BATHURST 1000

Recommended Posts

sh*t yea! Bathurst 1000 this Sunday. I'm looking forward to being extremeley hung over and lying on the couch working my way through a bucket of K-fry and ripping the skin of a slab of XXXX.

The TAB has Ford as the favourite, paying $1.60 for the win (Holden paying $2.20).

Looks like the Skaife/Murph combo has a good chance for the win.

Hanging out for this one. Lowndes/Whincup are red hot favourites!

Fingers crossed for Murph/Skaife combo to preform.

Hard to look past the Triple 8 entry to win - reliable and quick. Murph and Skaife will be quick and competitive for a while but I don't think they have the right temperament to finish the race - there will be a red mist somewhere along the track!!

Remember Murph got right up there last year in the last 5 laps or so. So I think he does have a real chance of winning.

"Murph you have no Fuel left"

"SHUT UP AND LET ME DRIVE"

There are a few more rules than that! Me and my mates played last year. Based our rules around theirs but made it a little more intense haha. Can't remember them tho.

I think these guys are in with a big chance

Richo is always quick at Bathurst and McConville is not too shabby either, I just hope their luck changes for the better.

I am going to put a lazy $10 on them

I kinda lost interest when the Australians threw their toys out of the cot and banned any real competition, ie: Seirra Cosworths, Skylines, M3s.

I have 3 parties in a row this weekend

Saturday - been invited to a dress up like a bogan party ... should be damn easy to find a costume LOL

Sunday - my mate has a 160inch projection screen ... so we go to his place every year for his Bathurst party ... which consists of some very heavy drinking ... he's really big on making people have lots of shots, especially really expensive tequilla

Monday - my mate's bday, so he's having a party ... yep on monday

I wrote an extensive set of rules last year, have mis-placed the list.

but, things like

1 drink per lap.

1 drink per overtake.

3 drinks per each pit stop where something goes wrong.

1 drink each time these words are said: 'delaminating', 'sensational', 'fans', 'incident' and 'the lap' (in reference to Murphys 2:06.8 lap in '03) (add more words depending on how keen you are to drink, I'd add 10 more hahaha)

1 half beer per written off car.

1 complete beer, shotgunned, per Roo incident, and whenever a commentator cracks a high in his voice.

Some ideas to get you started :D

I really liked it when Jimmy won with the Skyline "Godzilla" and the crowd booed him on the podium.. on international TV he called them all Aussie wankers (edit: arseholes). I think it was on Utube... anyone got the link ?

LMFAO i was there that year, was living in Brisbane at the time. After the race when we got home a mate of mine made up some singlets with screenprinting on them saying: I'm an a**hole (front) Jimmy Richards said so (back)

Still got it somewhere, will have to see if i can find it lol.

I find it hard to get excited over a catagory of racing that uses prehestoric engineering on thier cars... OHV engines and live rear axles.. And when they let the jappas have a go they kicked them out because they were winning too much. I lol at the aussie comentators when they use big words when describing things like "tyre degredation"
