After 3 practice sessions in the Main game series RBRA Car 88 of Jamie Whincup and Paul Dumbrell dominated all 3 and on top of the speed charts with DJRTP driver Fabian Coulthard not far behind in practice sessions 1 & 3. Scary moments for Scott Pye and James Golding. Pye spins out of McPhilemy and hits the tyre wall before going through Skyline. Golding gets loose out of Turn 6 and smacks the wall hard on the passenger's side door. Both drivers were ok. Pye's Car slight damage in the back but Golding's car is being fixed before today's 4th and 5th practice sessions as well as a 30 minute Qualifying session determines the Top Ten Shootout on Saturday

Today's activities. The 6th and Final Practice Session has just concluded and Car 55 of Chaz Mostert in the last minute went fastest and 3 fords finished in the Top 10. Neither DJRTP car finished in the top 10. Top 10 Shootout coming up in a couple of hours however there is rain in the area could go in favour of DJRTP.

Top 10 Shootout Pole goes to Car 88. DJRTP cars starts 4th and 9th. Rain didn't post a threat in the Shootout

Today is RACEDAY at Bathurst. Make your predictions. My Prediction to Win is Car 12 of Fabian Coulthard and Luke Youlden to make history for Roger Penske to get his 1st V8 Supercar Win
