Go Lowdnes,is he on his way back to the top?Do we think he can knock of Ambrose,Iam hoping he does what do you reckon?JVLRacing馃榾

Flying VW 路

He is the man..

When he was with F.P.R they were having trouble with there left over Pommy made engines.

(that's what his Boss at F.P.R told me.)

But now Craig is with 888 look out SKAITH..

Lowdnes is a nice Bloke I've met him heaps of times, he wrote his name on the Dash of my XR8 once.

I also think Ambrose got shafted by the Officials.

Bloody roundy-roundies. Can hear them from my place.

I don't mind hearing the drags from home but those dizy folk make a horrible noise.

Why not?

It's healthy to look outside the circle.

Plus try having a wife and Baby in a Beetle.

Alex Holzl 路

haha at least ford circles the problem!

Craig Lowndes is HOT !

He could be racing a Hyundai and I would still want him to win !

yeah i heard the problems with the pommy built engines was they had no low down torque, it was all top end power, so they had to rev the $#!t out of it to get decent power. not good for launches, not good for corner exits, not good for engine reliability.

I would be very HAPPY to help him with that !!! and would be even more happy to help with alternate waxing ...... OOOPS not in BA anymore !

Adam_C 路

Its usually only cycling that waxed legs are common..... :P

mscabrio 路

All over waxing surely would help him get into that tight little racing suit ?

^^shock*

i never thought anyone could turn a v8 supercars thread into this..

when did ford or holden last sell a pushrod v8 under 5 litres
with a live rear axle ? not in the vy or ba I'd bet
at least they still have similar outer body panels

racing no longer improves road cars
the yobbos didnt like being beaten at bathurst by 2.5 litre japanese cars that could pass rego with a new set of tyres
the skylines still had factory air and power windows, why carry dead weight when they handicap you?

Too right! Bring back Group A so that everyone can have a go. Hmm....a W8 Passat beating some Holdens and Fords would be nice to see.....

Go Lowndesy Go!

But when the engine man at stone brothers goes to holden, theres nothing but red lions everywhere. I love wathing the V8's but dont have anyone in particular id like to win. So long as it isnt mark skaife, jason bright or paul morris nor a one horse race. I think there are some really talentless people playing the game these days. rick kelly (sometimes todd) paul morris, steven ellery.... and david besnard isnt driving as well as his record suggests he should.

steve johnson is a good guy too. worked in the pit next door to dick in 1994 12 hr. We had a few.... ok had a shitload of drinks at the leagues club afterwards. skaife on the other hand..... is a tosser.
