Am watching it now as I type this on an ad break hehe.  Alex Tagliani is racing in it!  I wish more drivers from other countries would race at Bathhurst.  I'd love to see a F1 car do a demo around the course.  It's pretty prehistoric though with the concrete barriers and narrow track.  It definately is a world class track though in terms of uniqueness and in terms of the spectacle of racing.
"Obviously I am pleased to have many fans. Who would not want? But to be honest, I have no idea why people like me."

"Do you really think I would be here if it was just about money?" Raikkonen hit back.  "I do enough fun things in my spare time than to have to listen to this bullsh*t."

"There is always a lot of talk about the motivation but nobody really knows what I do or what I think except for myself, so I don't really care about what people say."

"There's always talk about my motivation, written by people who don't know me and couldn't have an idea on how strong my motivation is. If I didn't feel I had the motivation, I would stop. My feeling is that I probably drove some of my best races in my last season in Formula One and I was very happy with my performance. I've never had any issues with motivation."

"This year, with BMW, JV's going very well, and I'm pleased for him. Whether or not he'll get a drive next year I don't know, but I hope he does, he's an unusual, and very strong addition to the F1 community. A character." - Sir Frank Williams again on Jacques Villeneuve

I wish Murphy and Ambrose had had a punch up.  It was looking like it was all on, but they just shouted and called each other names.  Hmm, sounds like this place lol hahaha.

As far as what is the fastest touring car series, I'm not sure.  I guess it's a shootout between DTM and V8 Supercars but heck the V8s can do speeds like Nascar cars can and thats around street courses.

With V8s in China and Bahrain, I hope the series really takes off even more on an international level.  It was a good day the other day.  Got to watch Bathhurst and also the epic Japanese GP.

I went to the Australian Indy Race at the Gold Coast a few years back and I rem seeing on the TV that night a reporter interviewing some of the drivers.  They were totally gaga over the V8 cars and had never seen anything like it.  What amazed them was how fast they were going and on a street course.  Obviously they are accustomed to Nascar being that the drivers interviewed were from the US.  So maybe that's says it all really.

Ambrose is off to Nascar next year.  I wonder how he will do.

You're not an example but there are fans who believe otherwise and a lot more of them for Kimi.

Ingall is a tool, Ambrose will still win the title, and I don't care much for him either. I'd want to see Todd Kelly win the title.
