yeah love the V8 Brutes, great racing
i dont see problems with control parts on the cars cause then it comes back to driver ability some of the best racing i have seen has been Formula Ford, Formula V, the HQ's, Commodore cup, all basicaly the same car, same power

nothing compares to the days of old though Group C will always be my fav, GM, Ford, BMW, Nissan, Mazda, Toyota, etc. Made it interesting getting the big fast cars past the slower traffic, now it seems you get a black flag if the guy behind doesnt have the ability to get past you

Have heard that Toyota will be joining in the fun with the V8 series so then there will be 3 brands at least, not that they resemble anything on the roads except for the shape

Not really that much different to MotoGP then, is it?

They did have plans, but they've ditched the idea.

They already have the new Charger out in the US with a 3.5V6, 5.7 and 6.1 V8s and i would say these will be out soon in Australia.
The WPS team want to run these cars but as usual they are having trouble convincing TEGA that its a good idea. Seems some people would prefer to have the most stagnant and boring touring car series in the world.

Stay on the gas...maybe you'll save it, maybe you won't, but at least it will end the suspense....
