good to see Terry Wyhoon has a drive in a blue oval, he's a good bloke and a great mechanic, even did the roadworthy when I got my EB
If this race is on TV at all I will watch for sure

The F6 typhoon team hasn't named it's driver line up yet.
I might have to send him an email and say I will drive a stint for a carton of Corona. LOL!!

Holden lied and cheated to get them in last time... it made a mockery of the rules.

I reckon car 98 will be one to look out for, the WRX STi Spec C with Chris Atkinson, Dean Herridge and Cody Crocker.

It's a shame (although not suprising) Ford didn't put together a works team, I reckon the F6 would be hard to catch around the mount.

Then they bent the Nations cup rules to allow them to compete because they didnt fit any other catagory and would have been left as very expensive "white elephants" with no where to race. Now they're just expensive museum pieces.

Remember John Bowes Mustang? QUOTE] & what happened to them, they reckoned they were to quick & knobbled them out of racing , the biggest advantage they had was their handling untill they raised their ride height by 2 inches yet they let that poxy monaro keep cheating thats one of the reasons why the class died. |

I watched those damn monaro's destroy the production car series. The only people deluded enough to think they should have been there were holden fans.
This should be a ripper of a race. Would love to see some more class 7&8 cars out there... keen to see what they can do! |

it: How does a TE50 (falcon I assume) get to enter when they have been out of production for 5 years or so? Does this mean you can enter any "production" car no matter what year? It would be an unfair advantage entering an AU!!
