When I've been off this year, I've had a chain of trying to stay up to watch these races, seeing some fantastic racing in the support classes, then falling asleep before the supercars start.

Then waking up and finding out I didn't miss much in the main race.

Kind of same here, I tend to watch more of the support races and then when the main event starts I just can't get myself to care.

Often the Top 10 Shootout is often more interesting to me than the race because you see individual cars on the limit.

Welp, I hope this is their final race now they've wrecked a third of the field

(3 cars nose to tail in like the Toyotas yesterday)

Haha the director knows that driver is pissed of and is staying with him as he swears away. :mrgreen:

Almost identical to the toyota pile up with the leader piling into the tyres and 3 behind having no time to avoid

So I was wrong, 4 utes involved

5 utes left... :o

I think those three are done for the day. Not enough time to fix just the important parts.

Time Supercars did something about this IMO, but they'll probably go full nascar and cut HP and increase downforce instead

a slight downforce cut is planned for 2020 - horsepower is also getting a slight cut (10 to 20 horsepower) as they are banning the high-tech piston rings the teams are using, so they can get more mileage out of them. Supercars never really had more than 650HP, so it's only a cut to 635 basically

NASCAR and Supercars have had alot of meetings lately, as it seems bits of the Next Gen cars will be cross-platform - NASCAR will be copying alot of what Supercars is doing with their next car at the very least (transaxle, independent rear suspension, side skirt design)

Now that's one of the best onboard camera shots of the year on the rear wing of Fullwood's super 2

A shame there are no similar views in the main game...

And someone has rolled in the Aussie Racing Cars, what a shocker...

That was an interesting one, he rolled the car off of the kerb.

Freaking cameraman saw a car about to roll over and thought it wasn't interesting enough so panned away

The Monza cameraman gets around :lol:
