Well done simon, great to hear. Mid North Coast rocks V8 Supercars again. There is a young bloke from Port who is one of the mechanics for SBR.

Well at least for now they are in Fords.
: You must be stoked. All your study and hard work is paying some dividends. Make up your resume to hand to RD whilst you are there. Holden team or not you shouldn't let that stand in your way to a career in V8's if thats what you are looking for. Great stuff and good luck Simon.

Thats great news Simon, I think you would enjoy that more than joining the Police force, and you will be working on normaly aspirated engines with the correct amount of cylinders. ( or maybe just wheel nuts for now
)

Ok Simon, time to fess up, it was you who told Jamie to go hard straight out of the pits on sunday wasn't it. Must have been some rollercoaster ride on the weekend.

Felt sad for a second when lowndse got that penalty after his pitstop, then again when whincup crashed. Then I remembered they were changing to Holden.
Anyway how'd you go Molloy? Enjoy your self? Must have been an awesome experience!!

^^^ That pic is in the Sydney500 thread. As usual there is some conjecture as to weather it was photoshopped.
