Ed., has unlocked the prize cupboard, and this year the most magnificent rewards await those with skill, luck, or both.
Ed., will award a prize to each round winner this year, and there will be a fantastic trophy to the overall winner at seasons end !!!!!

Prize for every round Julian :shock: :shock: You want management to fire me :(

We haven't yet sorted JayVee's prize from last season :oops: :oops: :oops:

But I am sure if we have the numbers, we'll get approval so everyone who visits the V8 Forum, go on and put in your picks.

Julian, I think it would be good to have a post (perhaps sticky) that lists the drivers ?

I'm not too clued up on who the top drivers are, but judging from what everybody else has said, I will make an assumption....

Pole: Ingall

1 ~ Courtney
2 ~ Lowndes
3 ~ Skaife
4 ~ Murphy
5 ~ R Kelly
6 ~ Ingall
7 ~ T Kelly
8 ~ Tander


I'm not sure if I am being crazy with these....I guess I will understand better as the season progresses....
