Race 2 started with Jeff Thomas getting a ripper start and seen him self in 5th position by turn 1, Turn 1 the heavens opened up and by the time we all got to the southern loop there was Porsche carnage, the saloon cars were able to all get through except Jeff decided to throw a few 3 sixtys just to let them know he was there, thank goodness no one was hurt in the 944's. Unfortunately the race finished under safty car. Race 3 seen a blinding start from Wade Griffiths in his Ea falcon, only to have a brake issue at honda and forfeit the race. Starting from pit lane was Mark Sutherland, he was on a charge and worked his way up too 3rd after a few battles along the way, 2nd went to Adam Lowndes after a successful race weekend, 1st place was Trav Lindorff. 4th Nash Harris 5th Martin Allan 6th Jeff Thomas 7th Kerran Pridmore 8th Glenn Campbell Dnf Simon Tabinor Dnf Wade Griffiths Overall a fantastic weekend of saloon cars, with plenty interest around the category this weekend im sure next year will be one to remember.

21.01.2022 Hi all, an important update re the upcoming Sandown event. Round 4 on July 25/26 has been cancelled due to the current COVID-19 restrictions still in place in Victoria. I know this will be disappointing to many of you who were looking to go racing again soon. We will now shift our focus to the remaining possible events for 2020. Hopefully by the time we get to September things will be in a better place and we can go racing again.... The committee appreciates everyone's understanding as we work through these difficult times and thanks you for the strong support and encouragement we have received as we do our best to get us back racing.

21.01.2022 All saloon car competitors please note that the proposed round 5 event at Phillip Island at the end of September has been cancelled. See below for the official announcement. Stay safe and we will keep you updates on any opportunities to go racing again this year.

07.01.2022 Day 1 done and dusted What a great feeling to see our much loved Saloon Cars back on track, Holden/Ford at its best. A big thank you to all of you for supporting our Saloon cars through this challenging year.... We hope to be bigger and better in 2021 and this can't happen without your support. Trav Lindorff set the pace in qualifying with Adam Lowndes on his heels, Kerran Pridmore the first of the Au falcon in 3rd place, a very good effort and a congratulations to Kerran on his first run at the island in a saloon car. Race 1 was a somewhat unusual start with a time delay between the 944 Porsche's and the start of the saloon car race 1. Once up and running Trav took the lead and it was on all the way down the grid, Simon Tabinor had his first drive in a saloon car in 5 years, in fact he was fortunate enough to purchase his original National Saloon car from back in the day, and wasn't he on the move..Kerran and Simon put on a show, with Simon eventually getting in front of Kerran to take 2nd followed by Kerran in 3rd. There was action down the field with Jeff Thomas racing to beat his personal best and to see the smile when he achieved that was priceless. We also had two new drivers, Ash Lee, who unfortunately had to forfeit the event, but new comer Wayde Griffiths was going hard out there in his Ea falcon and having a ball. Sunday brings what looks to be a wet start to the day.. 5 laps, start time 9.35am Final 10 laps, start time 2.05pm I wish all the drivers the best for a safe and fun day of racing for our final day of racing. Regards "secretary" Nash Harris #kerranpridmore #Travislindorff #Wadegriffiths #Simontabinor #Jeffthomas #Glenncampbell #Nashharris #Marksutherland #Adamlowndes #Martinallan #vicsalooncars #Bridgestone

Welcome to Saloon cars Matt.. Here are Matts answers First thing that comes to mind 1. Saloon Cars Surprising! Good racing, top folks, better performance than you might imagine, and at a reasonable budget level all things considered. Usually... 2. AU Falcons They must have great personalities, because geez they're ugly. (Actually the best car ever made in Australia, it's just that they look a bit... YOU know.) 3. Traffic Lights Practice, practice, practice! 4. Bathurst The track itself is good, but the thing that really gets me about the place is the aura of it all. There's no one section... it's just the vibe of the thing. 5. You receive a race penalty They must have finally caught me dropping the clutch at the five second board, down there at the back of the grid... 6. No brake pedal Are we in a Group N Falcon? Standard Ops there! No wuckas, brakes will only slow you down anyway. 7. Car won't start on dummy grid It must be Saturday then. Happens all the time, result of DTC (Driver Touched Car). 8. Chequered Flag Invariably want just one more lap to get around that car (maybe two. Ish). 9. Turn 6 Sandown Flat as a pancake in 5th. Y'all pussies! 10. Favourite cartoon character When Bugs Bunny dressed up as a lady bunny - it made me feel kinda funny, like when we had to climb the rope in gym class. 11. First race meeting for the year Opportunity to see whether or not we did a good job hiding that nitrous. 12. Favourite track Phillip Island all day, every day. Fast, flowing, challenging. If I'd been born with the Chin/Cojone package race drivers usually have, I might even be fast there. One day... 13. If you could have any car in the world Already have it - my F-Truck, Billy-Bob. He dooooeeeeeees need a bit o'lovin', though. One day... 14. Opposition Everyone in front of me is clearly cheating! Nah, actually the first person I always have to beat is myself. Getting pretty good at that, now that we mention it. 15. Hyundai ......................................., you wouldn't want your mates to see you in one... Thank you for playing along Matt #Bridgestone #mattjager #fordfalcon #salooncarsaustralia
