Jamie's more than good enough but I hope he doesn't change his routines and risk 'not playing the natural game' and end up down the back with the Wallies.
Imagine if Jamie DNF's the first race and Will wins it? Best thing for Jamie to do is get pole and run away with it, leave the others to fight over the scraps, as he has done most of the year. |

But the L-R-L-R @ 6-7-8-9 are more 'classically' a "Bus-Stop" set of corners |

My thoughts too, i looked at the map and thought i missed something in his post or something, as the 4-5 corners don't look anything like a busstop. Guess its the 'coach bay' that refers to busstop

yeah it is the coach bay, i guess "bus stop" has a better ring to it then "coach bay".
here is the google view of the "bus stop" to give you a general idea of the area: http://maps.google.com.au/maps?f=q&s...10943&t=h&z=17 they enter in off Edwin Flack ave and exit out around onto Dawn Fraser ave. |

Jamie is a racer, strap the belts on that talk will go out the window. Will on the other hand hasn't fought over a position yet this year. |

I realise that the track goes 'thru' the 'Coach Bay' however, I still think that 6-7-8-9 are more 'classically' a "Bus-Stop" (a-la F1 'slow the cars down') set of corners ! |

Back to the racing....Do you think Lowndes would do a Piquet just to 100% secure the title for his teammate?????

JW has to finish the race to seal the title.

My Favourite 08 moment was when Courtney/Besnard comeback drive at Bathurst. Courtney raced through to dominate the opening stint had 15 sec. gap to Lowndes who was in 2nd. In the 2nd stint a slowly deflating tyre (originally diagnosed as a damaged anti-roll bar) slowed Besnard's stint in Courtney's car allowing Whincup to assert dominance over the field rest of the race. On lap 160 S.Richards, fading badly on rear tyres was unable to stop Courtney move into 3rd place. |

The biggest rivalry this weekend, seemingly forgotten by all is Tander going for Davison's title runner-up position. With only 128 point difference (compared to Davison's 281 point deficit to Whincup) it's the real battle to watch.
My sources tell me Garth is keen to get back on top. |

According to Ticketek, the sales haven't changed much at all over the last 2 - 3 weeks despite the apprarent huge increase in sales since the ABC story. And with only a tiny amount of grandstands to begin with this points to a very large amount of people coming to see Cold Chisel.
