V8 Supercar discussion thread

[Stang]

Percat, but I think there will be a few heated words about some of the decisions

[St00ge]

what a cluster fuck with the fuel rules, guess no one thought about what happens with a ssuspended time certain race :w:

protests incoming?

[chartreusehj]

worst. race. ever.

[Stalker440]

So the race is shortened due to rain, which is fair enough, but cunts haven't filled up with the mandatory 140l and are penalised as a result.....and about 2/3rds of race actually run... Fuck me dead.....

[chartreusehj]

Did anyone else hear the racial epithet uttered by waleed aly or whoever the fuck he is from that shit show on CH10?

[irsa76]

quite a few teams moving to supershock now, pra,djr and hrt

Interesting DJR moved away from Penske considering they've been using them since at least the EB days, and the Captain now owns the team.

[1uz-zte]

I missed most of the race because of stuff (I mean, Percat won, so obviously something got royally screwed up).

Cliffs?

[Gats]

Yeah wtf happened

[FLI355]

Most ridiculous race ever.

[StupidFlanders]

It rained. A lot.
Some cars crashed.
The race stopped for a piss break.
It rained more.
More cars crashed.
Anybody who didn't empty the entire contents of their fuel rig into the car copped a 30sec penalty at the end of a race shortened because they ran out of time.
Percat used all the fuel and crossed the line first.

Everybody was confused. And wet.

[womblesti]

Why do we need a rule mandating minimum fuel? I assume it's a parity thing, but F1's flow rate method (although equally stupid to me) is a far better way of doing it.

Stupid rule = stupid outcomes

[FLI355]

It was because the nissans and mercs couldn't make the power without using more fuel than the others. They whinged about it and then the rule came in the regardless of whether you need it or not you must put 140l of fuel into the car during the race.

[10sec rx7]

Let's cut the race short but fuck everyone who hasn't filled up... What a fucked race

[BLO 767]

Got that right!

[sirhsv]

The only good thing that came out of the race was a underdog win for LDM. Happy to see Caruso on the podium also.

But yeah the confusion was incredible.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone protested the results of the race. I saw 888 mid race trying to define when the race actually started with the V8SC guys so any things possible.
