Track Map:

A bit out of the ordinary that the some of support series (TCR & GTWC) are more high-level/pro than the main event. I guess this situation wouldn't happen on any other race track.

ARG bought the event/promotion last year, so they are using their series to fill out the weekend card

good for the production car folks as it increases their exposure massively & good for the pro-level ARG series as it gives them a 2nd shot at Bathurst outside of the Supercars promoted events.

Trans-Am on track for their first race.

#5 goes under the tyres

SC

Literally the second I click on the stream, someone buries it hard into the tyres at turn 2.....

At least some trans am racing lets you watch for free

*still bitter*

Still have to change streams for each race

And a lot of damage to that car...

That should be a continous feed

Mostert scraped the wall

Mostert wins

Cars crashing everywhere

Another finish under SC

How do you spin there and not have a big hit?

Mostert wins again

The Mostert/SVG battle is continuing, just in GT cars now.

(or not, Chaz has a stop & go)

Shane is not that far behind Tander in 1st

SVG takes the lead, that was pretty good for a minute there.

Trans-Am is go

These cars are so exciting to see and hear on the limit around here!! Great racing!
