I've lost interest to the point where I might watch Bathurst if I've got nothing better to do. The series has lost such relevance to me that I haven't watched one race this year, and only a handful of races the previous couple of years. Holden won't sell one more Commodore if they win Bathurst, (which was the intention of the race in the first place). They won it last year and here they are 12 months later with their worst sales month since 1948. You can't even buy a new V8 Commodore anymore FFS. People want SUV's and trucks these days. The race itself is still watchable, but a must only for the sport's enthusiasts.I haven’t paid any attention to Supercars this year but I always watch Bathurst.
Will a Mustang win? Will a real mustang invade the course?

I like it when they go fast.I like the crashes
26, actually. I think most people feel the same about Bathurst these days. A spectacle that means not much once the race is done and dusted. If they wanted to take this race back to it's origins there would be SUV's, small medium and large road cars entered in their respective categories like you mentioned.I used to like the old Bathurst race when they had all the categories on the track at once. This race seems strange when there will only be 20 cars on the track.
Actually, being a passenger around Bathurst in a Supercar for a couple of laps would be very exciting.I like it when they go fast.
Agreed that it’s not quite what it once was but still every year they race and race and those final 10 laps come up and there’s still always the potential for drama. It’s that more than anything that draws people in, to race so long and still have the potential for it to f**k up on the last corner26, actually.

No issues with this, just saying it's got nothing to do with its original intention these days. That could also be said about the Supercars series as a whole. NRL and Supercars actually try to control their respective sport in similar ways. Salary cap and parity. Neither have been successful at it as most fans see the same teams in both sports dominated by mega teams with others making up the numbers.Agreed that it’s not quite what it once was but still every year they race and race and those final 10 laps come up and there’s still always the potential for drama.
