Anyone else keen to see this get started this weekend?
I'm stoked Rubinho came over, and he seems to be getting to grips with it:
“In the first session the car was definitely taking me around, and in the second session I was taking more control. And the smile comes to my face. It’s a great feeling to be able to conquer the world.”

A big props to GRM for preparing these cars.
Only one retirement, and 8 cars only had their first run on Wednesday. ;)

They sound approximately 1000x better live. Even the TV nowhere near does the sound justice. Even the TCR cars sound heaps better live than on TV.

I reckon the F1 paddock will come out from under its rock when these things line up in Melbourne next year. ;) 8)

Yep, they have a beautifully deep tone.

Even though it's not S5000, I thought I'd share this, one, for the awesome cars and two, to make us old blokes feel a bit better. ;)

Unless you're like me and can't take the forces without getting sick ;) Although, that famous simracer alien guy whatsisname puked his helmet full in the middle of a formula session as well. So there's that.

Ken has the advantage of being in a race car for 58 consecutive years.
Surely you'd get used to it by then. 8)
