The V8 Supercars season ended with Ford (Will Davison) taking the last checkered flag in the era of Ford and Holden (Chevy). Jamie Whincup took the crown before this last race, so he simply received his trophy. When I speak of the era of Ford vs. Holden ending, I'm talking about the future of V8 Supercars. Two new entrants are on horizon. Mercedes Benz is bringing a V8-powered E-Class to the party, and Nissan is bringing a V8-powered Altima. Not sure why Nissan didn't use the Maxima (remember the four-door sports car campaigns?), but it probably has to do with the performance benefit of a relatively smaller chassis. There are a bunch of new re-aired touring car and GT1 races, per usual, but new motorsport events have come to an end until 2013. Goodwood specials on Friday are solid replays and new Chasing Classic Cars next week. Enjoy your weekends, and don't rage on anyone while trying to get your holiday shopping done.
