Aussy Supercar Racing
One more reminder. If you like racing don't miss the Bathurst Australian super car race coming up Saturday evening 0600 central time on espn. This is one of the best auto racing series going. It's everything NASCRAP should be. This race is even more special though, if you don't know. I think this is autoracings equivalent of the IOM.

To give some perspective, when you are driving this road the third corner called the Cutting is so steep & off camber, that in a road car your tyres are squealing doing 50kmh, almost every corner is blind, so it is a real leap of faith to drive fast.
I never thought of this as the equivalent to IOM, but you are probably spot on, I have grown up with it so it just seemed normal, but it is far from it.

That's why I said ONE MORE! Seriously, this is some of the best racing on the planet but coverage here in the US is weak. I'd really like to see it promoted here more.

It's all good Duckman. I agree this is some of the best caged road racing on the planet. I wish our Crapcar was more like this. I was lucky enough to go 3 Super V8 races down under. It's awesome. Can't wait for the live Bathurst race tomorrow night.

Never heard of this race but you have my attention. I'm going to set it to record on my DVR.
