Yeah - maybe Walkinshaw Andretti should have looked toward him ! If the car could get it done Lee could usually get it done.

[@BRATASAURUS]

im not australian but what has happened to holden is a disgrace i was so pleased to see a holden win the great aussie race bathurst just shows they should be going on

[@SaintKimbo]

@Ronnie Southwell No, Holden was closed because they brought out a girly, modified Opel, that didn't sell, instead of a real Commodore which is what Aussies wanted.

[@TheLoamCourierMTB]

@@SaintKimboAye it was just a rebranded Insignia wasn’t it? I’m currently on holiday in Florida atm and they’ve got a Buick model that’s also just an Insignia shell. So not only has GM committed blasphemy in Aus by rebranding a classic into a modern day PoS, they also done Buick dirty in the US by doing the same thing. On a positive note, I visited a place called Dezzerland in Orlando and they’ve got the genuine article Falcon XB Interceptor that was used in the first 2 Mad Max films there😍

[@SaintKimbo]

@@TheLoamCourierMTB Yes, it was a rebranded Insignia, not a bad car, according to the Car Journalists, but it was front wheel drive, it was 4 cylinder in common form, it was about the same size as a Mazda 6, so it didn't appeal to all the Aussie diehards, who for decades had a, relatively big, 6 or 8 cylinder rear wheel drive, 'mans car', rightly or wrongly, the traditional Holden buyer just didn't like that change of direction and the brand just dwindled and died.. The real problem started way back in the 80's with what was called the 'Button Plan' after the senator John Button who conceived it, It gradually reduced tariffs on imported cars, which was supposed to make the local car makers, Holden, Ford, Toyota, Nissan and Mitsubishi more efficient and competitive on the world market, but it's major flaw was that these Companies were, obviously, foreign owned, and they just didn't care about Australia becoming an exporter of cars, they just bought more cars in from overseas, from their lower cost factories, and, eventually they all closed down. There were other factors, like rising fuel prices reducing the demand for big cars, the higher wages of Australian workers, etc, The Australian car industry couldn't survive without heavy government subsidies and tariffs, and there was a lot of debate about the pros and cons of that, over that period, and the more 'free market' inclined Liberal Government decided that the price was too high to keep them afloat, and started putting the squeeze on, and that was that.

Congratulations to Chaz, Lee & everybody at WAU. They were THE team to beat all week. From practice, to the shootout to the race they were never in doubt. It was incredible to see how long they led over the course of the 161 laps, especially after recovering from Chaz’s puncture early on. Also, #CheersJdub on your fantastic career! Jamie had been an idol of mine since I was young and it is sad to see his era finally come to an end. Bring on 2022.

Glad to see the echidna made it out alright!

[@somethinghandle]

Almost went to bed about 2 hours before this was over. Glad I stayed up. Really thought SVG on fresh tires was going to win it after all those safety cars. SVG trapping Mostert was genius. Brodie nearly taking out multiple cars forcing his way due to just being impatient I thought would get more reactions too.

The saddest part of this great Australian motor race, and it's future, is that we no longer race Australian made cars. The Yanks shut down our manufacturing capability, in order to protect their own. Mustangs and Camaros are NOT what made this race. Never will be the same!
