When when when is somebody going to bring a couple of V8 Supercars over here.A Commodore or a Falcon or both,I don't care which,blasting up the hill at Goodwood.OK maybe none of the current V8 Supercar drivers and cars could fit in the trip here,but surely there must be some of the older cars e.g. from the 02 series,standing idle down under,and there would be plenty of drivers here to drive them.
V8 Supercars is one of the best forms of motor racing in the world,it knocks BTCC and F1 into a cocked hat for spectacle.
Can't wait for the new season to start.

Hi Rob
thanks for the reply. Didn't know about Garry Rogers and the 7ltr Monaro.Is this the same outfit that are entering the two Monaros in the British GT championship? The idea needs someone of Garry Rogers stature to to push it here.His team is quite prolific in V8 Supercars.Didn't he win Bathurst in '99 with Bargwanna and Tander? While i was in MLb last Feb,i went to Larry Perkins workshop and met the man,unfortunately he was too busy to show me around.I also met Glenn Seton, and Russell(The Enforcer) Ingall,now with SBR.He's got a lot of Euro & GB experience.Check out his web site.I've had a couple of email replies from him,great bloke.Someone else who could help would be TWR as he ran HSV and a couple of other Holden teams.I think ol' TW is keeping a low profile these days.Be great to see V8 Supercars in Brum.Where did you hear that?
Like V8HSV,i'm up the road from you in Waterlooville.I'll stay in touch mate.Is Wayne back from Aus?
Regards,Mick
