Australia gets the best Fords, for the most part.

mpr 10-28-2010 07:25 AM

I love watching the Australian V8 series. It's on Speed channel almost everyweekend.

J____ 10-28-2010 09:56 AM

nascar doesnt even compare to this lol. This is racing.

fsy82 10-28-2010 10:22 AM

that was epic racing..they need that kind of racing in the states

ae101 10-28-2010 10:44 AM

it got me off my seat when the holden & ford were duking it out during the straight away & seriously i think aussies make the best gm cars out all

& did anyone catch the subaru legacy in 3rd place, cuz i saw a big ford logo on the back plate

CanadianJoker 10-28-2010 02:27 PM

That is just some awesome racing right there, so close.. Need to watch more of the v8 supercar series..

Edit:
well after watching the video i realized it reminded me of another battle i saw.

Porsche vs Corvette at Mazda Laguna Seca.
this is a truly epic battle between two drivers that get very messy at the end.


knight604 10-28-2010 02:59 PM

i think i'm going to start watching these events now lol

cococly 10-28-2010 05:13 PM

The final 3 laps in the first clip = An entire year of F1 racing

seakrait 10-28-2010 07:22 PM

lol. where have you guys been? v8 supercars has been on speed channel forever!

also, after watching it for awhile, you start wishing there were more makes than ford and holden.

back in the day, BTCC races were awesome with the various makes like Volvo getting in some action with their estate wagons. :)

ATCC races were pretty fun too. i'll upload a vid in a bit. from before most of you were born! damned kids.

jstn86 10-28-2010 07:32 PM

BTCC, DTM, Australian V8 Series... all good car race series!!

I miss the BTCC races, I grew up watching the seasons in the late 90's...I think they do WTCC on and off as well. DTM was on Speed as well.


!Aznboi128 10-28-2010 07:41 PM

I love watching these, and btcc.

seakrait 10-28-2010 07:53 PM

my favourite BTCC racecar was the Ford Mondeo. Always wanted the Ford Contour to do a conversion. :p

that or the volvo. :)

I wanted an Infiniti G20 to convert to a Primera. I would have done the 850 Estate if I found one for a good price. Ehh, might as well get close enough with my Passat.
