Bathurst 1000 2008

Bathurst 2008 was a very cool race held in Australia. Bathurst is a race were different brands of cars race to see whos the fastest. This race went on for 5 hours and the dricvers had to do about 161 laps of a course. Bathurst is sort of big in my family because my grandad use to work for honda. Also my uncle went to the race live. I watched the qualifying and top ten shootout and a bit of the final race. New Zealand was very lucky to have great racers like Greg Murphy as one of New Zealands drivers. He came 2nd with Jason Richards. Supercheap auto is their main sponsor.

Do you know anything else about Bathurst?

What a great post about Bathurst! Very informative and concise. I enjoyed watching the race yesterday also. I wasn't sure if Greg Murphy was going to make it across the line as his pit crew kept coming on the radio to tell him that he was running out of fuel. It was such a shame for Tander that he did all that work to get Poll Position and then stalled it on the start line. It is sad that a 5 second mistake means you lose the race.
