at the end of the day consistency rules and not consistently crashing

I tried watching the telecast last night but slept through most of it....that track is sooo boring Nice track and awesome facilities but there's not much to it. Kind of like watching cars race on a motorrway.

Or maybe it was that fact that 888 was out and 88 was as good as out that I gave up

I wonder how much Holden paid Fatguts Morris to take the two Vodafone cars out????

Don't think it was intentional Clarke - the f*ckwit just simply can't drive!

Here's the Championship standings after Bahrain

Go Lowndesy!!!!!

DONATIONS PLEASE!

Urgent : We need some funds to pay team BOC !!

To take out Tander at Symmons (the car that is)

The holden boys seem to be taking care of that already - must think they're driving dodgem cars or something

Any excitement in race three? The eyelids weren't prepared to stay open for it

God, aint that the truth.....when was the last time he actually did anything???
Hes only on the grid cause of his old mans money....and doesnt really seem to give a s**t about anyone else.
Look at Todd Kelly.....gives him a squeeze and Morris just drives back onto the track and deliberately rams him...WTF
Three...or was it four...black flag drive throughs at Bathurst and another with a 15sec penalty at Bahrain......gotta tell you something eh'

Paul Morris is the biggest tool to ever drive a car.
I have never seen anyone drive with such a blatant disregard for anyones safety.
I am not suprised he was voted as the series' worst driver. There would be a massive distance to 2nd, and that would be pRick Kelly

Well said ...

Race 3 wasn't too bad - at least there was a ford 'championship possible' driver in the mix this time. Only pain was that Tander kept making up positions.

I went out and bought a DVD recorder especially for this weekend because I new I wouldn't be able to stay awake for all the races.

Horrible result for Whincup - 0 points for the event

Exactly...
He hit Todd Kelly days of thunder style! Clearly just lined him up! I'm amazed they didn't can him from the race all together.
