this is the best idea to ever come out of australian motorsport.however i am very disapointed it was not promoted better because i only found out this even happened today when someone told me.highly disapointed i missed this.this is a once in a lifetime thing that combines everything great about australian motor racing.Great event just disapointed i missed it.craig lownes is the perfect person to represent australian motorsport and australia in general.every time i see him he is smiling.
Great to hear Nat Col and the Kings getting some airplay there in the background. They are a brilliant band, and Breaking Out at the start worked perfect too!
@DaddyFabalus With drivers like Barrichello, Buemi and Kubica (before the accident) already in F1 I doubt you can say that Craig Lowndes is too ugly for it
@SneffySneff You realise they drive nothing like a road car right? But I agree on the fact it was great to see an F1 car fly around the Mountain. I am suprised they race in Melbourne rather than Bathurst to be honest
I never thought an F1 car could get around Bathurst simply becoz of the condition of the track and the way F1 cars are so fragile. But, I'm glad to say, I was wrong! It would be great to see the F1 at Bathurst, but the logistics of it make that almost prohibitive. For 1, Bathurst doesn't have an international airport or facilities. V8's work there becoz we don't get thousands of overseas media and millionaire spectators going to it: F1 does.
@s2000r1titan plus I picked up that the McLaren was rased higher than normal, imagen all of the F1 teams haveing todo that year in and year old, let alone all the driver's haveing to deal with "The Dipper" at the same time.
I've always wanted to see how a F1 car handles some of the Bathurst corners, particularly The Dipper, so was very pleased to find this... but it doesn't show any of the bits I wanted to see! Argh. So frustrating.

Lowndes finally got to drive a V8 that deserves the title ' supercar '. Not just a hotted up taxi for Bogans.
