The h****n teams have demanded an urgent Parity reveiw before Bathurst because they say the Fords have a performance advantage.Even though they are leading the championship they want the aero on the Fords reduced Immediately.

indeed.. whats the bet there will be a few dodgy safety cars called out this year wadesta/LOL.gif

Little Blue ZH- 08-25-2008
What do you mean? Of course Ford has an unfair advantage... We have drivers that know how to f***en drive!

As Foz said, Harden up princess! wadesta/upyou.gif

The latest whinging from the Generals girl scouts


h****n Motorsport Manager Simon McNamara says a parity review announced yesterday will be a waste of time.

The V8 Supercars Australia Board agreed on Friday to initiate a parity review between the VE Crumpledore and BF Falcon and its decision was made public yesterday.

Technical Director Andy Bartley will conduct the investigation, examining all the relevant data of all cars in the 2008 Championship Series.

Bartley is scheduled to report back to the Board before its next meeting on October 22, which is the day before Round 11 of the Championship in Surfers Paradise – and after the two endurance races.

h****n Racing Team’s Mark Skaife requested the parity review after the Queensland Raceway round of the Championship on the basis the Falcon had an aerodynamic advantage over the Crumpledore.

McNamara was critical of the review’s timeframe and of the likelihood that any change on the Falcons – if they are found to have an aerodynamic advantage – will not take place until after the endurance races.

“They’re looking at a review, using the data they have held for a year, which will then be presented at a board meeting at the end of October, when in my opinion you could argue (that) is when the Championship will be over,” he said.

h****n Racing Team’s Garth Tander leads the 2008 Championship by 12 points over Ford Performance Racing’s Mark Winterbottom going into the L&H 500 at Phillip Island, which takes place this weekend.

McNamara said Phillip Island and Bathurst were probably two of the V8 Supercar circuits were aerodynamics is most crucial.

“They’ve tabled that they have an issue and now they have to investigate it, but why did it take so long for them to investigate the data they already had?” he mused.

“You’d think if there was a parity issue you would sort it out before a month and a half.

“It’s like the bank saying it’s going to drop interest rates and not doing it (straight away).

“You wonder whether we’re running in a professional sport or what we’re doing.”

McNamara said h****n would not launch court action or any other external options open to it to speed up the parity review.



These guys have short memories.They had a parity advantage for 3 years when the VT was racing the AU.

Toughen the f*** up ya girls!!!!

Totally agree. Notice how the dark side always has a whinge and asks for a parity review when they are doing crap but you never hear of any blue tems having a spew when holdung are having a good run over us . When will Scaife stop blaming the cars and admit his driving career has hit its peak and he just doesnt have it anymore wadesta/violin.gif

Who cares about Skaife he's a tosser!!!, and his mate Kelly that runs everybody off the track when he cant pass them!!. There just bad sportsmen

foz- 09-11-2008
They are really pushing to get the Fords nobbled before Bathurst.It happened a few years ago when the Fords had a bunch of aero taken off them 2 weeks before Bathurst.Alot of teams threatened to pull out but still went and got flogged.If you change the aero all the track data you have becomes useless.

Now now boys, they are just abit pissy cause they picked the crap car tongue.gif .

WILS_88- 09-11-2008
This is why i refuse to watch this crap anymore.

They have had the VE out for how long? and now they want a parity adjustment to a car that has about 6 months max left to go? Yeah how about no dickheads. If it was tthe FG and it had a massive advantage then maybe but the BF isnt exactly new.

Maybe if Skaife spent more time learning how to drive then acting like a little bitch he might actually win something! Have they forgotten that Tander is leading the championship?

The AU never got what it needed until right at the end by then h****n dominated everything. They always get their way and if by some chance they dont they turn into the biggest pack of moaning girls out there.

HARDEN UP PRINCESS'S!!! wadesta/upyou.gif

Bloody technicalities. Go back to when a bloke got a new falcon, jammed a few more horse power up its a*** and went and flogged the thing around the mountain with all the other blokes in their h****ns. Its all this purpose built shit and control crap that is ruining it. What the Aussie public wants to see is a Ford verse a h****n, Not two stamped out race cars with different stickers on the front. Avseco has ruined the sport. And now seven has its hands on the coverage, its not even worth considering watching (except bathurst). The biante series is more like it. wadesta/buttrock.gif wadesta/thumbsup.gif .

p.s: I think ive ranted about this more than once tongue.gif

foz- 09-11-2008
Your right sarge.The V8's is based on the h****n V Ford rivalry.They seem to of forgotten this and are turning the category into Nascar which won't work in OZ.

Sarge- 09-11-2008
Nascar is a joke. They make it sound so tough and hard to do. All your doing is driving in a circle. But it makes me laugh cause when one crashes, so do the other 30 tongue.gif .
Does anyone get AMC magazine. IF you can get your hands on a July/Aug one, the Editor, Mark Oastler does a really good write up on how he thinks the V8s should be run. Kind of like Group A racing with all different styles of car. Its worth reading if you can.

Little Blue ZH- 09-11-2008
Oh my god!!! Skaife is such a bitch! Someone get that c*** a pacifier for f*** sakes. As Tops said, its time he realised his racing days are over. Besides, all the fun of having him around ended when Ambrose took off. So f*** you Skaife, nobody cares what you think wadesta/upyou.gif .

Yeah the timing of this parity review is, as per usual with h****n, suspect to say the least. They just don't want to be made like the weak-legged under-performing pieces of shit that they are come Bathurst.

Maybe I should go to Bathurst and jump up and down on the spot, stamping my feet like a little schoolgirl, maybe I too can get something changed... Like the track, the date, the climate conditions, the fact that we're racing on fuel instead of air, the sun being too bright, we're still racing on tyres, there's a possibility of racing in space to get the maximum performance out of your car (except they'd have a huge handicap on Ford, can anyone say "NO MOTOR"?). f*** off and grow some balls you weak pricks.

yeh mark oastler needs to get back into reality group A rules wouldnt work nowdays, used to buy AMC but went all f***3d up for awhile so stopped buying it.

what should be done is keep the production based racing as they're not allowed to change anything and next level up have a V8 supercars series based on elements from group C

yeh oldern days racin"
