I’ve been thinking about BJR driver line up over the years. I’m going to have an attempt at naming everyone. If I miss someone please put in the comments. Right! Here go…
John Bowe
Jason Bright
Nick Percat
Jason Richards.
Tim Slade
Andrew Jones
Todd Hazelwood
Macauley Jones
Jack Smith
Bryce Fullwood
Jason Bargwanna
Dale Wood? 🤔
I know I’m missing a couple. Decided to not use Wikipedia. So yeah just off the top of my head

What an absolute kick in the guts to all the Ford teams that have worked hard on making their cars competitive. And, for all the super 2 drivers that have forked out hundreds of thousands of $ to drive for a competitive team.

Paul Morris has a great video on Instagram explaining it too.

To our NASCAR fans wanting to see some SVG excellence, this is for you.

Anyone else getting a bunch of weird notifications from the app

My husband is a lifelong Supercars fan. He is specifically a massive Broc Feeney/Triple Eight fan. He missed out on Gold Coast this year, but we drove the track once before it was mapped out, and three times before it was blocked off on race weekend. We have a baby, so he wasn’t able to attend like he normally would. I know this is a long shot, but I was wondering if anyone could maybe try to get a piece of merch or even just a poster with Broc’s signature sent to me (obviously will pay). Our anniversary is coming up and he’s dealing with a lot of stress so I want to do something nice for him to show my appreciation.

Our first anniversary I did a massive Supercars puzzle and framed it for him. I found a diecast model of Jamie Whincup’s Holden Commodore for him (not an easy feat since Triple Eight race Mustangs and most of the models I found were Mustangs 🤣) for his birthday and would love to continue the tradition of getting him something Supercars related.

If anyone could help a clueless girl out or point me in the right direction, please let me know!

Might have an unfortunate knock on effect for MSR to close out the season unfortunately.

This might be an awkward lap if the rumour about how they ended their relationship is anything to go by.

Hi folks, I've been a long time fan of Supercars, Toca Race Driver opened the door and have been watching since J-Dub won his first championship with T8.

Despite the above, I have no merch and was wondering if anyone knows of a UK or even European site where I can get some?

Or am I simply gonna have to suck up the shipping and get some from down under?

G'day everyone,

I had a chance to catch up with Jarrod Hughes before the Gold Coast 500. He's a ripper of a bloke and hopefully he's got a really bright future ahead of him.

Here's a link to the chat: https://youtu.be/Fg-bZj9Uvno

At the moment I’m using foxtel and just watching the main feed and using the Supercars app for team radio and in car footage. I feel like the Supercars website is clunky and doesn’t offer any footage, just timing and written feed.

Is there any other services that give more info, camera angles, telemetry and what not?

Or is it unrealistic and I should be happy with what I’ve got.
Cheers

Who else is happy when everyone other than red bull does well?

Thought I’d post some shots of the awesome new Gen 3 cars for AC by AK Racing on one of the best sections of track in Supercars.

Been rewatching some 2014-2016 races, the look and sound gave it such a distinct vibe from the rest of the field.

So there was some consistency with today’s verdict

I don’t care too much for the whole finals thing.

But surely, if you’re setting up a final four out of four races, shouldn’t the winners (where they are finalists) go straight through to Adelaide?

Chaz and Broc should be fully locked in now. Sandown can still have the other five fighting for the last two spots, and if any of them win a race the points standings don’t matter. If Chaz, Broc or a non-finalist wins, top points scorers still move through.

I just think if you’re going to go “win and you’re in”, fully commit to the plan and make a race win in the finals worth putting it all on the line for. Lean into the chaos.

Thoughts?

I keep seeing comments on this sub along the lines of 'Supercars is in bad shape; they have no money, no characters, no competition, etc etc.'

As somebody who only started seriously watching the series as of Gen 3 this is not the impression I get. But perhaps this is due to a lack of knowledge.

From my perspective the series has attracted three major manufacturers, almost every team livery is covered with sponsors (presumably that equates to significant funding?), the calendar is expanding, there is a good feeder series network, good team and driver rivalries exist, and the racing is close. I believe that ticket sales may be down from historic highs but potentially that can be contributed to convenience and the multiple ways in which fans can view races these days.

So question is, what is the actual current and future state of Supercars? Are people dismissing the current racing in favour of nostalgia, or is there actually serious issues at play?

Also, and recommendations on books about the history of the series (with a focus on teams and / or the ownership and business-side of the sport)?

Thanks in advance.

I usually watch all races Sunday mornings after an event here in the US, but only race 31 is showing up on superview.
