How was Luffy's escape down the esses. Just how I drive in the Pac Fair car park.

His save was nearly as good as him slipping in a sponsor plug about needing a new pair of Tradie underpants.

They've done with the proportions, looks really good. Was a little worried it would end up similar to the first Mustang.

Yeah, it looks fantastic. I think someone here mentioned it looked a bit like the FT-1 concept, cool to hear that design callback confirmed.

 

[Spacegoat]

I was expecting it to look real weird with it having to be stretched out in the middle to fit the Gen3 roll cage. But the proportions actually look nice. Still not a huge fan of the FT-1 style front though.

The longer wheelbase makes a good case for a “2+2” road car. However,… with that wing it looks like the dragster of the entrants. I’ll see it at Albert Park in 2026. Me and the Fam already planning a return to the GP. Should be good.

A couple of heavy hits for Reynolds and Davison in qualifying. I wonder if that’s both of those cars out for the weekend.

Edit: just remembered it’s only Friday lol, I think we’ll see them both for the race.

 

[LumpiestFish]

I think Davison’s car might be okay, really unsure about Reynolds though.

We hadn’t seen a front end hit that heavy in Gen 3 until now it’s so hard to know how easily they are to rebuild.

The cut to Davidson's crash after Feeny's improved lap (in P3) was nearly instantaneous when it was live

Remarkable job on #17! I bet both drivers are pretty sore today though. Hopefully Dave Reynolds will be back out there too.

Also, great sportsmanship shown by Nick Percat.

I think it’s cool the cars are a couple seconds slower than Gen2. Seems the drivers have to drive the car more than before.

Both cars will make practice today. Awesome job by both teams.

Agreed, I don't think it matters in the slightest that the Super 2 cars are faster. You can really tell that the Supercars main game guys are putting it all on the line by the car movement that they're right on the edge.

The downscaling we're seeing in most motorsports in terms of cars is a huge plus and got more interesting racing out of it. The problem with Gen3 was always more the execution, the idea is quite solid.

Predictions for the race people? Had the #19 as a my favorite for the race all weekend until the shootout. Might have to go with the #1 now. Think its going to be hard to beat those two either way.

Attempting to watch the event on 7+. Starting now.

Edit: My first complaint with the 7 coverage. Stubbsy says you can make a case for at least six cars that will get the win today. Well, why not say all cars have a chance to win today? Limiting the potential of race participants already.

Aaron Noonan is always the saving grace for 7 coverage.
