It was a few years ago though, I haven't watched Bathurst in ages.

Sorry to barge in again.
I just forgot to say that I'm sorry for trolling your Topic here and disengage it from its true intention.
But I couldn't help but say that I find it deeply offensive that a bunch of you NERDS (ex Bojack) think you have the right to even discuss Bathurst.
Punching above your weight?
If it helps - there is a 'slot-car' race down at the Markets this weekend. I'm sure you can all play "Broom-broom" there.

Adios! Wink

AIMLESS EXTENTION OF KNOWLEDGE HOWEVER, WHICH IS WHAT I THINK YOU REALLY MEAN BY THE TERM 'CURIOSITY', IS MERELY INEFFICIENCY. I AM DESIGNED TO AVOID INEFFICIENCY.

Why gamble? If Team A is ferked and no chance of winning, why would a Manager/Owner of said Team not go to Manager of Team B whose car is in deep fuel schit and offer to prang Team A's car to ensure a 'safety car' event.

Or am I expecting too much of human nature when there are huge dollars at stake?

Have to admit though I haven't found Bathurst all that interesting since 1992. Bring back the turbos.

Yesterday's race was one of the better ones in recent years.

It has been quite boring recently.

And the presenters are quite annoying, at times.

I thought the worst was the pitlane reporter. Just no sense of occasion at the end.

I saw the 12 hour in 2014, there. Those are the cars I lvoe.
