Default Bathurst 1000
Set your DVR, Saturday 7PM on SPEED.

The best, craziest race of the year. If only NASCAR would be like that!

And if its wet on race day, crazy ain't gonna be the half of it! it has been overwhelmingly wet this year and the control tyre supplier only had 600ish tyres in stock (obviously someone wasn't thinking!). They have been rashened to 4 sets per car for practise, qualifying and 1000km race... If it's a wet race, strap yourselves in!

Glad to see it gets a bit of a mention there!
