Some people are too one eyed to see that things happen to both sides. I will keep watching and just hope that Ford can take em down this year.You can't compare the Lowndes/Ambrose penalties to this as they are decided by different people... TEGA don't hand out the drive throughs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man didn't Lowndes and Ambrose get off light on those one's God your so one eyed!They got drive through penalties, happens all the time.How about Dumbrell I think it was who hit Jack Perkin's last round when Jack's car shut down and slowed suddenly? That was harsh.How about the toughest penalty is V8 Supercar history...The 5 mins Murphy copped at Bathurst?←Thanks god, finally a reasonable and balanced view I agree with the 'one eyed' comment as well - who won the championship in 2003-2005 Get over it, and if you dont want to watch it, well that's your choice, or should I say LOSS The V8 spectator base is growing year by year, so they will probably survive a few 'fans' taking up other sports!!

( do I dare say BRIBE ?? )If you can break the rules, and then make a payment to keep it all sweet, then whats the point ?????YOU CAN'T GET HALF PREGNANT....... You either were CAUGHT, or you're INNOCENT..... PAYING A SETTLEMENT = CAUGHT...... Sorry channel 7, Advertisers & Sponsors.... I'm not going to bother anymore..... truely.... got more important things in life to do.... than watch a contrived "racing show"...........................

Better competition = more entertainment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's be nice to have more brands competing, but hey, we never know....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
