Seems a good mid-race question to raise–
Is there a better “streets won’t forget” driver of the past decade than Jordan Cox and his Civic?

is Jordan Cox the most 'streets won't forget' driver of the last decade
because I feel like *everyone* knows who he is because of those clips, which considering where he's actually raced is pretty incredible

If you asked me 3 hours ago if an American car would lead Bathurst on its debut, I’d say the Mustang might have a chance given its starting position and lineup
Well, an American car does lead on its debut at Bathurst

Dad and I have been scheming to try to get to Le Mans next year for the first time
But every passing minute of the 12h makes me ponder if we should consider the journey down under instead

Very un-WRT like decision to keep a damaged car on-track.
Were they hoping that it would just not continue to come apart?

‘Wildlife’ is in fact another way to talk about the first time through Hell Corner at the start of the race
Apparently a separate wildlife incident, which happened before the Mustang’s

Interesting to hear that the Grove Racing issue with the tire coming off yesterday yesterday was a result of the differences between how Supercars & GT3 tires are bolted on leading to a “false seating” of the tire by the crewman.
