I quite like it.

Obviously a few stacks thrown in for 'excitement' factor, but I love how they have included some shots of their fancy footwork on the pedals.

Yeeeeeee Haaaaaa!!!!!

Well put together in my opinion. Gotta be more exciting than nascar

Everytime I see Coulthard's crash at Bathurst I cringe. I notice it's got a little bit of the incident in the video

[TAKEITEZ]

That looks like a killer promo :-)
I hope they get a big turnout. That track is a ripper too!

[AllWheelSlide]

Well put together. Hope it works for them!

[Woodchukka]

Good luck to the V8 category going over there. Hope it works out well.

I wonder if any of the Commodores will wear Chevy badges just for this event?

I reckon it would be a missed opportunity if they did not. As a team owner I would make Pontiac/chev/Buick pay just like any other entity that wants exposure on the cars. It must be a significant cost to go there, should be able to get something back for it, after all the whole point of going there is to access the US market.

Hopefully it goes well, it would have to be better than the middle East rounds.

It's funny how when watching that promo, that the Aussie accent's seem so much more fake for some reason. No idea why. :P

Those crashes are nothing on the pile-ups that the yanks seem to be able to put together

Sounds like middle east law enforcement might be more lenient than good ol' Texas

Whincup's engineer Mark Dutton arrested for J-walking, and BJR #2 mechanic Adam Fisher in a bit of trouble after being arrested for public intoxication and resisting arrest (spent most of yesterday in the cells).

And I thought the cops were harsh in Victoria, but when VicPol caught me J-walking on Chapel St I was let off with a warning (they fired a warning shot over my head).

Meh, they're just supporting the stereotype a lot of countries hold regarding Australians - drunken louts Hopefully that's all as severe as it gets.
