    Well, she loves Ford, and I thought it would be cool.
    Was down in pit lane on the Wednesday before the race (we get there early to set up)
    Plus it was on our 17 month (if only it was a month later )

    Well 17 is a good number if she is a Ford fan. Big Dick and little Dick johnson's car number. Might be a good sign! BTW go Murph and Skaife this year!!!

    I don't have plans of going this year but have been 4 times before, last time was the one just after Brocky died.
    It is an Australian event that every guy should go to, I can't say I would take my Mrs though.
    The last one I went to was a very surreal event, I still remember looking to my right during the minute silence after the parade lap of Brock's old cars and seeing tears roll out behind the sunnies of a big burly bikie looking dude.

    I still P.O'd at my old work over last years Bathurst. I won tickets for the Castrol booth through a promotion they ran (Since I was in charge of Parts and Accessories I ordered the workshop oil, so I entered the competition and I won the tickets) The Dealer Principal (the title of the person in charge of a car dealership for those who are unaware) took himself, the workshop manager, his brother in law and a family friend.

    Well I'm the stupid idiot that got married in the first weekend of October.
    Bathurst for me is ruined forever.
    I deserve a bitch slap.

    I can't believe that those two hotheads are driving together...

    I haven't been to Bathurst for years now, but I used to go every year when Brocky was driving.

    Should be a god race with all the wet weather expected during the week, just hope someone stops the 888 car getting four in a row, but unless a Roo tries to kill Lowndes again, I cant really see anyone doing it. As much as it pains me to say it, the Fords are just better cars this season.
