this is true although i don't know why as ford are undeniably better cars.

 

up until the VE, holden never even made their own commodore, it was cut and shut re-badged opels with an american dinosaur engine.

taking large heavy cars and putting the biggest heaviest engine you can possibly find in them is not exactly good design philosophy.

 

at least ford can keep with the times and upgrade to over head cams.

 

ford also have the legendary mk1 and 2 escorts and the mk1 cortina.

Holden (OR GM) never had anything in their league.

Right on brother!

When you see a ford, you know its a ford, and not a opel/buick/chev/vauxhall hybrid (inbred!)

Because Ford dropped their 888 sponsorship and Holden is happy to have them in their camp. Motor racing is expensive. Even for our premier class. Factory backing goes a long way...... just as the ARC guys! :jamie:

If there is one thing I have learned about Terry is never doubt him.

 

Wasn't doubtin him, just wanted to know how he found out. Being a Ford man it's sad to see Lowndes and Whincup going to Holden. But the V8 supercars isn't about red vs blue anymore. It's all about the drivers. Did everyone notice that at Bathurst on the weekend they had the names of the drivers scrolling across the bottom of the screen and not whether they are Ford or Holden. Just goes to show that what brand they drive doesn't concern them. It's about time Holden won something anyway :jamie:
