#1 Murf has pole for Bathurst...

He's a former 1200 SSS owner so he deserves a mention, Greg Murphy has qualified his Holden fastest for tommorrows Bathurst 1000 and set a new lap record doing it...go Murf....I hope the Stone Brothers Falcon goes hard as well.....former 1200 coupe racer Simon Wills is back at 20th spot just 2 sec off pole.

Ahh that was the shootout...2.06.8594 1.96 sec faster than Scaife's pole time last year.

Didn't realise Simon was a 1200 owner as well. Murphs shootout lap was sensational - Converted may not admit to it but I believe he possesses some Murph memorabilia and is secretly a rabid fan.

Simon drove Roycroft's Mongoose car and won the SS2000 championship before moving into open wheelers. As for Murf collectibles I still have my crew shirt from his Pacific days and I still have the slicks off his NZ Grand Prix winning car!! They hold my racecar up !!!

I'll eat my words, Stirlingmac...
Yes I do have some KMart racing memorabilia tucked away...the coffee cup is now quite faded!

For me the ultimate Murphy collectible would be his SSS but, it's owner in the Hawkes Bay knows it's history and Murf has first option to buy it back...It could end up being the only 1200SSS in OZ. Bloody good race wasn't it....

hehe, it was boring, but i was also very peessed off cause while watching the race i took my turbo exhaust manifold off to discover its cracked bout 3/4 of the way around following an old weld

i did want to get it repaired but its past that, i think it may all come out and the old N/A a-15 go back in, im wasting WAY too much money on trying to get this turbo thing happening when in the end im still gonna want a CA

oh, and good on ya shuey, winning the title today and rubens winning the race
