Wills Windscreen

How did your mate Will get over the shock of his windscreen in race 3. I bet he needed some fresh undies.

I noticed that when hos car stopped, the windscreen wasn’t cracked. How did that work? He broke it on lap 9 (?) then half a dozen laps later it was fixed???

How scary would that have been. I had to laugh at the comment from Matthew White or Cromley with the comment about Will doing the cleanest pass through that chicane all weekend.

Didn’t even notice it had been fixed, though didn’t really take much notice of any of the races(which is not like me at all) Maybe the officials deemed it unsafe?? Though nothing was said about it, was there??

I thought that it was deemed safe because when he came in to the pits he was released. I can remember the same thing happened at bathurst a few years back when the cougar girls were racing. It happened as the car hit the track that was one scary lap of the mount.

Excellent job getting bit back to the pits.

It wouldn’t have been fixed after the incident because it takes a day for the screen to be placed in the car and the glue stuff to dry.

So, I think the races weren’t in the order they should have been in. I think the races weren’t live at all and I just uncovered VESA’s secret!!!!! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA
Anywho, I remember a similar thing happened to Bright at Adelaide last year, he went out, hit the tyres and got red paint on his headlight and guard, the next time we saw him (same lap) it was gone then the next time we saw him (the lap after) it was back again!!

Nah, I made sure when I paused the race on TV to check if it was broken, that it was 18…..
