  • Australia's Number
    Australia’s Number 1 Shock Absorber, Steering and Suspension Specialists We’re just wrapped up the first chunk of the V8 Supercar season. We all have varying opinions on the umpire calls. The only decision I’ve not For the first time I can recall we’re actually in series recess now until September. backed was the most recent one in relation to the contact between team mates Steven Johnson and James Courtney in Townsville. I know a lot of you have a motor sport passion and therefore you know how much time and effort is invested in racing by those close to the coal-face. Sporting law, rules, should apply no matter what colours you’re wearing. The break is for 2 reasons.
