Bathurst 1000

And a much earned break for the pair of you I suspect.

Sounds like it is going to be a good trip this year, I was actually gonna suggest that you go hunting around the Bathurst area.

As for motoring allegiances, Go Lio Convoy!

There have been rumours ever since Chrysler/Valiant left the competition and Nissan Skylines were ruled out.

I honestly don't think we are likely to see a third manufacturer enter the competition any time soon, for many reasons but mostly the fact that Holden and Ford make too damn much money out of it to let anyone else in.

Unfortunately, the Bathurst Annual has become far too commercialised and is no longer accessible to the 'everyday rev-head', there are a number of lower tear competitions and club runs that utilise the Mount Panorama circuit but it's no longer like the era that Brocky started in - that's for sure.

I think this is the first year in ages where there are likely to be only half a dozen true contenders. Not saying that a darkhorse wont win it (its always possible at Bathurst) but there are 2-3 teams from each manufacturer that just have more money and more equipment capable of winning it.

skyline ftw.....
that is all

skyline ftw.....
that is all

Well Blackie, they did... All the Time!
That is why they were ruled out of the competition - because the only thing that could beat a Skyline was another Skyline.

I have the weekend off for it but i was convinced not to go.
Mates told me that i need a portable TV and that if i don't get there sooner i won't see anything.
I still really have to go one day.

I'll sit at home and watch it on the big screen and then i'll go for a drive in my GT-P in the ads
