[V8SC10R11&12] Winton Motor Raceway
Some excitement in the air, as the challengers fight the champion.
An orange & silver Holden, a gold black and white Ford with the same DNA, a red & white factory mobile, a blue Falcon.. 4 cars in contention for the title... 29 for the race. Well 28. (Exclude who you believe wont win..) So who will win? C.Lowndes might be hard to toss... |

Its On sprints Again Isn't It. If so, Courtney, Lowndes, The Giz Possible Tander and Holdsworth, However, JC is on a High so i expect his form to continue, with that said Whincup will also be in the mix with a point to prove that he is not rattled so i am tipping some panel damage for this one.

Will stone bros formula pay of again?, Can a yellow mobile creep up, with Voda not leve a car out for to long?
Or will it be a "Marathon around a Clothes Line"? Whats the weather forecast? Should be an interesting race. |

is the standard wet the same compound as the control tyre with grooves added (or more accurately, removed)? interesting to know what the difference in times would be for a wet and a soft. hopefully it rains for some of the race so we can find out, and provide even more action

I'd love to see the Fujitsu boys on the podium - or at least one of them. I think D'Alberto might surprise a few as well.

I'd love to say SBR/Giz for the win, but I don't think their quite there yet.
Whincup, Tander and Courtney to fight over top spot. With, Van Gizbergen, Lowndes and Winterbottom to fight over the scraps. |

Should be intersting as this is a power down track, so the soft tyre should really help the drive off the corners, and then go off much faster.
I think the wet is a different compound to the control dry. Much softer. |

Why does everyone associate Winton with rain? I reckon there have been more wet Bathursts & Sandowns than wet Winton's but anyway.
You will need to pack your woolley's for the nights (sorry Wolloey - LOL), but the days look great, cold nights always normally mean a beautiful sunny day. This is typical weather for NE Vic for this time of the year. |

So Owen Kelly showing Ricciardello how its done?
How can it be that a co-driver is faster than the main driver? Very perplexing! Oh wait, its Ricciardello. |
