Onya Marcos and the Ford boys !!!
We couldn't have asked for a better start to the season! I can't tell you how good it feels to be flogging Holdens. We've just got to hope Craig, Russell and the other boys continue to improve so they can take the reins once Marcos leaves. Well done again...awesome effort!

Anyone have a copy of the $30,000 1-2-3-4 photo?

red250 · 03-20-2005, 17:23

Just as well as the next 8 places were Holdens
2/10

Still goes to show NOT a lot of depth in the ford camp yet
so cant get to cocky now can we !!!!!!!
still dont know why they think Skaiff was the best or Radasich/Wilson coming from 31st /27th to 3rd /5th when lowndes started from being turned around in first corner that was the best drive of the day by far.
What a great last 10 laps.

It was an awesome start to the race. That move by ingall when he got past lowndes AND skaife in one was nothing short of awesome! He must have been very dirt with himself after that f up he did. Lowndes, what can i say? Absolutely brilliant race, and those last few laps battling against skaife were awesome.

Can't wait for the next race meeting!

If I used your logic, I could say the same thing for the Commodores on Saturday.
I don't think anyone can argue that the Fords (not just SBR) have been a lot more consistent than in the past since mid-way through last season. Look at Bathhurst for example. Sure, they didn't pull the win, but who came 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th?
Lets just support our team at every opportunity.

Yep i have to agree with the bathurst results
and i guess winners are grinners so you take it while you can.
Just so good to see other fords up there as well now.
Just have to keep it up.
I have tipped Lowndes to win the last 2 bathursts and ill do the same again this year any other tippsters game to tip ????
AND i dont mean a Ford or Holden either meaning who not what ???

Yep good start for ford..but what the hell are they doing the nascar bit for(gentleman start your engines)????
Noway v8's will be like nascar so why try to be :(

Hey red250,

I reckon lowndes will be right up there too considering that ellery does really well at bathurst.

I have a feeling that Ambrose and Ingall will be in the same car this year. Ambrose desperately wants to win bathurst before he goes to Nascar and will need Ingall's help.

One of those 2 parings would be damn hard to beat.
