Better update it to 6TIME bathurst champion. Comes out of retirement to beat all others. Mark Skaife is a LEGEND and will always be a LEGEND...........
Put simply.....Skaife does hold more records in V8's than others. A lot more than Lowndes. At times he had money behind him, but at other times he didn't (gibson days). Toward the end he tapered off, but he also took on to much at that time (managing team etc). Simple facts, minus the emotion.
Love Skaifey!!! Sorry, have a bit of constructive criticism: Get some less pixelated images and the captions don't do the video much good - probably leave these captions until the end.
I'm a ford man don't like Skaife,he put his hand up when Holden were in trouble because of Walkinshaw going broke now he has been shafted big time by Holden and Walkinshaw .How does that work as Walkinshaw was broke 4 years ago to the tune of ten's of millions ! Holden and Walkinshaw you are asshole's .The Kelly's have seen the light i think there still running.I hope you never win another race HRT.Hey Mark jump the fence and have some fun good luck in the future to you and your family..
now i'm sorry aforda but i'm a Holden man yeah we clash but i still like Frosty and Courtney .. and u got no idea wat u on about .. when Skaife sold the team he would of been in 3.6 mil of debt ... so instead of the money he gave Walkinshaw the team .. now how can u not like Skaife when u just said that he put his hand up when Holden were in trouble .. and walkinshaw isn't in 10s of millions of debt u idiot where the hell did u get that from, and ur a cock for saying HRT should never win a race
fuck you got that shit right he got roally shafted for looking after the facorty and that fat shit walkinshit that pommy cunt was a bankrupt turd and left skaife with nothing hope he tops himself shit thing he is.
Boo hoo hoo this is sooo SAAAAD!!! Ok ok ok seriously being a Ford man like myself, yeah gotta say he's awrite. Did well for the last 21 years but still reckon he is retiring a few years too early. He is still that good, but not his racing results for last few years. Onya Skaifie, you're one of the great ones of Aussie tin-top scene. Enjoy your next chapter...and now...GOOOO LOOOWSNEY for 2009!!
Yeah true, Jamie is incredibly quick round by round which really surprised me, but I'm sure a few others will keep him toey next year and beyond. Tander, Lowndes, Frosty & S.Richards immediately come to mind for sure. Dunno bout Murph and the Kelly gang... but one thing for sure Team Vodafone gonna be a hard one to beat. And if he keep his head in, the Kid might match Jamie.... he's hungry for another championship, long overdue I reckon. Man I cant wait for next year...bring it on 2009!!!
Good too see the back of Morris. The most hated driver in history !.
No doubt the regulars will be fighting it out.. Be nice to see a couple of new names pop up and give them all a run :).
I like Wincup nice kid and deserved his championship. Guys like Richo and Rick and point scoring guys.. They pressure everything on the consistent side. Todd, Like to see him in a better ride.
Not you too? Yes, I recalled Morris ruining a few others potential race victory by not pulling aside (about to be lapped). Bathurst 2000 always stick in my mind......could have been Seton year!!!
Oh yeah thats right. I almost forgot about that. Yeah i dont often try to remember anything bout Morris cos I never found him spectacular as some would say. Yeah that was crap thing to say, and on national TV too. Totally unAustralian mate. Well he's gone now so I expect racing would be alot friendly and clean ...well.... okay maybe not?
i'm neither a ford or holden fan, the rivalry in my opinion creates irrational minds...
skaife is a good driver but nothing of a legend, he can't hold a candle to drivers like moffat, johnson, J richards, brock and more recent drivers like lowndes, whincup, tander and ambrose...
skaife dominated an era in which he had the best machinery, best tyres, best engineers and a team entirely focussed on him...
when they brought in project blueprint in 2003, we never heard much of him again...
@FormulaOneFan4Eva your a formula 1 steroid go karting scrub, at least this bloke drivers a real fucking machine, how tired must those poor female formula 1 fingers be pushing those paddles, shows how much u know about the sport not mentioning murphy, your opinion fails just like your name gg.
lol, entire supercar fields are separated by less than a second, V8 supercars would be genuinely easy to drive compared to an F1 car...
oh yeah, and murphy isn't that great either... again, good driver but i would probably put him in the same bracket as skaife - overrated - like steven richards and steven johnson...
and no need to swear and insult people, you know you've already lost the debate when you resort to that...
@FormulaOneFan4Eva I have to say that , at 16, U're really not in a position to be making judgements & assessing drivers. U're just a kid after all. There are many on YT who have forgotten more about racing than U're ever likely to know. ( F1 included ) Of course there are many other older ones who think they talk complete nonsense. And yes, those who are abusive and use bad language just aren't smart enough to know they are just fools.
i don't see my age as a hinderance, i can learn from history and looking back, i see a man who had the best cars, tyres, engineers and the biggest budget with the team wholly focussed on him...
once project blueprint was brought in to even things out and and make it a more DRIVER oriented sport, i see a man who become a pale shadow of his former self - limited to 1 round win per year...
@FormulaOneFan4Eva Of course U don't see Ur age as a hinderance. Everyone thinks they're all grown up at 16 ! U need to think. This video is about Skaife's career. U criticising him because his peformance tapered off ? U don't realise that's norm for all sportsmen ? Are U actually accross his stats at all ? just one thing for instance - U put C.Lowndes above him - Craig's history apart from very early years has him consistently outperformed by his team mates.
rubbish... apart from whincup, lowndes has never been consistently beaten by a team mate... skaife beat him in 2000 but we all know who the team wanted to win, and before that, lowndes had beaten skaife in the previous two years...
so go on then? name me one driver - apart from whincup - who has consistently beaten lowndes?
i can think of three who've done that to skaife; tander, t. kelly and lowndes himself...
@FormulaOneFan4Eva See..you're just showing that you are talking a lot about which you know little. Lowndes was absolutely smashed by his team mate when he went over to compete in europe. For pete's sake either develop some knowledge of racing if you want to talk about it or post about soemthing you do have knowledge on. And what's this knowledge of the HDT's 2000 workings ? ( when you were 6 ? )
look man i am a massive ford supporter and i hate holdens, but skaife didnt deserve to be bankrupted at all, he is a legend of the sport no matter what make he drove and no one should start their retirement like that. I hope he pulls through
yea i mean i dont wanna judge a book by its cover, but that guy never smiles. Also with his formula one team going bankrupt due to dumb business deals, who would want to do business with him? I mean I feel so bad for skaify, i wish i got his autograph before he retired
I'm a skaife fan and i almost cried when Seto missed that Bathurst.. He and his dad crying was very upsetting.. Sometimes we forget they are real people and it's only a sport. But real people have real emotions.
yea hating someone cause of what they drive or what team they are on is like hating someone for being a different race, which is wrong. I mean all drivers and sportsman do have their moments where they make one side of the fence angry, but its a sport, not a war.
I dropped off V8's in 05.. I sat for the first time in years to watch skaife drive those last laps.. Been a long time since i sat down to watch a race..
I dislike the fans more then the cars nowadays.. I was young to once but we all grow up and realize sport is only for fun..
Take someone like Robert Dipiodaminco Cant spell it.. Arsehole on field but off field he was a true gentleman a real nice bloke who got on his hands and knees for people.
Better update it to 6TIME bathurst champion. Comes out of retirement to beat all others. Mark Skaife is a LEGEND and will always be a LEGEND...........

They used the black wheels for most of the year during the ATCC , but swapped to the white wheels for bathurst the same year.
nzkev 2 years ago
the 1990 R32 GTR was a kit car from Nismo. the GTR in 1991 had the black wheels and that paintjob before they had sponsors anything like that

Yes lol. He has no friends at all..
What he said about his co driver at bathurst had to be one of the most cold hearted weak things to say..
And the blocking and rubbing and shooting people off.. No wonder Longhurst gave him a nice one on the pointer lol.
And worst thing is he is pretty slow holding up the field lol.

I don't care what anyone says, Skaife's a legend.
Ford fans hate him, because he made them cry during the VT-VX domination era.
Farewwll Skaifey. You're a bloody legend mate.
38 round wins
5 Championships
5 Bathursts
Can't get much better.
