Bathurst 1000

[pknz]

So the great race has begun, Mark Skaife got hit in the first lap and is now out.

I don't really follow V8 Supercars, but I always seem to watch the Mount Panorama race.

Any others watching?

There was a nice tribute to Peter Brock before the race.

Sorry, watching other V8 powered cars tonight.

My dad's watching it in the next room, so I'm listening to it.

...can't say I'm really all that interested though. I prefer F1.

I watched Marcus Ambrose in the Nascar truck race today live on tv, i could get live timing of the F1's from Japan online.. for the Bathurst race which is of most interest to me... i get tiny minute snippets of information online every few hours.

Damn shame about Skaife...was really hoping he could get the win. So long as it is a Holden win i guess i will be happy.

I stop watching once Skaife's out.

getting close to the end, and lowndes is first, kelly second and a safety car... its going to be a good last few laps

EDIT: Phord wins.... Half a second in front of Kelly!! grr...

Was a good race, shame skaife went out the way he did.

RIP Mark Porter, who passes away following a crash in the development series on friday afternoon.

RIP. I still can't believe it happened. I've seen far worse crashes with the drivers just walking away. Very unlucky.

He was from Hamilton, which is where I am currently living. Many people I know around here know his family well. Real shame.
