V8 Superstars 3

[Y2kGoofball]

Anyone watch it?

It was fairly funny but everything we know already

Seton "Nostradamus" read from the whose going where list already posted here in another thread (the one from V8 Central) and made mention of Murph to PWR, Ingall locked in for a year at SBR, Skaife was asked about Kelly, yes locked in at HRT as well, Ambrose happy to stay at SBR, Brad Jones and the future, will he or Bowe be moving? yes and no, only if either driver really wants to but not at this stage, and dodged the wheres Seto going topic

He did however mention many times his dissapointment in FPR through comments such as "those (illegal modifications found on ambrose car ie wire and richos car ie suspension) should be given to FPR", or "Its clearly not Lowndes fault we get DNF's"

I thought skaife "spilling" his drink over Jones was funny as ^_^ ^_^

Otherwise fairly boring, they had a fairly long discussion on judicial rulings and the like, Steve Richards (mightve been Skaife I cant remember now lol) mentioned how it is good to see them finding things like Ambroses wire or Richos suspension because it shows they are checking cars, Ingall commented he wished both Ambrose and Richards lost points so he could take over the championship ^_^ Skaife commented on how under the current judging system their virtually able to take a 6 litre engine to Bathurst and pay the 5 grand "fine for breach of ruling" in advance, which even Jones said he cant afford but if it means he can put a 6 litre V8 in his Falcon then he can win back the 5 grand easily on the Monroe pole position award ^_^

Otherwise fairly boring :blush:

I wonder when they are going to be bringing that program over to New Zealand?

The only v8 driver we get to see is Murph on Sports Cafe (or is it that other sports program?)

I thought you guys got it :mad:

Oh they were also poking fun at Murph, Ingall "saw a bloke in a blue shirt jump the pit wall and come running from Brights pit bay" lol

After murph pointed at the other bloke in a blue shirt, Seton, they interviewed the audience and a lady saw Murph before the show where he gave her a box of screws, a drill etc and a bunnings bag ^_^

The other think they poked fun at was Barbagello (I think it was) where Murph and Ingall went sliding off at the same time. Ingall said to Murph he coulda at least waived his hand or something to let Ingall know the road was slippery and "take it easy through here"

also QLD 300 where they showed Murph driving the damaged #51 back to the pits, with smoke pouring out of it after the 1st corner incident ... he's "one bloke that refuses to walk back to pit bay, thats for darn sure" and he laughed and said he Bowe tried to move his car which didnt work, but Murph wasnt walking back to pit lane, no way!

also ambrose told skaife thats "4 wheel driving" where he let the air out of the tyres and got his car back on the black stuff, although as he said he was 4x4 the weekend before so he should have known to let the air out of the tyres before 15 laps had passed him by! Skaife replied "I know, I used to race four wheel drive cars ;) "

I doubt Jones would be moving anywhere.. His brother owns the team he is racing in if I remember correctly.

They started the V8 supercar operations after their ultra successful Audi A4 Quattros were banned from the local 2.0 litre touring car championship. I know they persisted for a little while with a front-drive A4, but it wasn't the same thing.

lol, that was another class but, I missed out on it damn, when was it on? what channel?

[Bo0]

Yeah i missed most of it too, flicked back to it from time to time i was watching the footy, see the Eagles pull off a great win :cool:

Heh, yeah it would have been one of the more humorous ones i have seen, everyone getting the grill in one way or another but yeah some interesting topics put forward.

channel 10 at 2pm AEST today (Sunday)

Chris - I dont know too much about the BJR arrangements but I think Brad is the team owner and driver, but brother Kim Jones is the team manager.

Brad said that quite obviously one day the time will come to step aside, he is looking more at his personal life ie kids etc, but thats him, and as for John Bowe well if he ever chose to leave thats fine and he wont stop him, but thats if or when, as he's quite happy with their arrangements and personally I think Bowe's happy where he is as well :D

Ingall also commented that BJR (Ozemail racing) is a fairly good team, he reckons second (after SBR of course). As Ingall jokingly said "I remember being behind your cars on a few occasions and thought gee wizz if only they had a driver who put their foot down in that car it could be further up the grid" lol, although the question has to be asked when Ingall is comparing the SBR to BJR cars which SBR car is he comparing, as I remember in V8 Superstars 2 Ingall saying "Gee Jones you fight for 14th spot as if its 1st spot on the last lap of Bathurst"

All fun and games :)
