Yeah, wouldn't miss it Andy. Looks like Craig has taken over the "King of the Mountain" title from his mentor.

NASCAR could take a leaf from the Aussie V8's methinks, i.e. factory bodyshells etc.

And Ford could take a leaf out of GM's book, and offer the V8 Falcon over here against the Monario. But they wouldn't want to incur the wrath of the eco-fascists :roll:

Not seen it yet, kind of hoping it will be on terrestial (or at least Freeview) some time soon.

Looks like Craig did it, and a torrid last set of laps in the rain.

Great minds think alike Steve, this is from my Aussie trip photo album in the trusty Nissan E20 camper-van. 15 years ago ! Must get back there again.

Not great driving by Matt Neal in the last race. What the heck was that all about :?
I don't think Plato had the pace to win the last race but Neal should be ashamed of his own behaviour .

matt neal did great for the first couple of races but plato i think his injuries were getting to him as he was on the attack untill the last race [ok the last few laps he went a bit mental] the battle with the two bmws was pretty cool nice them as its usually vauxhall and honda at the front shame bout plato but he will be back on top form next year me hopes
