How the fark can they judge that? Can see that holdwoo are putting the coin into the supercars. Tanders car leaking liquid of some sort black flag. Then they cancel it and his car falls to bits. Black flag for safety. Of course notAnd they wonder why people are loosing interest in the "sport" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are getting desperate to try & stir up interest.The crash at the start was good but the rest of the race was boring. Pity about Winterbottom's car though maybe Youlden is bad luck for him?

Pete A Member 442 Member For: 16y 20d Gender: Male Location: Castle Hill NSW Posted 23/10/10 09:59 AM Share Posted 23/10/10 09:59 AM The whole V8 Supercar race business is corrupt and lacks consistency. I didn't watch the race (I've only watched about 30 laps of Bathurst all year) but clearly a lot were upset about it. Why don't Ford just pull out of it all together? What's the point These organisers don't deserve the success. Chuck it in. When you think of it though, many other sports are being ruined by the organisers. Not just V8 Supercars. olympics, Rugby, Cricket, you name it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree with the later but not the former, don't know if that's just a case of being faithful and hoping if it's not true though.Yesterday's calls from the stewards were unbelievably inconsistent to the point that it effected everyone on the track and the result of the race. No smacks given out for a couple of stray wheels sent flying in pit lane, all the contact throughout the race that was affecting positions, a stupid black flag for an overfull drink bottle that was then withdrawn (never happened before), no black flag for loose bodywork on Tander's car that shortly after lost a headlight that could have caused all sorts of damage and would have been preventable, and then a drive-through for Courtney for breaching the restart when he was warming his friggin tyres. Regardless of who you support that's all just friggin laughable. Glad I didn't waste the money and effort going down to watch it this weekend like I was going to...fark I would have been pretty pissed otherwise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
