Bottom post of the previous page:

Whincup is being screamed at by his engineer to save fuel. Whincup is still running flat out.

LOL Morris first raced here in 1991.... Mostert wasnt even Born then.

Started dead last and Morris buried it in the wall...... and still they win.

A classic race. I cannot remember the last time a race had me on the edge of my seat like that. Insane.

Great job by Mostert, Morris and the Ford team, and also a great job by the Nissan boys to get a second after all their problems.

They made thirteen pitstops. Moffat's car crashed twice. What a crazy, crazy race.

It was a real classic. As good a race as anything I have watched.

Got to laugh at the podium. Morris is double anyone elses age and three times the size.

I feel sorry for Shane Van Giz / VIP, and also McLaughlan, Premat Garry Rogers & Volvo. Plus Lowndes who wasnt at fault.... Frosty made the mistake, went wide and spun the wheels and Lowndes was so close he couldn't NOT tag Winterbottom.

Crazy race, sad that no other race today will come close for entertainment value.

I see Skippy made his annual suicide pilgrimage too.
I am very sorry if you find my posts long and boring, I like to type and often go off on a tangent.

That was one of the greatest races I've ever seen. Spectacular all the way through, it doesn't get much better than this.

Yea, I'm not usually one to sit thru enduros but I always make an exception for Bathurst because it delivers just in terms of pure spectacle every time, let alone the added bonus of a good race.
