Bathurst 09

[seangti]

bring back the old ATCC, with more than 2 manufacturers please

(yeah right)

Amen to that. Even the old school Biante series is great fun to watch. Can't go past the little aussie supercars for entertainment.

One HD has the DTM on friday nights which I've been very underwhelmed with. Seen some of the european touring car championship, fair mix of good driving with some heart on the sleeve silly moves to keep it interesting.

I caught some BTCC the other day and those bmw 320's look sweet

BTCC = smash up derby on track instead of arena

The BTCC is great, I remember some of the drivers coming over for Bathurst and all the Aussie drivers having a whinge that they were barging and shoving, bunch of pansies.

I watched a bit of it, does nothing for me. The GT race was more exciting.

I watched every minute of it and was never bored. But I love V8 Supercars and motorsport more than most (also didn't miss one lap of One's Le Mans coverage in June...).

The GT race was great, that Aston was amazing. Great to see Wall hang on to the c'ship lead despite carrying an anvil's worth of success ballast.

If you want variety check out the Bathurst 12hr... Classes for everything and a good mix of cars that are relatively affordable. Classy drivers too, Seton, Bargs, Holdsworth, McConville etc usually turn up.

Great cars too, 135i, 335i, STI, Evo, GTS, F6, GTP, XR6, Alfas etc etc. Even Hyundai... but no VWs yet (even though GTI, R32 and Golf.:R are eligible...)
