Holden finishes on top in the V8 Supercars - how sweet!

What a great way to end your weekend, watching Holden come out on top by finishing first in this round of the V8 Supercars held at Darwin in the Skycity Triple Crown at Hidden Valley.

I love few things better than sitting back and watching all the action of the V8s racing. I love it even more when Holden come out on top. It was an exciting finish with the Ford of Alex Davison storming home to finish second to Michael Caruso who won in this his first ever V8 Supercar victory. It is a great result for the team at Garry Rogers Motorsport with Michael Caruso's team mate Lee Holdsworth coming home in 5th position.

It was a great result for Holden with 6 of the top 10 places belonging to teams racing Commodores. The order in which they finished were:

Michael Caruso Commodore
Alex Davison Falcon
Craig Lowndes Falcon

Rick Kelly Commodore
Garth Tander Commodore
Paul Dumbrell Commodore
Lee Holdsworth Commodore
Russell Ingall Commodore

Shane van Gisbergen Falcon
Jamie Whincup Falcon


Another great result for the Holden V8 Supercars - I can't wait for the next round to begin.

Now we just need the Queensland Maroons to come through on Wednesday night by beating NSW Blues and taking a fourth consecutive series victory in State of Origin. Now that would be real sweet. What a pity my son won't be here to watch it with me - he has a school camp to go to. Hopefully he can find a TV somewhere so he can catch some of the action. He will be cheering for his Blues, but I have a feeling the Maroons can do it - sorry mate. Go Queensland!!
