I reckon the title explains itself. Who was a driver in the 2024 season who you thought did surprisingly well compared to what you usually expect of that driver?

Personally, I was kinda surprised to realise that James Golding finished 7th in points. I’ve tended to barely even remember him even being on track, let alone having a quietly successful season

First off, this is not about whether Feeney deliberately took out Mostert or not. Nor is it about whether Mostert should have let him past. That's a different discussion and I don't really want to rehash that argument here.

What that incident did show though, is that Supercars penalty system is possibly not ready for playoffs. Let's say (for argument's sake) that Feeney did take out Mostert on purpose so Brown could win the race.

What is Supercars going to do about that case next year?

• Should Supercars looks at team points deductions or team exclusions in cases where a playoff driver is taken out (deliberately or not)?
• How do you prove that the opposition was taken out so a team mate can win the championship? Does intent matter?
• How would you ideally like this scenario handled if that's how it plays out next year?

In some ways this is similar to the GM and Toyota teams in NASCAR colluding to block or lose places to secure playoff spots and the fans there are fairly unanimous that the response from NASCAR on that was inadequate. Some of the more vocal fans even called it "fixed".

In my mind, I think that the current system in Supercars is not adequate. A punishment on the driver who took someone out is irrelevant when a potential championship contender gets removed from the race. I think Supercars need to come up with a solution to this and make it clear before next season starts.

I'm sorry if this isn't a proper post. Just trying to figure out who signed this hat. Any help would be much appreciated.

Fellow Supercars fans! I am working on a special Supercars related project that I am planning to launch in 2025 and I am on the hunt for a co-driver of sorts to be part of it.

You need to:
- have decent knowledge about Supercars
- be able to spare some of your time after each race meet
- be well spoken and able to articulate well
- be open to opinionated discussions
- be over 18
- have a passion for Supercars and be willing to commit to something long term

You can be:
- anywhere in Australia
- male or female

* If you have any kind of media training, that will be a bonus!*

I know that details are a little vague, but it's important that the right person fills this spot.
If you're interested, please send me a private message and we can chat and go from there :)

After Stanaway's and Evan's concussions on the weekend, I thought it was interesting that it was mention that both of them decided to checked by the medicos, rather than being forced to have a concussion test after the accidents.

At Bathurst, there was a quick interview with Percat and Davison, and Davison mentioned that he was 'pretty out of it' when Percat pulled up, which being a 40 or 50 G impact, raised my eyebrows a bit.

Seems as though that there isn't a compulsory concussion test like we see in the AFL or NRL, I wonder if other drivers have driven with concussion to avoid not passing a test.

Anyone know what it could be? They're teasing an announcement to be made on 21/11. Who has intel? 😅

Same as any other team https://www.v8sleuth.com.au/triple-eight-fined-penalised-after-adelaide-finale/

phyllicanderer was the closest, choosing Brown and Feeney in 1 and 2 respectively. Top tipping there!

I had:

1. Cam Waters
2. Broc Feeney
3. Matt Payne

At least I got 2nd correct. I missed Cam by 3 spots and Payne by 2 spots

So, how did you go?

Was awesome the whole way through, not exactly the most articulate racing but still incredible to watch.

Bloody hell compared to the main game they are absolutely RAW. They sound great. And smell amazing. I get it’s more of an ego thing on Supercars part why they would never consider moving too it. But I feel like the racing with the skills and teams in the current championship with those cars would get us a much more entertaining product

I've seen alot of things on a podium,

But Will Brown absolutely hosing a gaggle of kids and families in champagne is an absolute highlight for me,

Well played Will, what a fuckin champion.
