    Bathurst 09

    Well, bout to close up here and head home to watch the TV for the arvo/weekend to see what pans out at Bathurst.
    Some customers have given me a bottle of Beam and Jack Daniels so I will have to see who is leading between those teams...
    Be good to see Triple 8 stick it up Ford by winning once more brfore switching to Holden. It would also be good to see an underdog win as well
    To those that watch the V8s, enjoy!!

    Hey George, I have worked like a train this week and no doubt I will cop another load of abuse from customers next week, for not being open this afternoon. Some of my good customers understand my enthusiasm for motor sport.
    Moto is usually the weekend after Bathurst Josh.

    You have to have some simple pleasures Andrew.

    You work hard enough to have a few hours of racing and a few bottles of spirits this weekend!

    Yep, I'm ready for my Bathurst weekend. I make sure my maintenance schedule includes Bathurst each year. That way I get to watch car racing WITH grease and oil under my finger nails and with that good feeling you get after doing these things

    Hi all
    Managed to get home by 1.30 and watch the coverage today.
    It's amazing how close the top 10 cars are in their lap times.
    I see there is something on at 11 am tomorrow before the main telecast with guys like Allan Moffat , **** Johnson and Larry Perkins. Got to admit I've always been a big Larry fan. I am also a Craig Lowndes fan of more recent years. Not really a Holden or Ford follower more the drivers I guess.
    Any way happy veiwing to all.

    Cheers

    Geoff

    Hi all back again.
    I had to laugh when I saw how that last post came out.
    Mr Jonhson's name appears bit to much for the system.
    Didn't realise he was such a rude man that we had to censor him.

    I started work early and caught the end. Sunday I'll be putting the world to rights from early

    The poms are shocked at this...
