Bottom post of the previous page:

2 hours plus in and the Lynton/ Leahey BMW is doing it easy, with over a lap in hand over second. 2nd to 9th is quite a battle though.

Whoops the Cox Lancer just spun coming out of the Dipper and almost caused a pileup, they're back to 7th now.

I dont understand why the leading car has an extra pit stop, but with a 90 second minimum it will act as a great equaliser to 1st and 2nd, if they are both running well come the end. Right now the Sherrin car in 2nd is right behind the Linton/ Leahey car and trying to unlap himself to be on the same lap.

The extra pit stop was already completed under safety car, and it doesn't matter now anyway because the other leading cars had to pit an extra time due to a pit lane penalty.

The ugly BMW was mowing the grass down Conrod and now he's beached it into the sand entering the pits. Good work.

The Falcon just blew its guts out. That's a shame.

Actually it's not a shame because they've been proceeded to continue all the way around the track spewing oil everywhere.

The 6 Hour is about 3/4 done. Lynton/Leahey lead by almost two minutes over the Sherrins, they both have two stops to do. Car #40 (the Jordan Cox Lancer) is third, and while they're almost two laps down they only have to do one more stop and with each compulsory stop being required to last at least 90 seconds that could bring them back into it somewhat although in a head to head battle with the BMWs it will be hard for the Lancer to win.

#23 and #40 are both into the pits again. The #40 is pushing it a bit in terms of being able to make it to the end without pitting again.

Oh no, the Cox car is in the garage and has the bonnet up. Looks like it's got a turbo issue.

Sherrins pit again, they've still got one stop to go. Gap still about two minutes.
