nice to see Murph win it that probably won't happen with his current equipment

    Really the only two Holden teams with a chance of winning it are the lead HRT /HSV cars so hopefully the HRT car holds together as the HSV car should still be there towards the end

    JDR, SCAR & Tasman would all be outside shots at a podium but will probably be relying on a few of the faster cars falling over

    I've got a funny feeling Ford will break the domination of Holden at the mountain this year, it's a shame as it will be a bad end to a good week and a bit's camping

    The HSV team seem to have the most reliable GM cars this year , so im picking Tander to extend Holdens winning streak at the mountain

    Hell yeah - i'm with ya there troy.

    I've got a bad feeling Ford Might Get it this year, and if it's gonna be a ford then Seton would be nice. (the poor bugger deserves it).

    But i want Skaife to Win again

    Yes, thats is true DeanoHSV

    But that is the worst case scenario....

    Btw, its not just Triple 8 its also alot of other f*** teams and some Holden teams.

    We will have too wait and see then.....

    The rumour on the grapevine is that the loophole in the rules will be closed after Bathurst.

    As they (V8 supercars and TEGA ) don't want to be seen as succumbing to the pressure, from the F*** teams.

    What will they whinge about next ....The VE??

    deano u r right they should worry about they're own cars and get on with the race.
    i really dont see what the big deal is swapping a couple of drivers for a couple of enduros.
    must be a bit worried that the VE wil whoop the pants off the BA/BF

    If Skaife can gethe monkey of his back he's in with a grin or the HSV boys maybe. it would be great to see murph win he's always been thereabouts at the finish line and he's in the habit of keeping his nose clean during the race, the perkins car the same, maybe not the quickest but usually there cause they stay outa trouble if Holden wantsthe win though they are goingto have to sacrifice one car to chase lowndsey if he gets a breakdaway like last year though or he will the first for ford this century history says that ford can't keep it's nose clean however. go HOLDEN
