V8 Supercars

It has just been announced this morning that Swishy's favourite brand of vehicle VOLVO will join in the 2014 V8 Supercar series races with Garry Rogers Motorsport, running 2 cars. Sounds like we are going global with car brands again. What do you reckon Swishy, you be going to Sandown to watch 'em mate? cya Tim :

OVLOV, is how it should be spelt(going backwards). Still every second truck is made by or owned by OVLOV

I suppose they will as good as the Merc's "all noise and no go". dave

Davey, you can't have been watching the Darwin race, Tim Slade had his Benz up into the top ten. Takes time to get up there. Even the Nissan's are improving. cya Tim

I suppose they have to run Chev motors and Ford diffs?

No actually they run their own brand engine and everyone runs the same trans axle arrangement

(re deadlys all noise and no go coment)
I dont think they have bedford engines have they ?.

I can still remember the old Toyota Celicas' running around Bathurst & winning in their category time after time as well as being up there with the big bangers. So maybe we could start a new class for Bathurst & get a heap of Hyundais & have a king of the hill demo derby. Just a thought & not a real serious one lol

I also remember someone entering a street registered Volvo back in the Group C days one year. Dick Johnson referred to it as 'a block of flats' and a 'mobile chicane'.

they are just takein an aussie tradition and f$%&ed it didnt they try this once before ? its always been Ford / Holden and thats how it should be not haven poop cans getin in the way , and at bathurst are we going to have merc and toyota camps they'll probably be drinkin them fake non alcohol beers and wearing robes and funny hats an playin dooff doof music instead of AC/DC or Cold Chisel / Barnsy thats not AUSSIE and neither is a race that has impostors in it well thats my thoughts take it or leave it eh
