A Camaro is going to win. They have the luxury of numbers and parity stability. Not to mention Camaro has the legs on the straights. Ford teams are once again chasing a setup that will work. If the engine doesn't detonate, 25 is the only Ford capable of taking it right to the end.

Dam it Albert why do you have to keep bringing me back to reality, cant a man at least dream lol   
 

Just know, I'll take no issue if I'm wrong.

He's going to feel that when the adrenaline wears off.

[AlbertM]

Willy D puts it in the wall at the dipper to end the session.

[AlbertM]

Still stand by my prediction. But it's the first time in over a decade I've seen the GM product right on the edge to pull off a time. The Bowties might actually have to fight for this win.

[SetonFan]

Should be a good shootout - probably the best 6 cars in the field in the top 6

[Sonic]

so how is everyone enjoying Smashurst so far? carnage everywhere you look!

[muz]

As mentioned above, that top group of cars are really the favourites, they all look sharp.

Carnage there is, my friend.  Luckily at Bathurst no matter where you start you have a lot more time to catch up.  Let us just hope everyone can get their car straight.  With an extra day after qually they are going to need it (i.e. 17 & 20 with the latter looking real good before the shunt).

Percat stopped and checked Will.  Did Nick hit anything prior to?

[Trevor]

Both 17 car and Tradie car ready to go. Shell worked to 5.00 am to get Will's car ready

[stevo qld]

I am impressed that Cameron has pole for Super 2 with a time of 2:04.7010

Based on those times, the quickest Super 1 qualifier, Payne, would only be about eighth with 2:05.6452 in a combined session.

It seems to show that the loss of Aero with the new cars makes a real difference.

I am also impressed with the massive rebuilds overnight with 17 and 20 and Super 2 rebuilds with less facilities and, I suspect, a lot of volunteers and part time crew.

[muz]

Brodie was great then. But Stanaway has to be man of the match!

Peter Xiberras must be proud of that.
