Bunnings Trade Sydney SuperNight 2021 Supercars Race 20, 21 and 22

chavez · 29 Oct 2021, 03:22 (Ref:4080513)

The first of four back to back race meetings at Sydney Motorsport Park.

Fortunately Sydney Motorsport Park is blessed with several different circuit layouts to keep up the interest among drivers, spectators and TV viewers across the four weekends.

Unfortunately drivers, spectators and TV viewers won't be so blessed.

However it is great to have Supercars back.

Who will win?

I have seen some ads on 7 about supercars but they never said the date or if it will be on free to air tv . I presumed they tease us with ads but its on fox . Just saw an ad which actually said when and where the event is and lo and behold it is on free to air tv .
Hope the corporates aren't missing out on a new porsche or beach house on our behalf .
Btcc runs fine with 3 people in charge . When do we remove these corporate bloodsuckers ?

Wasn’t one of the selling points supposed to be the crowd?
The teev isnt showing too many punters around..

Eastern Creek has always had poor attendance figures.

The selling point was that they could complete their tv contractural obligations without having to worry about border restrictions.Collect $30million and pass go.
I was out there for the 3 days.Did a quick head count in the grandstand just before the 1st Sunday race.Around 60 people in the whole grandstand.
The next 2 weekends will be less I would guess.

Agree with the first part, absolutely.
Would be a nice option on this forum to Thank a post, when it contains good info.

@ Mixer
Really enjoying the 2 Erebus drivers form also. Can only see things improving - well done to them.
Right time for Whincup, almost feels like he is already wearing more than one hat (helmet) at the team....maybe due to Covid impact.

I am interested to see the progression of teams when rolling out week after week at the same track.

It was billed as a SuperNight but it didn’t get really dark until halfway through the race and it was over in no time….

Maybe they should have run all the races on Saturday to ensure the whole crowd is there for the night race instead of having the main day of racing on the Sunday ?

Oran Park day-night meetings....

A full day and night of fun.

Getting out of the place afterwards was definitely not fun and it shows exactly how far domestic motor racing live audience participation has fallen. I don't know if the lack of live spectators is a problem, they all sit at home in comfort and watch it on the TV which we had but it was pretty damn poor.

I'm certain the audio guy in the truck ramps up the volume when the cars are revving up on the grid for the start of the race.

I cant resist, what made you take the considerable trouble to write that totally inane comment.

Team Erebus boys certainly impressed, hopefully Will “WD-40” Brown and Master Kosteki can keep that form up for the rest of the year!

Anton has certainly come out firing on cylinders.

Boy haven't they - I have to give it up, I was wrong, 2 rookies and both are very fast. Both were impetuous and overdrove, but boy they were fast and it didn't look like the pressure of a one lap run with changeable conditions got to them. I really do think Brodie is the real deal, and has led the direction of set up, and considering the relative resources and experience, Erebus is in fine form.

Didn't he what - smashed the whole field including Will by half a second both days.

Funny I don't hear any bleating about parity - despite this being an exact role reversal of Shane smashing people earlier in the year.

DJRTP have REALLY got it right, and Anton is flying. Both Anton and Will had potential to put a much better result in the books. You only have to see Cam Waters troubles to know how close this competition is now, with ~1 sec covering 2nd-18th at one point. Anton's performance was a cut above, but the rest are all so close together - it is just down to the individual team & driver. The way it should be.

I thought it was a great weekend's racing, the first corner racing was WILD but everyone got through OK - definitely a few close shaves though.

I'm loving the young blood up the front - these guys are all very likeable and talented. Jamie I think has chosen his time to retire perfectly.

Someone sprung with a dodgy vaccine exemption?

Reynolds or Winterbottom?

Shouldn't have been allowed to race with it in the first place. Bloody obvious what is going on.

With any luck it is thrown out and the naturopath or whatever retard write it up should be prosecuted.

Frosty.

It's a dumb move, no matter which angle you observe it from. He could have just sat out the rest of the season until the jab mandate was lifted...

I wonder if we will move to European style with RATs used every 2 days but then these same ****ing spanners claim the RATs cause cancer.

I'm glad Supercars have at least had the balls to mandate it, the AFL and NRL are pussyfooting too much. They should just bring in the mandate and let the idiots go if need be.

It wasn’t Supercars who mandated it.It was the ARDC.Until today an unvaccinated competitor could have competed at Bathurst.That loophole has been closed off for unvaccinated competitors,officials and spectators today.Thank goodness.
I am pretty sure the AFL has mandated it.The NRL is just being weak and endangering the health of all players to cater for the anti vax nutters in the playing ranks.

Supercars supported it, and pushed the barrow.

And rightly so.

I don’t think the ARDC had a choice, the site as we know is owned by the NSW Government, would have been a bad look to allow non-vaccinated people on site when you are pushing vaccinations.

Supercars statements on the matter have seemed to tread the line of “we want you ti get vaccinated but we don’t want to say you have to get vaccinated”

A black Mustang that isn't entered by Tickford is the powder room info that I have.

That would not be surprisingly but I heard it might have been the hometown boy.

Could it be both? They are both wing nuts.

Maybe t18 and Grove will fight over Caruso

Guess we are lucky that Brock is no longer with us. Dr Eric would probably have come up with some magic crystals and be busy peddling that they were superior to the recognised vaccines.
