But other than that I have seen every car on display in DTP just by cruising about in Richmond, thank you very much for collecting them together and get someone to sing a cover for "fuck you".

OH FUCK YOU OH OH OOOOH~

That is just some awesome racing right there, so close.. Need to watch more of the v8 supercar series..

Edit:
well after watching the video i realized it reminded me of another battle i saw.

Porsche vs Corvette at Mazda Laguna Seca.
this is a truly epic battle between two drivers that get very messy at the end.

lol. where have you guys been? v8 supercars has been on speed channel forever!

also, after watching it for awhile, you start wishing there were more makes than ford and holden.

back in the day, BTCC races were awesome with the various makes like Volvo getting in some action with their estate wagons.

ATCC races were pretty fun too. i'll upload a vid in a bit. from before most of you were born! damned kids.

I miss the BTCC races, I grew up watching the seasons in the late 90's...I think they do WTCC on and off as well. DTM was on Speed as well.

I wanted an Infiniti G20 to convert to a Primera. I would have done the 850 Estate if I found one for a good price. Ehh, might as well get close enough with my Passat.
