Day 1 ladies and gentlemen,
My view for the next 4 days.
Senna chicane

They just showed a clip of the Carrera Cup turn 8 accident during Super 2 practice. It was massive. Biggest turn 8 crash there has been for a while.

It was always going to look like one of the previous Boost/WAU liveries. There's only so much you can do with orange as their corporate colour, and they've pretty much used up all the options to go with it (black, white & silver).

Yeah, it's very same-ish from the last couple of years with WAU but still looks very good. Liking it a lot. Really hope that the black rims weren't just for the reveal though.

I was just watching a pit walk on FB and it seems as though they were just for the reveal, but I don't think that surprises any of us.

It's the beginning of the year. Not like changing wheel colors mid-season. May seem small to the owners, but to some of fans, details like that, help us to get onboard with these liveries. Sucks to tease stuff like that every year and not follow through.

On a TCM note, that #58 EFS Camaro looks awesome on tv! Also the #25 deep red wine burgundy colored Camaro.
 
Looking at the timing for the first S2 practice session earlier. Abbie Eaton didn't do too bad. Think 4 odd seconds off the fastest time isn't too shabby at all for the her first time at the track.

I hope Abbie was just replaying herself into the car/track & being very sensible about the limit.

If she was anywhere near her limit, she’s going to look at those 4 seconds as being an eternity & she’s in trouble.
 
Had a chat with a workmate. A big mistake not signing Ingall. The commentary team would have had three Champions on the panel and two recent ex-racers. Looks empty without him.

I saw like 20 or so minutes of practice, and when they showing her, she was being quite conservative through the Senna Chicane. Obviously just to get used to the car and track and what not.

I wonder if this was WAU's big announcement: https://www.hsv.com.au/see/camaro/ They shared it on FB an hour ago. I'll be pretty disappointed if it is.

Edit: I think it is, I just got an email from them about it as well.

Just saw it on Twitter. The WAU cars are going to be carrying Camaro ZL1 stickers on the rear quarters for the weekend. That seems to be the extent of the "announcement".
 
Yeah, safe to say I won’t be heading into the track until a bit later. Not even midday and it’s already 37°. :crazy: Lucky I’m only a quick bus ride away, with the stop just outside the main entrance from the CBD.
