The next round at The Bend is rapidly approaching.  Consider roster changes pronto if you wish to do so.

[mikeamerica84]

The window of opportunity to alter your team rosters prior to Tailem Bend has now passed.  We have what we have.  Ain't Care Motorsports made the only changes.

Good luck this round, men.

Congrats to The Arrow Motorsport on their first win of 2023! 

Shogun Autosport podiums in all three races!

Bump and Run Racing has closed the gap quite a bit to our points leader TAA Performance. 

As for the Stewards Summary, the 97 Car was docked 30 team points in Race 3 for the wheel gun still being attached to the RR wheel as the car was exiting the pits.  The V8CFL recognizes this penalty and the points for said car were lowered by 30 markers.  Other than that, all penalties were issued during the races - time penalties.

Next up is Sandown.

Enduro Cup team pairings have been made for our next two rounds - Sandown and Bathurst.

https://www.v8central.com/index.php?topic=417.0

Same pairing formula as used in years past.  Current point standings noted: 1-12, 2-11, 3-10, 4-9, 5-8, 6-7.

Top teams' car for each enduro pairing will be used.  Looks like three Mustangs and three Camaros.

Scoring will be the combined points for each paired teams and then Supercars Points given from there, starting with 300 points to the victors. 

I will detail tiebreakers later.
