Calling all Married Car Lovers!

Justin Fox February 12th, 2010

We’ve been approached by Southern Star Entertainment Pty Ltd. They are currently casting for outgoing and opinionated married couples to appear on a new show for Channel 7. Created by comedy legend Jerry Seinfeld, ‘The Marriage Ref’ looks at the fun and comedy of married life.

Whether your partner drives a Nissan and you would only ever drive a Honda or your partner accuses your car of being the third wheel, so to speak, in the marriage, then we want to hear from you. It doesn’t matter how small the issue we can help.

If you would like more information please respond to this thread.

RIP Oran Park Raceway 1963-2010

Justin Fox February 5th, 2010

Oran Park Raceway was a motor racing circuit at Narellan in southwestern Sydney, Australia. Recently, the land on which the racetrack is on was sold to the Government of New South Wales for a new housing development. This has lead to closure of the track and will end 47 years of motorsport heritage at the facility.

Nismo has confirmed two teams that will field it’s 600hp GT1 car in this years FIA GT championship series.

The teams are Swiss Racing Team headed by Othmar Welti and British team Sumo Power GT led by James Rumsey. Each team will field two cars a piece which means 4 of the 24 GT1 cars on the grid later in the year will be Nissan GT-Rs.

The first race kicks off in May at Silverstone Circuit. More info on this car here although I personally think it looks much better without all the vinyl here. Video here.
