As there will be 2 eligibility people on hand to check them out, come the Nationals I'm guessing a few of the current 2B cars will be converted back to legal 2F cars. If not then the 2B races will have a few extra competitors :)

Tonna is not Iezzi! Green and Orange are pretty different one would assume :)

Great footage, well done to all involved :D

Direct link to the speedweek video if anyone is interested: http://www.sbs.com.au/speedweek/watch/v ... 789-Part-5

I thought it was really entertaining. I don't normally get into the v8s etc but this seemed a lot closer and more intense. I guess it helps when everyone is in such a nice car too :)
