   So does anyone else watch this?? Talking about Bathurst, I love it and watch most of the days race. Big Holden fan here and so hoping they can win it this year (and not to impressed with Greg Murphy and what happened at the shot out). |

   Murph didn't get to the pit exit when he was supposed to, or something, so his time from the shootout was disallowed.
 The TV is set up now LOL
 ETA: DH is extremely happy that they aren't switching it to C4 for the end like they do most Sundays...we don't get C4

   Not sure what chance they have of growing up as girly girls....motor racing on TV every weekend and speedway meetings for 6 months of the year....
 The commentary has started between DH and FIL about what hasn't been done right, whether it was a safe exit from pit lane etc.  LOL
