That's about all the information I can give.

Entries for Round 10 of V8 8'n'Pole have to be in by Friday 9:00am local time.
There is a practice on Thursday so you may check the results of that session prior to lodging your entries. Usually someone parks a car in the wall on Thursday so that is the reason for allowing this later entry time.

You may check the Thursday practice results at http://www.v8supercar.com.au

A bit more digging has shown that some of the teams are fielding their main drivers in the same car. Below is a revised entry list.

I will not be covering Bathurst this year

We will see what we can do. I usually get left alone on Bathurst Sunday. Then again, Mrs CM has suggested that I go.

This time tomorrow I will be cutting quick times thru the Dipper in
Therapy. No doubt Rob M of Bathurst Highway Patrol will be anxiously waiting at the bottom of the Mountain with speed camera.
