Just wondering who here are V8 Supercar fans and who they go for whether it be Ford or Holden, SBR or HRT, and so

Me im a Ford fan and go for any Ford team but mainly FPR, SBR and DJR

HRT...& I recall the days when I used to go watch the A9X's take on the GT's at Adelaide raceway..

I have been watching Bathurst since 1972..now codies have made my dream of racing at Bathurst a reality even if it is a sim..I can still take a car out for a spin round the famous track whenever I choose..

Jesus Mr_Shmick, you must be old. I have been watching Bathurst since 1977 (showing my own age there, yes, those beautifull A9X's, although that was not a good year for them), and yeah, it's unreal to have a PC game where you can take our V8's around some of our great tracks.

I am a Holden man and follow most Holden teams, probably go for Brighty now he is with Team Brock, a good combination.

I'm with Mickcals I'm a Ford man. Any Ford team can win as far as I'm concerned but SBR seem to be the best Ford team atm but with FPV doing more development I can see the CAT car in particular being a lot more competitive.

It's silly that there are 6 cars under the one banner, or is it 7? HRT, K-MART and TEAM BROCK all under TWR, and not sure bout this or not but i "think" i might have heard that TKR has some relation to TWR as well (this could be not true tho). And it sh|ts me that they are frequently all, or most, in the top ten.

I think once the Ford teams get more of a grip on their new car that they will be a lot more competitive, already at the front they've given Holden a run for their money, yet the front runners in the series are all Holden. Goes with the consistency i was talking about taht Ford need to get a hold of.

I'm a Ford man also!! Unfortunately since I live in the USA, I don't get to see the races until November when NASCAR, CART and IRL are done.

Yeah but at least when you see them you get one each day.

I remember at the end of last year Fox Sports had a V8 Supercars marathon like showing, where they showed four rounds very early in the morning

I like both Ford and Holden but lean more towards Holden a little, well any underdog Holden that is. The only thing I cant stand is HRT. There unlimited budget has there cars that far ahead that nearly any of the V8 drivers could get in the #1 commodore and win, dont get me wrong Scaife is a great driver Brock was a great driver but they have done nothing that any other decent driver could have done if given the same car..............
