Bugger, would have been great to meet a fellow TBK-er finally.

Just got back from the Clipsal launch in the city. Quite a few drivers there (Skafie, Murphy, Richards, Van Gisbergen, Canto, Holdsworth, Slade, Ingall, Courtney and Johnson), a handfull of cars including 8 V8's (3 of which were real, minus gearbox and engine, the rest were painted up road cars), 1 Fujitsu car (mock up), 2 Wests, 2 TCM cars (1 porsche, 1 camaro), 2 GT cars (Gallardo and Porsche GT3) and a Ferrari 599 GTB road car, and a Jessica Mauboy concert to finish the afternoon off. Just a few announcements that came from the launch.

1. The free age for children has been raised from 12 to 14 for any child who attends with an adult ticket holder.
2. A new parking lot and 'Australia's biggest beer garden' will be made on one of the ovals within the circuit.
3. Murray Walker will be back as the track commentator.
4. Hamish and Andy will be broadcasting their radio show live from the circuit on the Friday for SAFM's "Pants off friday party".
5. Concerts.
Thursday: Eskimo Joe + 1 support
Friday: TBA at a later date (something special apparently)
Saturday: Jess Mauboy, Wes Carr + this years idol winner
Sunday: Status Quo, Noiseworks, Ian Moss and Mental as Anything
6. Support Categories
Fujitsu V8's. Australian GT Championchip returns, as does the Aussie Racing Cars and Touring Car Masters. The utes will return with a bonus 'legends race' (i'm assuming this would be old v8 drivers in utes). 2 new categories on the bill. Mini Challenge here for the first time, as well as Super Sports, which is basically IMSA lights, with West's and such.

I was reading ALPHA sport mag today and it says A1 is just on fox sports and V8 Supercars on 7.

Some photo's (apologies for quality, they were taken on my mobile phone, but they aren't too bad).

2 Wests which will race in the Super Sports category


A Touring Car Masters Camaro


Lamborghini Gallardo and Porsche GT3


A selection of the V8 supercars on display. Bargwanna's Sprint Gas Commodore, Russel Ingalls Supercheap Auto Commodore and Steven Richards Castrol Falcon (Both the commodores were real supercars, albiet with no running gear in them, the Falcon was a road car painted up and with the body kit). They also had Holdsworth's Valvoline Commodore (the third real one), Courtney's Jim Beam Falcon (was a standard falcon with paint on it, no spoilers or nothing) and Tander's HRT Commodore (same as Courtney's). There was also a couple of Utes there (one of which has quite a few battle scars on it).


Ferrari 599 GTB (the V8 in the background was a road car 'mock-up' or Jay Verdnick's Fujitsu series car


The Drivers: From left to right; Steven Johnson, James Courtney, Russell Ingall, Tim Slade, Lee Holdsworth, Will Davison, Shane van Gisbergen, Dean Canto, Steven Richards and Greg Murphy


Some guy, i think his name was Will Davison, apparently won some thing called Bathurst last weekend, whatever that is ( ) doing an interview for TV

Can't be bothered starting up a new thread.

Um, what track?

Gold Coast Street Track

Whilst I'm looking forward to the extra distance of racing this weekend, the shorter races 200km down to 150km does reduce the chance of brake wear coming into play.

Hopefully there is at least one good race this weekend, but more than likely it will be just follow the leader with maybe a crash or two. Not much expected. Fingers crossed that 7 show some Aussie Racing Cars but more than likely the support action shown will come from Formula Ford and the Minis. As well as showing some of the Australian Legends.

The Australian Legends, a late addition to the program to kill some of the gap left by the A1GP, are 10 classic Australian Touring cars doing demonstration runs.

Allan Moffat's ‘69 Mustang
Allan Moffat's ‘71 GTHO Phase 3
Norm Beechey’s ’70 HT GTS 350 Monaro
Ian Geoghegan’s ’71 GTHO Super Falcon
Peter Brock’s ‘78 A9X
Peter Brock's VL Commodore,
Kevin Bartlett’s ‘79 Camaro
Dick Johnson’s ‘81 Tru Blu XD Falcon
Dick Johnson's ‘84 Greens Tuf XE Falcon
Jim Richards ‘85 JPS 635 BMW

Im going again, ill be at the track all day tomoz and the rest of the days aswell. It's the first time we wont be in a hotel room either which is gonna suck, but we know people there so might be able to join in with them for a bit. Hopefully it's good even without indycars or a1gp...

If anyone cares, Dale Wood will be back in the 16 this weekend. Expect plenty of bent panels towards the back then (but not as far back as McNally, who couldn't even keep up with Dean Fiore, he was that slow...)

Some regulation changes for the weekend
Grid Positions for Race 19 Leg 1 set by Friday/Saturday Qualifying.
Grid Positions for Race 19 Leg 2 set by Race 19 Leg 1 Results.
Grid Positions for Race 20 Leg 1 set by Sunday Qualifying.
Grid Positions for Race 20 Leg 2 set by Race 20 Leg 1 Results.

CPS: During each of the 4 legs a compulsory pit stop must be made where the car is refuelled with at least 50 litres of fuel.

Tyre allocation. 22 New Control (up from 16), 8 pre marked control, 12 wet weather control. An additional 4 pre marked control are allowed for cars able to take part in Part A of practice.

Chicane Shortcuts: During a race, any driver who cuts a chicane and achieves a sector time less than those detailed may be penalized by the Stewards.
Sector 1: 0m49s
Sector 2: 1m23s
Sector 3: 1m50s.
Note: The stewards at their sole discretion may amend these times should circuit, weather or other conditions require.

A driver who shortcuts the track during practice/qualifying will result in that lap time being disallowed.

Points:
Each leg: 75-69-65-60-56-51-48-45-42-39-36-35-33-32-30-29-27-26-24-23-21-20-19-18-17-15-14-12-11-9-7

Just to confuse things: The aggregate points achieved by each driver in Legs 1 & 2 of a race will become the VCS points for that race.

It was surprisingly quite good today. Formula Fords had about 8 red flags today lol.

Glenn Seton is racing in the Mini Challenge this weekend.
3rd fastest P1, fastest P2, 3rd fastest qualifying.

Thursday results are here. 2 practices and qualifying for the Minis, practice qualifying and a race for the Aussie Racers, 2 practices and qualifying for the Formula Fords.

Natsoft has McNally in the car which seems accurate seeing he was 3 seconds off Fiore's pace in Part A, and is currently 2.6 seconds off Fiore's pace in Part B.

Seems like a bit of carnage today. (all from Ten-Tenths)
Part A - Red Flag 8 mins in. D'Alberto head on at Turn 2 chicane. Hence didn't take part in Part B.
Part B - Red Flag Debris.
Part B - Red Flag. Patrizi into tyres at final turn. Got it going again and back to pits.
Part B - Perkins spun, head on with Bright. Both continued to pits.
Part B - Holdsworth wiped off the LHS off his Commodore in the pits.
Part B - Red Flag. Whincup hard into the fence at the T2 Chicane. Fair bit of work to do.

McNally still not within 105%

Race 19 Part A Results
[spoiler]1st Safety Car - Lap 1 for Jason Richards failing to take the back straight chicane due to broken steering. Toddler, McConville, D'Alberto all caught out down at Turn 3 on Lap 1.
On the restart Whincup and Bright made contact, puncturing Whincup's right rear and damaging Bright's power steering.
2nd Safety Car - For Fiore at Turn 3.
3rd Safety Car - Holdsworth failed to negotiate the 1st chicane, and Caruso in between Bargwanna and Whincup entered the chicane without seeing the stranded Holdsworth and couldn't do much to avoid hitting the tyres and clipping the front of Holdsworth. Both GRM cars out together.

Great drive from Van Gisbergen 18th to 5th. Whincup dropped to 27th after his puncture and recovered to 13th.
