Malter White Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 I think it's fantastic the great race is coming back in December. Even though I'm not a full on petrol head I love the excitement it brings to Adelaide. Personally I'm looking forward to seeing Icehouse live and Noiseworks. Hopefully my favourite driver, Todd Hazelwood, can get himself on the podium. He's a friend of my son but more importantly his parents are home brewers.https://adelaide500.com.au/?fbclid=IwAR1MWw6AvtSnGB-5e8SAEU_oO5uhcvHf9pzvkv6ZUfr9wFSOMdBh6wiqLqM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozdevil Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 1 thing Adelaide should never have done, is give up on the f1 cars, it was a great street circuit , Albert park is good track , but sadly i think Adelaides street circuit was much better. i also think its a great endurance race for Supercars . i am not a revhead myself, but i like to follow the endurance races of the supercars and f1 . Great to see Adelaide 500 back 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many will brave an hour plus drive each way unless they are diehards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is too far away for me & to make matters worse there's a Pub there, imagine having a few pints & trying to get out of there & down the Freeway to the waiting filth.

Holy hell, when I put my foot on the imaginary brake pedal in the passenger seat, the driver still shifted gears up A very exhilarating experience. I'd love to do that again. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd go for that alone. I haven't seen Ice House live but can vouch for Jimmy and Noiseworks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
