You serious? He said that?! Well, that's another loss for Webbhead.

Wil Davison was just about where Lebrocq is. They just happened to win at Bathurst(Oh, Ye of little faith. I remember it was he who walked away and didn't want to watch the outcome).

I quoted Webb as best I could from memory & what I read that he said on Speedcafe.

That’s very close to the quote though. It’s more than a vibe thing.
 
Two RX-7s and two R33s in this Sports GT race.
 
So over Tekno and Webb! Use to be a fan of both, massive supporter of the underdog, now use JLB as a scapegoat, How about you pull finger out and give him the goods? we should just rewind to this time last year... Did he not Qual and race P5? Because Rullo has totally done anything to justify or warrant being in the series. Tekno apparently are commited to the series but if you're just gonna treat your driver like crap and throw him out when the going gets tough, I'd rather have you gone.

Just had an interview with JLB and said the car, parts and equipment is around 4 years old? Must be some S2 cars newer than that...

Now the picture at Tekno becomes clearer.
 
I think I saw @05XR8 waiting for the race up here in Newcastle.

Weirdly though, it's not the oldest chassis on the grid. Courtney's current car was originally built in 2013. :lol:
 
Wonder if any of the Altimas(other than Rick's, of course) are that old.
 
Are you sure about that?? iirc 2017 Sandown he went back into the chassis which was crashed in Tasmania, which was built in 2016, I highly doubt they went back 7 years

Just going off this article. Mentions how Pye had a new chassis last year. While JC's was first used in the 2013 season.
 
Tough luck for Pye, does the exact same time as Percat but is eliminated.
 
On another note, So apparently drivers, can do a qual setup do some laps, set a lap and convert to a race setup before the end of the season, Anyone else think it should be like F1 and you can't change as soon as you leave the garage?
 
Interesting Q2. Didn't even need to change the ballast... 6 Holdens over 4 Fords. Need to balance the top 10

Edit: Well alright then. Good on him.

This is the article refering to the chassis that was damaged at Tassie. And reintroduced from sandown.

Not sure when the switch happened and what chassis their current spare ZB was originally. Could possibly be that car. But Courtney's current chassis is definitely the one from six seasons ago. (Article from last year)
That changed with Pye’s new-for-2018 Commodore, WR 024, which was ready for the start of the season and one of two in the pipeline.

James Courtney is racing WR 018, a 2013-build chassis last raced by Lee Holdsworth in the then-four-car Walkinshaw Racing stable in ’15.

It spent the last two years as a spare before being converted to a ZB.

Strange that for whatever reason they haven't bothered giving JC a new chassis like they have for Pye. You'd think that with all the development from last year that they would have put together a new one.

Edit: Speaking of. Good quali for JC. T8 equipment certainly seems to be agreeing with Winterbottom. Good to see him on pole.
 
Ballast what?

Qualifying 2nd and 4th at a typically Triple Eight-dominated track. Jamie 25th :lol:
 
You do realise that my article I linked was posted after yours?
 
Lil Castrol Nissan Correction: Camaro Aussie Racing Car. Too cute.
 
Good job Frosty. Always nice to have Whincup at the back. Should be an interesting race.

Not quite sure how an article from 2018 can be posted before one from 2017 but whatever. Looking forward to the race.
 
Sharky.

No no, he's starting 15th as he got into the second qualifying session, and caused a red flag.
 
Confusingly the timing totem listed him in 25th during Q2.
 
Yeah Jamie. You couldn't pull up because you were braking on the dirt. Silly Billy. "My brakes...".

Wonder what else the #88 changed when it was allowed to change brakes.
 
Oh Sorry, i thought your one was from 2017 also haha. That's so weird that he's had a a 2016 Chassis in 2017, wonder why the change?
 
Literally don't understand why everyone gives whincup ****?
