I am a tad bemused.
Tander is a better driver than Rick Kelly.....(as voted by the V8Supercar Drivers recently)....imho Tander will be a better driver than Rick, even when Rick grows into his socks, Tander has more mech. set up knowledge in the seat of his pants than most, n thanks to his ongoing involvement with single seaters, understands a lot more about how aero affects the whole package...(down to the sump plug, so to speak), than most of his peers, yet people favour Rick.
While not being a great fan of GT, (he whupped me at OP :cry: ) if you get a chance to compare the in-cabin video of him, Frosty, Lowndes,...breathe Skaify, breathe, Ingall, et al, .....the guy is driving a Ferrari down Hollywood Boulevarde, the rest are driving Hillman Imps n trying to dodge a race riot in Brixton :shock:

this is what happens when one knows Jack Schidt about it! :lol:

If I could watch these things I would probably have a very different set of picks :conf3:

Maybe I should consider your viewpoint and change my picks :?: ......Nah, maybe next round.

That was meant for the guys lucky enuff to see in-car camera of the pilots at work..........Tander has an armchair ride......to my ear, Rick has to work the car harder across the apex of the corners,= harder on the rears, Tander cut his racing career on FF, he knows how to flow the thing, not easy in an "Elephant with vertigo n no brakes" :shock:
