V8 Supercars is hands-down the best racing out there. In my opinion, NASCAR's U.S. growth has peaked and is looking to expand it's worldwide market. Why else would they send DW and crew over there and start live flag-to-flag coverage on SPEED? And the 'guest' drivers at Surfer's Paradise...what's better than Boris Said and a bunch of IndyCar/F1/ALMS heroes in 'real' sedans on a street circuit? And that finish at Bathurst reminds me of the early days of televised NASCAR coverage at Daytona. I can't wait for the Austin, TX race and I truly hope that this series triggers a re-birth in U.S. road racing popularity.
