Race Guide
T he V8 Supercars Championship has emerged from its mid-season break and heads to Queensland Raceway this weekend with another new race format up its sleeve
The Saturday action will again feature a 20 minute qualifying session before a pair of 70km lsquosprint racesrsquo are run with just a 15 minute lsquoservicing windowrsquo between them
While the details of how the servicing window will operate are quite complex the number of set-up changes that take place between races looks set to be the most interesting factor
Teams and drivers will not have the luxury of a long debrief before committing to any adjustments and a bold move to a different spring roll-bar or shock absorber setting could transform a carrsquos chances from one race to the next
The format adds another unknown element into what already promises to be an exciting weekend of racing
The relative performance of the visiting Victorians against the local teams is always interesting to watch at Queensland Raceway with Garth Tander having proven particularly strong at the venue last year in his Toll Holden Racing Team entry
TeamVodafone duo Jamie Whincup and Craig Lowndes currently hold a commanding advantage in the championship standings but converting their status as favourites into a pair of race victories will be no easy task
Green means go

QampA with JAMES COURTNEY
Itrsquos been a tumultuous first season at the Toll Holden Racing Team for James Courtney
Having won the 2010 V8 Supercars Championship with Dick Johnson Racing Courtneyrsquos high-profile switch to the factory Holden team garnered much off-season attention which was duly satisfied by a first-up win in Abu Dhabi
Since then however there has been little to write home about for the 31-year-old with a string of on-track clashes resulting in just six top 10 finishes from the first 15 races and a lowly 19th place in the championship standings
Speedcafecomrsquos Grant Rowley spoke to Courtney prior to Queensland Raceway - a vanue which has proven kind to the Gold Coast resident in the past
SPEEDCAFE Queensland Raceway is a track that yoursquove had a lot of success at You won with the Stone Brothers and you dominated last year with Dick Johnson Racing Whatrsquos special about this place for you
JAMES COURTNEY Irsquove managed to win or have a pole position in most years when Irsquove driven there Itrsquos a track that Irsquove had a lot of success at and it has usually been a turning point of my season as well
Irsquom certainly hoping I can continue that trend there
SPEEDCAFE It has been a difficult title defence for you Is this the round where you start to turn it all around
COURTNEY I hope so Wersquove changed quite a few things in the rear of the car The rear wasnrsquot doing what we thought it was and it is all being rectified now
It is good that wersquove had this mid-season break and wersquove been able to have a really good look at it all Wersquore very happy with the finds wersquove made and wersquore quietly confident wersquove found the gains It is definitely going to help us there this weekend
If you look at our results from Townsville in the Sunday race both cars were in the top five until Garthrsquos car had the failure and I had the brain failure The speed was getting there so I think with these couple of little changes wersquore on the right path
SPEEDCAFE You sound optimistic and you do tend to look on the bright side more often than not but has it been frustrating not getting the results you were getting last year
COURTNEY Itrsquos not where I want to be thatrsquos for sure but if I hadnrsquot won the race at the start of the year (at Yas Marina) Irsquod probably be going crazy That result early on keeps me driving for the next one
Now wersquore concentrating on getting the car ready for Bathurst and getting a consistent car and also building towards next year
SPEEDCAFE It sounds very 1980s of you ndash forgetting the championship and building a strong car for Bathurst
COURTNEY The championship done for us really so I just want to get to Bathurst Irsquove been close quite a few times but havenrsquot been able to get it over the line Thatrsquos where our main focus is as well as Homebush
Itrsquos not about collecting championship points for us itrsquos about going out there and getting race wins and building towards next year Therersquos some great news coming up for HRT in the next couple of weeks which both myself Garth and the rest of the team are pretty excited about
SPEEDCAFE Now looking ahead to Queensland Racewayrsquos event therersquos a new Saturday race format What are your thoughts on it
COURTNEY I think itrsquos going to be interesting It will be pretty crazy especially if therersquos a bit of rain I think the format will mix it up
I donrsquot know wersquoll see how it goes but Irsquom happy racing the car more Irsquod rather be there racing it rather than sitting on the sidelines looking at the car I think it will work well for the fans too
SPEEDCAFE Between those two Saturday races is a short 15 minute break ndash like a footy match Do you think you guys should lsquoswap endsrsquo and run the second half in the opposite direction
COURTNEY That would be a cracker Irsquod be up for that No testing just bang straight into it

CIRCUIT INFO
Queensland Raceway was quickly dubbed the lsquoPapercliprsquo because of its basic layout Changing temperatures can make this circuit a nightmare for drivers and engineers as its grip level changes at different times of the day Despite its simple layout it tends to provide entertaining racing with passing chances at turns 1 3 4 and 6 It is also the home test circuit for a large portion of the V8 Supercar Championship field

TECHNICAL by CAMPBELL LITTLE
Queensland Raceway is a significant unknown for the visiting teams this year after the flooding the circuit experienced last summer
Track condition is always the big talking point at Ipswich and the resurfacing planned for the last off-season obviously didnrsquot happened
The track surface has deteriorated a fair bit over the years but wersquove all got to race on the same surface and make the cars handle it the best we can
Itrsquos always a spirited battle between the local and visiting teams at Winton (the Victorian teamsrsquo test track) and Queensland Raceway It would have certainly helped to have spent time at Queensland Raceway recently to get a set-up
Typically we can go back to most race tracks and not have a bad baseline but this time wersquove really just got to see what happens when we get there
The braking areas at Turn 1 and Turn 3 are very high speed and very bumpy so the challenge for the visiting teams is to find a set-up that works in those areas
The cars bottom out in both braking zones with 40mm of travel in the front Midway through Turn 1 the cars virtually fly as they jump across the road on turn-in which makes for pretty spectacular viewing for the fans
The cars can also bottom out at the rear thanks to the exit kerbs particularly at Turn 2 The left-rear can disappear well into the guard if you run wide there and the tyre can cop a bit of damage from that sort of treatment The exit of Turn 3 used to cause some concerns as well before they took the big kerb out of it
Car set-up is always a compromise no matter where you go and here itrsquos a fine balance If you run the cars

Race Guide
too soft you risk them hitting the ground too hard but fixing that with a harder spring creates a lot of understeer in Turn 3 and 6
New format
Having two short races on the Saturday with a 15 minute service interval is something different for all of us V8 Supercars is obviously trying to mix it up and I think theyrsquoll succeed with that
Whenever they bring in something new there are always a lot of questions The pit facilities at Queensland Raceway arenrsquot quite to the level we see at some of the other circuits so itrsquos an interesting choice of location for this format but wersquoll see how it goes
Therersquos been a lot of discussion about how the service window will be policed and controlled Irsquod hate to see someone given a penalty because one guy walks over the wrong line or something stupid like that
Shorter races
Everyone can afford to be a little bit more aggressive on Saturday with the shorter races both in terms of set-
up and the way the cars are driven
The most wersquore doing on a set of four soft tyres is normally around 85km due to the 75 litre fuel tanks By comparison Saturdayrsquos races are 22 laps each which is only 68 or so kilometres
The break between races will be long enough to throw in a new spring or roll bar as well as a new set of tyres so the relative car performances could be quite different depending on how much people learn in the first heat
Saturday will be very straight forward with one tyre set per race but Sunday could be more interesting Last year Queensland Raceway was one of the few tracks where we had people taking two tyres only during a soft tyre pitstop We saw a couple of teams either doing rears only or just the working side in one of their stops so wersquoll see if that is a strategy that will appear again this weekend
The 200km race on Sunday will be very much like Townsville where wersquore all looking at our last fuel window and how a Safety Car might affect that

DID YOU KNOW
Much is made of Winton and Queensland Raceway being the home test track of teams in the V8 Supercars Championship but lsquohomersquo teams in Queensland have never really dominated at Ipswich
In the 26 races held since the first in 1999 Queensland-based teams have won nine races for a success rate of 35
Things have been more even in recent times Since 2001 honours have been split 9-9 between home teams and the lsquoinvadersrsquo from down south Last year James Courtney right won both races to be just thet hird man at Queensland Raceway ndash after Craig Lowndes and Garth Tander ndash to clean sweep the wins on a weekend at the track
Garth Tanderrsquos victory in the Saturday race at the Sucrogen Townsville 400 has taken the Toll Holden Racing Team to the brink of its 200th all-time race win
The team has now won 199 races ndash both in the V8 Supercars Championship and at non-cham-pionship events such as the Australian Grand Prix Gold Coast Indy Sandown 500 Bathurst
1000 (in the years where the endurance races were not part of the championship) and New Zealand Sprints
The Toll HRT has won 168 ATCCV8SC races leaving it well clear of Dick Johnson Racing (80) and Triple Eight Race Engineering (69) Holdenrsquos official factory racing team began in 1990 and celebrated its 21st birthday this year

As was the case last year at Queensland Raceway Dunloprsquos Soft Tyre will be the only tyre in use for qualifying and racing ndash and that should bring a smile to the face of championship leader Jamie Whincup
In the eight all-Soft Tyre races held this year (as opposed to races with a mix of Soft and Hard) Whincup has scored an impressive 130 points more than the next best driver Shane van Gisbergen
Minus a disastrous weekend at Hamilton Whincup has not finished outside the top three in the other six Soft tyre races so far this year
Each driver will have seven sets of new Soft tyres to use for the weekend
The Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series is the main support to the Coates Hire Ipswich 300 and it will see the return of Grant Denyer to the development category
The former series regular last competed in 2009 and will drive a Kelly Racing-run Commodore in his return to the series ndash the same car used by Rick Kelly to win in Hamilton earlier this year Denyer and the winner of the 7mate lsquoShannons Supercar Showdownrsquo program will drive the car under a wildcard entry at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 in October
A total of 28 cars have entered for the fourth round of the Fujitsu Series led by Andrew Thompson who holds a 114-point advantage over Jack Perkins
Jim Beam Racingrsquos Steven Johnson has been enjoying a solid year for the famous Ford team and hersquos proven to be the only man to complete every lap of racing so far this year
The 17 Falcon driver has completed all 869 laps in the 15 championship races held with Craig Lowndes Shane van Gisbergen and Rick Kelly having completed 868
Sitting eighth in the championship Johnson is only 79 points behind fourth-placed Kelly
Queensland Raceway is the site of Johnsonrsquos last race win in the V8 Supercars Championship ndash 10 years ago he teamed with Paul Radisich to win the 500-kilometre endurance race held at the venue

Brisbane is a fantastic city and really isnrsquot all that far from Queens-land Raceway making it the perfect place to stay during the event The city has plenty of great res-taurants along the river and throughout the CBD The river winds its way through town creating a great atmosphere and viewing areas and two world class sporting facilities mean there is always something on
CRAIG ON BRISBANE CRAIG ON PERTHCRAIG ON QUEENSLAND RACEWAY
Queensland Raceway does tend to get a bad rap but really itrsquos a great circuit for spectators The lack of elevation means that fans can see all the action from almost anywhere From a driverrsquos perspective itrsquos a challenging circuit because itrsquos actu-ally very difficult to pass on While it looks simple on paper itrsquos very difficult to complete a quick lap due in part to the bumpy surface that has developed over the years

Race Guide
T he V8 Supercars Championship has emerged from its mid-season break and heads to Queensland Raceway this weekend with another new race format up its sleeve
The Saturday action will again feature a 20 minute qualifying session before a pair of 70km lsquosprint racesrsquo are run with just a 15 minute lsquoservicing windowrsquo between them
While the details of how the servicing window will operate are quite complex the number of set-up changes that take place between races looks set to be the most interesting factor
Teams and drivers will not have the luxury of a long debrief before committing to any adjustments and a bold move to a different spring roll-bar or shock absorber setting could transform a carrsquos chances from one race to the next
The format adds another unknown element into what already promises to be an exciting weekend of racing
The relative performance of the visiting Victorians against the local teams is always interesting to watch at Queensland Raceway with Garth Tander having proven particularly strong at the venue last year in his Toll Holden Racing Team entry
TeamVodafone duo Jamie Whincup and Craig Lowndes currently hold a commanding advantage in the championship standings but converting their status as favourites into a pair of race victories will be no easy task
Green means go

QampA with JAMES COURTNEY
Itrsquos been a tumultuous first season at the Toll Holden Racing Team for James Courtney
Having won the 2010 V8 Supercars Championship with Dick Johnson Racing Courtneyrsquos high-profile switch to the factory Holden team garnered much off-season attention which was duly satisfied by a first-up win in Abu Dhabi
Since then however there has been little to write home about for the 31-year-old with a string of on-track clashes resulting in just six top 10 finishes from the first 15 races and a lowly 19th place in the championship standings
Speedcafecomrsquos Grant Rowley spoke to Courtney prior to Queensland Raceway - a vanue which has proven kind to the Gold Coast resident in the past
SPEEDCAFE Queensland Raceway is a track that yoursquove had a lot of success at You won with the Stone Brothers and you dominated last year with Dick Johnson Racing Whatrsquos special about this place for you
JAMES COURTNEY Irsquove managed to win or have a pole position in most years when Irsquove driven there Itrsquos a track that Irsquove had a lot of success at and it has usually been a turning point of my season as well
Irsquom certainly hoping I can continue that trend there
SPEEDCAFE It has been a difficult title defence for you Is this the round where you start to turn it all around
COURTNEY I hope so Wersquove changed quite a few things in the rear of the car The rear wasnrsquot doing what we thought it was and it is all being rectified now
It is good that wersquove had this mid-season break and wersquove been able to have a really good look at it all Wersquore very happy with the finds wersquove made and wersquore quietly confident wersquove found the gains It is definitely going to help us there this weekend
If you look at our results from Townsville in the Sunday race both cars were in the top five until Garthrsquos car had the failure and I had the brain failure The speed was getting there so I think with these couple of little changes wersquore on the right path
SPEEDCAFE You sound optimistic and you do tend to look on the bright side more often than not but has it been frustrating not getting the results you were getting last year
COURTNEY Itrsquos not where I want to be thatrsquos for sure but if I hadnrsquot won the race at the start of the year (at Yas Marina) Irsquod probably be going crazy That result early on keeps me driving for the next one
Now wersquore concentrating on getting the car ready for Bathurst and getting a consistent car and also building towards next year
SPEEDCAFE It sounds very 1980s of you ndash forgetting the championship and building a strong car for Bathurst
COURTNEY The championship done for us really so I just want to get to Bathurst Irsquove been close quite a few times but havenrsquot been able to get it over the line Thatrsquos where our main focus is as well as Homebush
Itrsquos not about collecting championship points for us itrsquos about going out there and getting race wins and building towards next year Therersquos some great news coming up for HRT in the next couple of weeks which both myself Garth and the rest of the team are pretty excited about
SPEEDCAFE Now looking ahead to Queensland Racewayrsquos event therersquos a new Saturday race format What are your thoughts on it
COURTNEY I think itrsquos going to be interesting It will be pretty crazy especially if therersquos a bit of rain I think the format will mix it up
I donrsquot know wersquoll see how it goes but Irsquom happy racing the car more Irsquod rather be there racing it rather than sitting on the sidelines looking at the car I think it will work well for the fans too
SPEEDCAFE Between those two Saturday races is a short 15 minute break ndash like a footy match Do you think you guys should lsquoswap endsrsquo and run the second half in the opposite direction
COURTNEY That would be a cracker Irsquod be up for that No testing just bang straight into it

CIRCUIT INFO
Queensland Raceway was quickly dubbed the lsquoPapercliprsquo because of its basic layout Changing temperatures can make this circuit a nightmare for drivers and engineers as its grip level changes at different times of the day Despite its simple layout it tends to provide entertaining racing with passing chances at turns 1 3 4 and 6 It is also the home test circuit for a large portion of the V8 Supercar Championship field

TECHNICAL by CAMPBELL LITTLE
Queensland Raceway is a significant unknown for the visiting teams this year after the flooding the circuit experienced last summer
Track condition is always the big talking point at Ipswich and the resurfacing planned for the last off-season obviously didnrsquot happened
The track surface has deteriorated a fair bit over the years but wersquove all got to race on the same surface and make the cars handle it the best we can
Itrsquos always a spirited battle between the local and visiting teams at Winton (the Victorian teamsrsquo test track) and Queensland Raceway It would have certainly helped to have spent time at Queensland Raceway recently to get a set-up
Typically we can go back to most race tracks and not have a bad baseline but this time wersquove really just got to see what happens when we get there
The braking areas at Turn 1 and Turn 3 are very high speed and very bumpy so the challenge for the visiting teams is to find a set-up that works in those areas
The cars bottom out in both braking zones with 40mm of travel in the front Midway through Turn 1 the cars virtually fly as they jump across the road on turn-in which makes for pretty spectacular viewing for the fans
The cars can also bottom out at the rear thanks to the exit kerbs particularly at Turn 2 The left-rear can disappear well into the guard if you run wide there and the tyre can cop a bit of damage from that sort of treatment The exit of Turn 3 used to cause some concerns as well before they took the big kerb out of it
Car set-up is always a compromise no matter where you go and here itrsquos a fine balance If you run the cars

Race Guide
too soft you risk them hitting the ground too hard but fixing that with a harder spring creates a lot of understeer in Turn 3 and 6
New format
Having two short races on the Saturday with a 15 minute service interval is something different for all of us V8 Supercars is obviously trying to mix it up and I think theyrsquoll succeed with that
Whenever they bring in something new there are always a lot of questions The pit facilities at Queensland Raceway arenrsquot quite to the level we see at some of the other circuits so itrsquos an interesting choice of location for this format but wersquoll see how it goes
Therersquos been a lot of discussion about how the service window will be policed and controlled Irsquod hate to see someone given a penalty because one guy walks over the wrong line or something stupid like that
Shorter races
Everyone can afford to be a little bit more aggressive on Saturday with the shorter races both in terms of set-
up and the way the cars are driven
The most wersquore doing on a set of four soft tyres is normally around 85km due to the 75 litre fuel tanks By comparison Saturdayrsquos races are 22 laps each which is only 68 or so kilometres
The break between races will be long enough to throw in a new spring or roll bar as well as a new set of tyres so the relative car performances could be quite different depending on how much people learn in the first heat
Saturday will be very straight forward with one tyre set per race but Sunday could be more interesting Last year Queensland Raceway was one of the few tracks where we had people taking two tyres only during a soft tyre pitstop We saw a couple of teams either doing rears only or just the working side in one of their stops so wersquoll see if that is a strategy that will appear again this weekend
The 200km race on Sunday will be very much like Townsville where wersquore all looking at our last fuel window and how a Safety Car might affect that

DID YOU KNOW
Much is made of Winton and Queensland Raceway being the home test track of teams in the V8 Supercars Championship but lsquohomersquo teams in Queensland have never really dominated at Ipswich
In the 26 races held since the first in 1999 Queensland-based teams have won nine races for a success rate of 35
Things have been more even in recent times Since 2001 honours have been split 9-9 between home teams and the lsquoinvadersrsquo from down south Last year James Courtney right won both races to be just thet hird man at Queensland Raceway ndash after Craig Lowndes and Garth Tander ndash to clean sweep the wins on a weekend at the track
Garth Tanderrsquos victory in the Saturday race at the Sucrogen Townsville 400 has taken the Toll Holden Racing Team to the brink of its 200th all-time race win
The team has now won 199 races ndash both in the V8 Supercars Championship and at non-cham-pionship events such as the Australian Grand Prix Gold Coast Indy Sandown 500 Bathurst
1000 (in the years where the endurance races were not part of the championship) and New Zealand Sprints
The Toll HRT has won 168 ATCCV8SC races leaving it well clear of Dick Johnson Racing (80) and Triple Eight Race Engineering (69) Holdenrsquos official factory racing team began in 1990 and celebrated its 21st birthday this year

As was the case last year at Queensland Raceway Dunloprsquos Soft Tyre will be the only tyre in use for qualifying and racing ndash and that should bring a smile to the face of championship leader Jamie Whincup
In the eight all-Soft Tyre races held this year (as opposed to races with a mix of Soft and Hard) Whincup has scored an impressive 130 points more than the next best driver Shane van Gisbergen
Minus a disastrous weekend at Hamilton Whincup has not finished outside the top three in the other six Soft tyre races so far this year
Each driver will have seven sets of new Soft tyres to use for the weekend
The Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series is the main support to the Coates Hire Ipswich 300 and it will see the return of Grant Denyer to the development category
The former series regular last competed in 2009 and will drive a Kelly Racing-run Commodore in his return to the series ndash the same car used by Rick Kelly to win in Hamilton earlier this year Denyer and the winner of the 7mate lsquoShannons Supercar Showdownrsquo program will drive the car under a wildcard entry at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 in October
A total of 28 cars have entered for the fourth round of the Fujitsu Series led by Andrew Thompson who holds a 114-point advantage over Jack Perkins
Jim Beam Racingrsquos Steven Johnson has been enjoying a solid year for the famous Ford team and hersquos proven to be the only man to complete every lap of racing so far this year
The 17 Falcon driver has completed all 869 laps in the 15 championship races held with Craig Lowndes Shane van Gisbergen and Rick Kelly having completed 868
Sitting eighth in the championship Johnson is only 79 points behind fourth-placed Kelly
Queensland Raceway is the site of Johnsonrsquos last race win in the V8 Supercars Championship ndash 10 years ago he teamed with Paul Radisich to win the 500-kilometre endurance race held at the venue

Queensland Raceway does tend to get a bad rap but really itrsquos a great circuit for spectators The lack of elevation means that fans can see all the action from almost anywhere From a driverrsquos perspective itrsquos a challenging circuit because itrsquos actu-ally very difficult to pass on While it looks simple on paper itrsquos very difficult to complete a quick lap due in part to the bumpy surface that has developed over the years

Race Guide
T he V8 Supercars Championship has emerged from its mid-season break and heads to Queensland Raceway this weekend with another new race format up its sleeve
The Saturday action will again feature a 20 minute qualifying session before a pair of 70km lsquosprint racesrsquo are run with just a 15 minute lsquoservicing windowrsquo between them
While the details of how the servicing window will operate are quite complex the number of set-up changes that take place between races looks set to be the most interesting factor
Teams and drivers will not have the luxury of a long debrief before committing to any adjustments and a bold move to a different spring roll-bar or shock absorber setting could transform a carrsquos chances from one race to the next
The format adds another unknown element into what already promises to be an exciting weekend of racing
The relative performance of the visiting Victorians against the local teams is always interesting to watch at Queensland Raceway with Garth Tander having proven particularly strong at the venue last year in his Toll Holden Racing Team entry
TeamVodafone duo Jamie Whincup and Craig Lowndes currently hold a commanding advantage in the championship standings but converting their status as favourites into a pair of race victories will be no easy task
Green means go

QampA with JAMES COURTNEY
Itrsquos been a tumultuous first season at the Toll Holden Racing Team for James Courtney
Having won the 2010 V8 Supercars Championship with Dick Johnson Racing Courtneyrsquos high-profile switch to the factory Holden team garnered much off-season attention which was duly satisfied by a first-up win in Abu Dhabi
Since then however there has been little to write home about for the 31-year-old with a string of on-track clashes resulting in just six top 10 finishes from the first 15 races and a lowly 19th place in the championship standings
Speedcafecomrsquos Grant Rowley spoke to Courtney prior to Queensland Raceway - a vanue which has proven kind to the Gold Coast resident in the past
SPEEDCAFE Queensland Raceway is a track that yoursquove had a lot of success at You won with the Stone Brothers and you dominated last year with Dick Johnson Racing Whatrsquos special about this place for you
JAMES COURTNEY Irsquove managed to win or have a pole position in most years when Irsquove driven there Itrsquos a track that Irsquove had a lot of success at and it has usually been a turning point of my season as well
Irsquom certainly hoping I can continue that trend there
SPEEDCAFE It has been a difficult title defence for you Is this the round where you start to turn it all around
COURTNEY I hope so Wersquove changed quite a few things in the rear of the car The rear wasnrsquot doing what we thought it was and it is all being rectified now
It is good that wersquove had this mid-season break and wersquove been able to have a really good look at it all Wersquore very happy with the finds wersquove made and wersquore quietly confident wersquove found the gains It is definitely going to help us there this weekend
If you look at our results from Townsville in the Sunday race both cars were in the top five until Garthrsquos car had the failure and I had the brain failure The speed was getting there so I think with these couple of little changes wersquore on the right path
SPEEDCAFE You sound optimistic and you do tend to look on the bright side more often than not but has it been frustrating not getting the results you were getting last year
COURTNEY Itrsquos not where I want to be thatrsquos for sure but if I hadnrsquot won the race at the start of the year (at Yas Marina) Irsquod probably be going crazy That result early on keeps me driving for the next one
Now wersquore concentrating on getting the car ready for Bathurst and getting a consistent car and also building towards next year
SPEEDCAFE It sounds very 1980s of you ndash forgetting the championship and building a strong car for Bathurst
COURTNEY The championship done for us really so I just want to get to Bathurst Irsquove been close quite a few times but havenrsquot been able to get it over the line Thatrsquos where our main focus is as well as Homebush
Itrsquos not about collecting championship points for us itrsquos about going out there and getting race wins and building towards next year Therersquos some great news coming up for HRT in the next couple of weeks which both myself Garth and the rest of the team are pretty excited about
SPEEDCAFE Now looking ahead to Queensland Racewayrsquos event therersquos a new Saturday race format What are your thoughts on it
COURTNEY I think itrsquos going to be interesting It will be pretty crazy especially if therersquos a bit of rain I think the format will mix it up
I donrsquot know wersquoll see how it goes but Irsquom happy racing the car more Irsquod rather be there racing it rather than sitting on the sidelines looking at the car I think it will work well for the fans too
SPEEDCAFE Between those two Saturday races is a short 15 minute break ndash like a footy match Do you think you guys should lsquoswap endsrsquo and run the second half in the opposite direction
COURTNEY That would be a cracker Irsquod be up for that No testing just bang straight into it

CIRCUIT INFO
Queensland Raceway was quickly dubbed the lsquoPapercliprsquo because of its basic layout Changing temperatures can make this circuit a nightmare for drivers and engineers as its grip level changes at different times of the day Despite its simple layout it tends to provide entertaining racing with passing chances at turns 1 3 4 and 6 It is also the home test circuit for a large portion of the V8 Supercar Championship field

Races 161718 - Ipswich
TECHNICAL by CAMPBELL LITTLE
Queensland Raceway is a significant unknown for the visiting teams this year after the flooding the circuit experienced last summer
Track condition is always the big talking point at Ipswich and the resurfacing planned for the last off-season obviously didnrsquot happened
The track surface has deteriorated a fair bit over the years but wersquove all got to race on the same surface and make the cars handle it the best we can
Itrsquos always a spirited battle between the local and visiting teams at Winton (the Victorian teamsrsquo test track) and Queensland Raceway It would have certainly helped to have spent time at Queensland Raceway recently to get a set-up
Typically we can go back to most race tracks and not have a bad baseline but this time wersquove really just got to see what happens when we get there
The braking areas at Turn 1 and Turn 3 are very high speed and very bumpy so the challenge for the visiting teams is to find a set-up that works in those areas
The cars bottom out in both braking zones with 40mm of travel in the front Midway through Turn 1 the cars virtually fly as they jump across the road on turn-in which makes for pretty spectacular viewing for the fans
The cars can also bottom out at the rear thanks to the exit kerbs particularly at Turn 2 The left-rear can disappear well into the guard if you run wide there and the tyre can cop a bit of damage from that sort of treatment The exit of Turn 3 used to cause some concerns as well before they took the big kerb out of it
Car set-up is always a compromise no matter where you go and here itrsquos a fine balance If you run the cars

Race Guide
too soft you risk them hitting the ground too hard but fixing that with a harder spring creates a lot of understeer in Turn 3 and 6
New format
Having two short races on the Saturday with a 15 minute service interval is something different for all of us V8 Supercars is obviously trying to mix it up and I think theyrsquoll succeed with that
Whenever they bring in something new there are always a lot of questions The pit facilities at Queensland Raceway arenrsquot quite to the level we see at some of the other circuits so itrsquos an interesting choice of location for this format but wersquoll see how it goes
Therersquos been a lot of discussion about how the service window will be policed and controlled Irsquod hate to see someone given a penalty because one guy walks over the wrong line or something stupid like that
Shorter races
Everyone can afford to be a little bit more aggressive on Saturday with the shorter races both in terms of set-
up and the way the cars are driven
The most wersquore doing on a set of four soft tyres is normally around 85km due to the 75 litre fuel tanks By comparison Saturdayrsquos races are 22 laps each which is only 68 or so kilometres
The break between races will be long enough to throw in a new spring or roll bar as well as a new set of tyres so the relative car performances could be quite different depending on how much people learn in the first heat
Saturday will be very straight forward with one tyre set per race but Sunday could be more interesting Last year Queensland Raceway was one of the few tracks where we had people taking two tyres only during a soft tyre pitstop We saw a couple of teams either doing rears only or just the working side in one of their stops so wersquoll see if that is a strategy that will appear again this weekend
The 200km race on Sunday will be very much like Townsville where wersquore all looking at our last fuel window and how a Safety Car might affect that

DID YOU KNOW
Much is made of Winton and Queensland Raceway being the home test track of teams in the V8 Supercars Championship but lsquohomersquo teams in Queensland have never really dominated at Ipswich
In the 26 races held since the first in 1999 Queensland-based teams have won nine races for a success rate of 35
Things have been more even in recent times Since 2001 honours have been split 9-9 between home teams and the lsquoinvadersrsquo from down south Last year James Courtney right won both races to be just thet hird man at Queensland Raceway ndash after Craig Lowndes and Garth Tander ndash to clean sweep the wins on a weekend at the track
Garth Tanderrsquos victory in the Saturday race at the Sucrogen Townsville 400 has taken the Toll Holden Racing Team to the brink of its 200th all-time race win
The team has now won 199 races ndash both in the V8 Supercars Championship and at non-cham-pionship events such as the Australian Grand Prix Gold Coast Indy Sandown 500 Bathurst
1000 (in the years where the endurance races were not part of the championship) and New Zealand Sprints
The Toll HRT has won 168 ATCCV8SC races leaving it well clear of Dick Johnson Racing (80) and Triple Eight Race Engineering (69) Holdenrsquos official factory racing team began in 1990 and celebrated its 21st birthday this year

As was the case last year at Queensland Raceway Dunloprsquos Soft Tyre will be the only tyre in use for qualifying and racing ndash and that should bring a smile to the face of championship leader Jamie Whincup
In the eight all-Soft Tyre races held this year (as opposed to races with a mix of Soft and Hard) Whincup has scored an impressive 130 points more than the next best driver Shane van Gisbergen
Minus a disastrous weekend at Hamilton Whincup has not finished outside the top three in the other six Soft tyre races so far this year
Each driver will have seven sets of new Soft tyres to use for the weekend
The Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series is the main support to the Coates Hire Ipswich 300 and it will see the return of Grant Denyer to the development category
The former series regular last competed in 2009 and will drive a Kelly Racing-run Commodore in his return to the series ndash the same car used by Rick Kelly to win in Hamilton earlier this year Denyer and the winner of the 7mate lsquoShannons Supercar Showdownrsquo program will drive the car under a wildcard entry at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 in October
A total of 28 cars have entered for the fourth round of the Fujitsu Series led by Andrew Thompson who holds a 114-point advantage over Jack Perkins
Jim Beam Racingrsquos Steven Johnson has been enjoying a solid year for the famous Ford team and hersquos proven to be the only man to complete every lap of racing so far this year
The 17 Falcon driver has completed all 869 laps in the 15 championship races held with Craig Lowndes Shane van Gisbergen and Rick Kelly having completed 868
Sitting eighth in the championship Johnson is only 79 points behind fourth-placed Kelly
Queensland Raceway is the site of Johnsonrsquos last race win in the V8 Supercars Championship ndash 10 years ago he teamed with Paul Radisich to win the 500-kilometre endurance race held at the venue

Brisbane is a fantastic city and really isnrsquot all that far from Queens-land Raceway making it the perfect place to stay during the event The city has plenty of great res-taurants along the river and throughout the CBD The river winds its way through town creating a great atmosphere and viewing areas and two world class sporting facilities mean there is always something on
CRAIG ON BRISBANE CRAIG ON PERTHCRAIG ON QUEENSLAND RACEWAY
Queensland Raceway does tend to get a bad rap but really itrsquos a great circuit for spectators The lack of elevation means that fans can see all the action from almost anywhere From a driverrsquos perspective itrsquos a challenging circuit because itrsquos actu-ally very difficult to pass on While it looks simple on paper itrsquos very difficult to complete a quick lap due in part to the bumpy surface that has developed over the years

T he V8 Supercars Championship has emerged from its mid-season break and heads to Queensland Raceway this weekend with another new race format up its sleeve
The Saturday action will again feature a 20 minute qualifying session before a pair of 70km lsquosprint racesrsquo are run with just a 15 minute lsquoservicing windowrsquo between them
While the details of how the servicing window will operate are quite complex the number of set-up changes that take place between races looks set to be the most interesting factor
Teams and drivers will not have the luxury of a long debrief before committing to any adjustments and a bold move to a different spring roll-bar or shock absorber setting could transform a carrsquos chances from one race to the next
The format adds another unknown element into what already promises to be an exciting weekend of racing
The relative performance of the visiting Victorians against the local teams is always interesting to watch at Queensland Raceway with Garth Tander having proven particularly strong at the venue last year in his Toll Holden Racing Team entry
TeamVodafone duo Jamie Whincup and Craig Lowndes currently hold a commanding advantage in the championship standings but converting their status as favourites into a pair of race victories will be no easy task
Green means go

QampA with JAMES COURTNEY
Itrsquos been a tumultuous first season at the Toll Holden Racing Team for James Courtney
Having won the 2010 V8 Supercars Championship with Dick Johnson Racing Courtneyrsquos high-profile switch to the factory Holden team garnered much off-season attention which was duly satisfied by a first-up win in Abu Dhabi
Since then however there has been little to write home about for the 31-year-old with a string of on-track clashes resulting in just six top 10 finishes from the first 15 races and a lowly 19th place in the championship standings
Speedcafecomrsquos Grant Rowley spoke to Courtney prior to Queensland Raceway - a vanue which has proven kind to the Gold Coast resident in the past
SPEEDCAFE Queensland Raceway is a track that yoursquove had a lot of success at You won with the Stone Brothers and you dominated last year with Dick Johnson Racing Whatrsquos special about this place for you
JAMES COURTNEY Irsquove managed to win or have a pole position in most years when Irsquove driven there Itrsquos a track that Irsquove had a lot of success at and it has usually been a turning point of my season as well
Irsquom certainly hoping I can continue that trend there
SPEEDCAFE It has been a difficult title defence for you Is this the round where you start to turn it all around
COURTNEY I hope so Wersquove changed quite a few things in the rear of the car The rear wasnrsquot doing what we thought it was and it is all being rectified now
It is good that wersquove had this mid-season break and wersquove been able to have a really good look at it all Wersquore very happy with the finds wersquove made and wersquore quietly confident wersquove found the gains It is definitely going to help us there this weekend
If you look at our results from Townsville in the Sunday race both cars were in the top five until Garthrsquos car had the failure and I had the brain failure The speed was getting there so I think with these couple of little changes wersquore on the right path
SPEEDCAFE You sound optimistic and you do tend to look on the bright side more often than not but has it been frustrating not getting the results you were getting last year
COURTNEY Itrsquos not where I want to be thatrsquos for sure but if I hadnrsquot won the race at the start of the year (at Yas Marina) Irsquod probably be going crazy That result early on keeps me driving for the next one
Now wersquore concentrating on getting the car ready for Bathurst and getting a consistent car and also building towards next year
SPEEDCAFE It sounds very 1980s of you ndash forgetting the championship and building a strong car for Bathurst
COURTNEY The championship done for us really so I just want to get to Bathurst Irsquove been close quite a few times but havenrsquot been able to get it over the line Thatrsquos where our main focus is as well as Homebush
Itrsquos not about collecting championship points for us itrsquos about going out there and getting race wins and building towards next year Therersquos some great news coming up for HRT in the next couple of weeks which both myself Garth and the rest of the team are pretty excited about
SPEEDCAFE Now looking ahead to Queensland Racewayrsquos event therersquos a new Saturday race format What are your thoughts on it
COURTNEY I think itrsquos going to be interesting It will be pretty crazy especially if therersquos a bit of rain I think the format will mix it up
I donrsquot know wersquoll see how it goes but Irsquom happy racing the car more Irsquod rather be there racing it rather than sitting on the sidelines looking at the car I think it will work well for the fans too
SPEEDCAFE Between those two Saturday races is a short 15 minute break ndash like a footy match Do you think you guys should lsquoswap endsrsquo and run the second half in the opposite direction
COURTNEY That would be a cracker Irsquod be up for that No testing just bang straight into it

CIRCUIT INFO
Queensland Raceway was quickly dubbed the lsquoPapercliprsquo because of its basic layout Changing temperatures can make this circuit a nightmare for drivers and engineers as its grip level changes at different times of the day Despite its simple layout it tends to provide entertaining racing with passing chances at turns 1 3 4 and 6 It is also the home test circuit for a large portion of the V8 Supercar Championship field

TECHNICAL by CAMPBELL LITTLE
Queensland Raceway is a significant unknown for the visiting teams this year after the flooding the circuit experienced last summer
Track condition is always the big talking point at Ipswich and the resurfacing planned for the last off-season obviously didnrsquot happened
The track surface has deteriorated a fair bit over the years but wersquove all got to race on the same surface and make the cars handle it the best we can
Itrsquos always a spirited battle between the local and visiting teams at Winton (the Victorian teamsrsquo test track) and Queensland Raceway It would have certainly helped to have spent time at Queensland Raceway recently to get a set-up
Typically we can go back to most race tracks and not have a bad baseline but this time wersquove really just got to see what happens when we get there
The braking areas at Turn 1 and Turn 3 are very high speed and very bumpy so the challenge for the visiting teams is to find a set-up that works in those areas
The cars bottom out in both braking zones with 40mm of travel in the front Midway through Turn 1 the cars virtually fly as they jump across the road on turn-in which makes for pretty spectacular viewing for the fans
The cars can also bottom out at the rear thanks to the exit kerbs particularly at Turn 2 The left-rear can disappear well into the guard if you run wide there and the tyre can cop a bit of damage from that sort of treatment The exit of Turn 3 used to cause some concerns as well before they took the big kerb out of it
Car set-up is always a compromise no matter where you go and here itrsquos a fine balance If you run the cars

Race Guide
too soft you risk them hitting the ground too hard but fixing that with a harder spring creates a lot of understeer in Turn 3 and 6
New format
Having two short races on the Saturday with a 15 minute service interval is something different for all of us V8 Supercars is obviously trying to mix it up and I think theyrsquoll succeed with that
Whenever they bring in something new there are always a lot of questions The pit facilities at Queensland Raceway arenrsquot quite to the level we see at some of the other circuits so itrsquos an interesting choice of location for this format but wersquoll see how it goes
Therersquos been a lot of discussion about how the service window will be policed and controlled Irsquod hate to see someone given a penalty because one guy walks over the wrong line or something stupid like that
Shorter races
Everyone can afford to be a little bit more aggressive on Saturday with the shorter races both in terms of set-
up and the way the cars are driven
The most wersquore doing on a set of four soft tyres is normally around 85km due to the 75 litre fuel tanks By comparison Saturdayrsquos races are 22 laps each which is only 68 or so kilometres
The break between races will be long enough to throw in a new spring or roll bar as well as a new set of tyres so the relative car performances could be quite different depending on how much people learn in the first heat
Saturday will be very straight forward with one tyre set per race but Sunday could be more interesting Last year Queensland Raceway was one of the few tracks where we had people taking two tyres only during a soft tyre pitstop We saw a couple of teams either doing rears only or just the working side in one of their stops so wersquoll see if that is a strategy that will appear again this weekend
The 200km race on Sunday will be very much like Townsville where wersquore all looking at our last fuel window and how a Safety Car might affect that

DID YOU KNOW
Much is made of Winton and Queensland Raceway being the home test track of teams in the V8 Supercars Championship but lsquohomersquo teams in Queensland have never really dominated at Ipswich
In the 26 races held since the first in 1999 Queensland-based teams have won nine races for a success rate of 35
Things have been more even in recent times Since 2001 honours have been split 9-9 between home teams and the lsquoinvadersrsquo from down south Last year James Courtney right won both races to be just thet hird man at Queensland Raceway ndash after Craig Lowndes and Garth Tander ndash to clean sweep the wins on a weekend at the track
Garth Tanderrsquos victory in the Saturday race at the Sucrogen Townsville 400 has taken the Toll Holden Racing Team to the brink of its 200th all-time race win
The team has now won 199 races ndash both in the V8 Supercars Championship and at non-cham-pionship events such as the Australian Grand Prix Gold Coast Indy Sandown 500 Bathurst
1000 (in the years where the endurance races were not part of the championship) and New Zealand Sprints
The Toll HRT has won 168 ATCCV8SC races leaving it well clear of Dick Johnson Racing (80) and Triple Eight Race Engineering (69) Holdenrsquos official factory racing team began in 1990 and celebrated its 21st birthday this year

As was the case last year at Queensland Raceway Dunloprsquos Soft Tyre will be the only tyre in use for qualifying and racing ndash and that should bring a smile to the face of championship leader Jamie Whincup
In the eight all-Soft Tyre races held this year (as opposed to races with a mix of Soft and Hard) Whincup has scored an impressive 130 points more than the next best driver Shane van Gisbergen
Minus a disastrous weekend at Hamilton Whincup has not finished outside the top three in the other six Soft tyre races so far this year
Each driver will have seven sets of new Soft tyres to use for the weekend
The Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series is the main support to the Coates Hire Ipswich 300 and it will see the return of Grant Denyer to the development category
The former series regular last competed in 2009 and will drive a Kelly Racing-run Commodore in his return to the series ndash the same car used by Rick Kelly to win in Hamilton earlier this year Denyer and the winner of the 7mate lsquoShannons Supercar Showdownrsquo program will drive the car under a wildcard entry at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 in October
A total of 28 cars have entered for the fourth round of the Fujitsu Series led by Andrew Thompson who holds a 114-point advantage over Jack Perkins
Jim Beam Racingrsquos Steven Johnson has been enjoying a solid year for the famous Ford team and hersquos proven to be the only man to complete every lap of racing so far this year
The 17 Falcon driver has completed all 869 laps in the 15 championship races held with Craig Lowndes Shane van Gisbergen and Rick Kelly having completed 868
Sitting eighth in the championship Johnson is only 79 points behind fourth-placed Kelly
Queensland Raceway is the site of Johnsonrsquos last race win in the V8 Supercars Championship ndash 10 years ago he teamed with Paul Radisich to win the 500-kilometre endurance race held at the venue

Queensland Raceway does tend to get a bad rap but really itrsquos a great circuit for spectators The lack of elevation means that fans can see all the action from almost anywhere From a driverrsquos perspective itrsquos a challenging circuit because itrsquos actu-ally very difficult to pass on While it looks simple on paper itrsquos very difficult to complete a quick lap due in part to the bumpy surface that has developed over the years

T he V8 Supercars Championship has emerged from its mid-season break and heads to Queensland Raceway this weekend with another new race format up its sleeve
The Saturday action will again feature a 20 minute qualifying session before a pair of 70km lsquosprint racesrsquo are run with just a 15 minute lsquoservicing windowrsquo between them
While the details of how the servicing window will operate are quite complex the number of set-up changes that take place between races looks set to be the most interesting factor
Teams and drivers will not have the luxury of a long debrief before committing to any adjustments and a bold move to a different spring roll-bar or shock absorber setting could transform a carrsquos chances from one race to the next
The format adds another unknown element into what already promises to be an exciting weekend of racing
The relative performance of the visiting Victorians against the local teams is always interesting to watch at Queensland Raceway with Garth Tander having proven particularly strong at the venue last year in his Toll Holden Racing Team entry
TeamVodafone duo Jamie Whincup and Craig Lowndes currently hold a commanding advantage in the championship standings but converting their status as favourites into a pair of race victories will be no easy task
Green means go

QampA with JAMES COURTNEY
Itrsquos been a tumultuous first season at the Toll Holden Racing Team for James Courtney
Having won the 2010 V8 Supercars Championship with Dick Johnson Racing Courtneyrsquos high-profile switch to the factory Holden team garnered much off-season attention which was duly satisfied by a first-up win in Abu Dhabi
Since then however there has been little to write home about for the 31-year-old with a string of on-track clashes resulting in just six top 10 finishes from the first 15 races and a lowly 19th place in the championship standings
Speedcafecomrsquos Grant Rowley spoke to Courtney prior to Queensland Raceway - a vanue which has proven kind to the Gold Coast resident in the past
SPEEDCAFE Queensland Raceway is a track that yoursquove had a lot of success at You won with the Stone Brothers and you dominated last year with Dick Johnson Racing Whatrsquos special about this place for you
JAMES COURTNEY Irsquove managed to win or have a pole position in most years when Irsquove driven there Itrsquos a track that Irsquove had a lot of success at and it has usually been a turning point of my season as well
Irsquom certainly hoping I can continue that trend there
SPEEDCAFE It has been a difficult title defence for you Is this the round where you start to turn it all around
COURTNEY I hope so Wersquove changed quite a few things in the rear of the car The rear wasnrsquot doing what we thought it was and it is all being rectified now
It is good that wersquove had this mid-season break and wersquove been able to have a really good look at it all Wersquore very happy with the finds wersquove made and wersquore quietly confident wersquove found the gains It is definitely going to help us there this weekend
If you look at our results from Townsville in the Sunday race both cars were in the top five until Garthrsquos car had the failure and I had the brain failure The speed was getting there so I think with these couple of little changes wersquore on the right path
SPEEDCAFE You sound optimistic and you do tend to look on the bright side more often than not but has it been frustrating not getting the results you were getting last year
COURTNEY Itrsquos not where I want to be thatrsquos for sure but if I hadnrsquot won the race at the start of the year (at Yas Marina) Irsquod probably be going crazy That result early on keeps me driving for the next one
Now wersquore concentrating on getting the car ready for Bathurst and getting a consistent car and also building towards next year
SPEEDCAFE It sounds very 1980s of you ndash forgetting the championship and building a strong car for Bathurst
COURTNEY The championship done for us really so I just want to get to Bathurst Irsquove been close quite a few times but havenrsquot been able to get it over the line Thatrsquos where our main focus is as well as Homebush
Itrsquos not about collecting championship points for us itrsquos about going out there and getting race wins and building towards next year Therersquos some great news coming up for HRT in the next couple of weeks which both myself Garth and the rest of the team are pretty excited about
SPEEDCAFE Now looking ahead to Queensland Racewayrsquos event therersquos a new Saturday race format What are your thoughts on it
COURTNEY I think itrsquos going to be interesting It will be pretty crazy especially if therersquos a bit of rain I think the format will mix it up
I donrsquot know wersquoll see how it goes but Irsquom happy racing the car more Irsquod rather be there racing it rather than sitting on the sidelines looking at the car I think it will work well for the fans too
SPEEDCAFE Between those two Saturday races is a short 15 minute break ndash like a footy match Do you think you guys should lsquoswap endsrsquo and run the second half in the opposite direction
COURTNEY That would be a cracker Irsquod be up for that No testing just bang straight into it

CIRCUIT INFO
Queensland Raceway was quickly dubbed the lsquoPapercliprsquo because of its basic layout Changing temperatures can make this circuit a nightmare for drivers and engineers as its grip level changes at different times of the day Despite its simple layout it tends to provide entertaining racing with passing chances at turns 1 3 4 and 6 It is also the home test circuit for a large portion of the V8 Supercar Championship field

TECHNICAL by CAMPBELL LITTLE
Queensland Raceway is a significant unknown for the visiting teams this year after the flooding the circuit experienced last summer
Track condition is always the big talking point at Ipswich and the resurfacing planned for the last off-season obviously didnrsquot happened
The track surface has deteriorated a fair bit over the years but wersquove all got to race on the same surface and make the cars handle it the best we can
Itrsquos always a spirited battle between the local and visiting teams at Winton (the Victorian teamsrsquo test track) and Queensland Raceway It would have certainly helped to have spent time at Queensland Raceway recently to get a set-up
Typically we can go back to most race tracks and not have a bad baseline but this time wersquove really just got to see what happens when we get there
The braking areas at Turn 1 and Turn 3 are very high speed and very bumpy so the challenge for the visiting teams is to find a set-up that works in those areas
The cars bottom out in both braking zones with 40mm of travel in the front Midway through Turn 1 the cars virtually fly as they jump across the road on turn-in which makes for pretty spectacular viewing for the fans
The cars can also bottom out at the rear thanks to the exit kerbs particularly at Turn 2 The left-rear can disappear well into the guard if you run wide there and the tyre can cop a bit of damage from that sort of treatment The exit of Turn 3 used to cause some concerns as well before they took the big kerb out of it
Car set-up is always a compromise no matter where you go and here itrsquos a fine balance If you run the cars

Race Guide
too soft you risk them hitting the ground too hard but fixing that with a harder spring creates a lot of understeer in Turn 3 and 6
New format
Having two short races on the Saturday with a 15 minute service interval is something different for all of us V8 Supercars is obviously trying to mix it up and I think theyrsquoll succeed with that
Whenever they bring in something new there are always a lot of questions The pit facilities at Queensland Raceway arenrsquot quite to the level we see at some of the other circuits so itrsquos an interesting choice of location for this format but wersquoll see how it goes
Therersquos been a lot of discussion about how the service window will be policed and controlled Irsquod hate to see someone given a penalty because one guy walks over the wrong line or something stupid like that
Shorter races
Everyone can afford to be a little bit more aggressive on Saturday with the shorter races both in terms of set-
up and the way the cars are driven
The most wersquore doing on a set of four soft tyres is normally around 85km due to the 75 litre fuel tanks By comparison Saturdayrsquos races are 22 laps each which is only 68 or so kilometres
The break between races will be long enough to throw in a new spring or roll bar as well as a new set of tyres so the relative car performances could be quite different depending on how much people learn in the first heat
Saturday will be very straight forward with one tyre set per race but Sunday could be more interesting Last year Queensland Raceway was one of the few tracks where we had people taking two tyres only during a soft tyre pitstop We saw a couple of teams either doing rears only or just the working side in one of their stops so wersquoll see if that is a strategy that will appear again this weekend
The 200km race on Sunday will be very much like Townsville where wersquore all looking at our last fuel window and how a Safety Car might affect that

DID YOU KNOW
Much is made of Winton and Queensland Raceway being the home test track of teams in the V8 Supercars Championship but lsquohomersquo teams in Queensland have never really dominated at Ipswich
In the 26 races held since the first in 1999 Queensland-based teams have won nine races for a success rate of 35
Things have been more even in recent times Since 2001 honours have been split 9-9 between home teams and the lsquoinvadersrsquo from down south Last year James Courtney right won both races to be just thet hird man at Queensland Raceway ndash after Craig Lowndes and Garth Tander ndash to clean sweep the wins on a weekend at the track
Garth Tanderrsquos victory in the Saturday race at the Sucrogen Townsville 400 has taken the Toll Holden Racing Team to the brink of its 200th all-time race win
The team has now won 199 races ndash both in the V8 Supercars Championship and at non-cham-pionship events such as the Australian Grand Prix Gold Coast Indy Sandown 500 Bathurst
1000 (in the years where the endurance races were not part of the championship) and New Zealand Sprints
The Toll HRT has won 168 ATCCV8SC races leaving it well clear of Dick Johnson Racing (80) and Triple Eight Race Engineering (69) Holdenrsquos official factory racing team began in 1990 and celebrated its 21st birthday this year

As was the case last year at Queensland Raceway Dunloprsquos Soft Tyre will be the only tyre in use for qualifying and racing ndash and that should bring a smile to the face of championship leader Jamie Whincup
In the eight all-Soft Tyre races held this year (as opposed to races with a mix of Soft and Hard) Whincup has scored an impressive 130 points more than the next best driver Shane van Gisbergen
Minus a disastrous weekend at Hamilton Whincup has not finished outside the top three in the other six Soft tyre races so far this year
Each driver will have seven sets of new Soft tyres to use for the weekend
The Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series is the main support to the Coates Hire Ipswich 300 and it will see the return of Grant Denyer to the development category
The former series regular last competed in 2009 and will drive a Kelly Racing-run Commodore in his return to the series ndash the same car used by Rick Kelly to win in Hamilton earlier this year Denyer and the winner of the 7mate lsquoShannons Supercar Showdownrsquo program will drive the car under a wildcard entry at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 in October
A total of 28 cars have entered for the fourth round of the Fujitsu Series led by Andrew Thompson who holds a 114-point advantage over Jack Perkins
Jim Beam Racingrsquos Steven Johnson has been enjoying a solid year for the famous Ford team and hersquos proven to be the only man to complete every lap of racing so far this year

THE CRAIG LOWNDES GUIDE TO BRISBANEDAYTIME
CRAIG ON PERTH
Brisbane is a fantastic city and really isnrsquot all that far from Queens-land Raceway making it the perfect place to stay during the event The city has plenty of great res-taurants along the river and throughout the CBD The river winds its way through town creating a great atmosphere and viewing areas and two world class sporting facilities mean there is always something on
CRAIG ON BRISBANE CRAIG ON PERTHCRAIG ON QUEENSLAND RACEWAY
Queensland Raceway does tend to get a bad rap but really itrsquos a great circuit for spectators The lack of elevation means that fans can see all the action from almost anywhere From a driverrsquos perspective itrsquos a challenging circuit because itrsquos actu-ally very difficult to pass on While it looks simple on paper itrsquos very difficult to complete a quick lap due in part to the bumpy surface that has developed over the years

QampA with JAMES COURTNEY
Itrsquos been a tumultuous first season at the Toll Holden Racing Team for James Courtney
Having won the 2010 V8 Supercars Championship with Dick Johnson Racing Courtneyrsquos high-profile switch to the factory Holden team garnered much off-season attention which was duly satisfied by a first-up win in Abu Dhabi
Since then however there has been little to write home about for the 31-year-old with a string of on-track clashes resulting in just six top 10 finishes from the first 15 races and a lowly 19th place in the championship standings
Speedcafecomrsquos Grant Rowley spoke to Courtney prior to Queensland Raceway - a vanue which has proven kind to the Gold Coast resident in the past
SPEEDCAFE Queensland Raceway is a track that yoursquove had a lot of success at You won with the Stone Brothers and you dominated last year with Dick Johnson Racing Whatrsquos special about this place for you
JAMES COURTNEY Irsquove managed to win or have a pole position in most years when Irsquove driven there Itrsquos a track that Irsquove had a lot of success at and it has usually been a turning point of my season as well
Irsquom certainly hoping I can continue that trend there
SPEEDCAFE It has been a difficult title defence for you Is this the round where you start to turn it all around
COURTNEY I hope so Wersquove changed quite a few things in the rear of the car The rear wasnrsquot doing what we thought it was and it is all being rectified now
It is good that wersquove had this mid-season break and wersquove been able to have a really good look at it all Wersquore very happy with the finds wersquove made and wersquore quietly confident wersquove found the gains It is definitely going to help us there this weekend
If you look at our results from Townsville in the Sunday race both cars were in the top five until Garthrsquos car had the failure and I had the brain failure The speed was getting there so I think with these couple of little changes wersquore on the right path
SPEEDCAFE You sound optimistic and you do tend to look on the bright side more often than not but has it been frustrating not getting the results you were getting last year
COURTNEY Itrsquos not where I want to be thatrsquos for sure but if I hadnrsquot won the race at the start of the year (at Yas Marina) Irsquod probably be going crazy That result early on keeps me driving for the next one
Now wersquore concentrating on getting the car ready for Bathurst and getting a consistent car and also building towards next year
SPEEDCAFE It sounds very 1980s of you ndash forgetting the championship and building a strong car for Bathurst
COURTNEY The championship done for us really so I just want to get to Bathurst Irsquove been close quite a few times but havenrsquot been able to get it over the line Thatrsquos where our main focus is as well as Homebush
Itrsquos not about collecting championship points for us itrsquos about going out there and getting race wins and building towards next year Therersquos some great news coming up for HRT in the next couple of weeks which both myself Garth and the rest of the team are pretty excited about
SPEEDCAFE Now looking ahead to Queensland Racewayrsquos event therersquos a new Saturday race format What are your thoughts on it
COURTNEY I think itrsquos going to be interesting It will be pretty crazy especially if therersquos a bit of rain I think the format will mix it up
I donrsquot know wersquoll see how it goes but Irsquom happy racing the car more Irsquod rather be there racing it rather than sitting on the sidelines looking at the car I think it will work well for the fans too
SPEEDCAFE Between those two Saturday races is a short 15 minute break ndash like a footy match Do you think you guys should lsquoswap endsrsquo and run the second half in the opposite direction
COURTNEY That would be a cracker Irsquod be up for that No testing just bang straight into it

CIRCUIT INFO
Queensland Raceway was quickly dubbed the lsquoPapercliprsquo because of its basic layout Changing temperatures can make this circuit a nightmare for drivers and engineers as its grip level changes at different times of the day Despite its simple layout it tends to provide entertaining racing with passing chances at turns 1 3 4 and 6 It is also the home test circuit for a large portion of the V8 Supercar Championship field

Races 161718 - Ipswich
TECHNICAL by CAMPBELL LITTLE
Queensland Raceway is a significant unknown for the visiting teams this year after the flooding the circuit experienced last summer
Track condition is always the big talking point at Ipswich and the resurfacing planned for the last off-season obviously didnrsquot happened
The track surface has deteriorated a fair bit over the years but wersquove all got to race on the same surface and make the cars handle it the best we can
Itrsquos always a spirited battle between the local and visiting teams at Winton (the Victorian teamsrsquo test track) and Queensland Raceway It would have certainly helped to have spent time at Queensland Raceway recently to get a set-up
Typically we can go back to most race tracks and not have a bad baseline but this time wersquove really just got to see what happens when we get there
The braking areas at Turn 1 and Turn 3 are very high speed and very bumpy so the challenge for the visiting teams is to find a set-up that works in those areas
The cars bottom out in both braking zones with 40mm of travel in the front Midway through Turn 1 the cars virtually fly as they jump across the road on turn-in which makes for pretty spectacular viewing for the fans
The cars can also bottom out at the rear thanks to the exit kerbs particularly at Turn 2 The left-rear can disappear well into the guard if you run wide there and the tyre can cop a bit of damage from that sort of treatment The exit of Turn 3 used to cause some concerns as well before they took the big kerb out of it
Car set-up is always a compromise no matter where you go and here itrsquos a fine balance If you run the cars

Race Guide
too soft you risk them hitting the ground too hard but fixing that with a harder spring creates a lot of understeer in Turn 3 and 6
New format
Having two short races on the Saturday with a 15 minute service interval is something different for all of us V8 Supercars is obviously trying to mix it up and I think theyrsquoll succeed with that
Whenever they bring in something new there are always a lot of questions The pit facilities at Queensland Raceway arenrsquot quite to the level we see at some of the other circuits so itrsquos an interesting choice of location for this format but wersquoll see how it goes
Therersquos been a lot of discussion about how the service window will be policed and controlled Irsquod hate to see someone given a penalty because one guy walks over the wrong line or something stupid like that
Shorter races
Everyone can afford to be a little bit more aggressive on Saturday with the shorter races both in terms of set-
up and the way the cars are driven
The most wersquore doing on a set of four soft tyres is normally around 85km due to the 75 litre fuel tanks By comparison Saturdayrsquos races are 22 laps each which is only 68 or so kilometres
The break between races will be long enough to throw in a new spring or roll bar as well as a new set of tyres so the relative car performances could be quite different depending on how much people learn in the first heat
Saturday will be very straight forward with one tyre set per race but Sunday could be more interesting Last year Queensland Raceway was one of the few tracks where we had people taking two tyres only during a soft tyre pitstop We saw a couple of teams either doing rears only or just the working side in one of their stops so wersquoll see if that is a strategy that will appear again this weekend
The 200km race on Sunday will be very much like Townsville where wersquore all looking at our last fuel window and how a Safety Car might affect that

DID YOU KNOW
Much is made of Winton and Queensland Raceway being the home test track of teams in the V8 Supercars Championship but lsquohomersquo teams in Queensland have never really dominated at Ipswich
In the 26 races held since the first in 1999 Queensland-based teams have won nine races for a success rate of 35
Things have been more even in recent times Since 2001 honours have been split 9-9 between home teams and the lsquoinvadersrsquo from down south Last year James Courtney right won both races to be just thet hird man at Queensland Raceway ndash after Craig Lowndes and Garth Tander ndash to clean sweep the wins on a weekend at the track
Garth Tanderrsquos victory in the Saturday race at the Sucrogen Townsville 400 has taken the Toll Holden Racing Team to the brink of its 200th all-time race win
The team has now won 199 races ndash both in the V8 Supercars Championship and at non-cham-pionship events such as the Australian Grand Prix Gold Coast Indy Sandown 500 Bathurst
1000 (in the years where the endurance races were not part of the championship) and New Zealand Sprints
The Toll HRT has won 168 ATCCV8SC races leaving it well clear of Dick Johnson Racing (80) and Triple Eight Race Engineering (69) Holdenrsquos official factory racing team began in 1990 and celebrated its 21st birthday this year

As was the case last year at Queensland Raceway Dunloprsquos Soft Tyre will be the only tyre in use for qualifying and racing ndash and that should bring a smile to the face of championship leader Jamie Whincup
In the eight all-Soft Tyre races held this year (as opposed to races with a mix of Soft and Hard) Whincup has scored an impressive 130 points more than the next best driver Shane van Gisbergen
Minus a disastrous weekend at Hamilton Whincup has not finished outside the top three in the other six Soft tyre races so far this year
Each driver will have seven sets of new Soft tyres to use for the weekend
The Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series is the main support to the Coates Hire Ipswich 300 and it will see the return of Grant Denyer to the development category
The former series regular last competed in 2009 and will drive a Kelly Racing-run Commodore in his return to the series ndash the same car used by Rick Kelly to win in Hamilton earlier this year Denyer and the winner of the 7mate lsquoShannons Supercar Showdownrsquo program will drive the car under a wildcard entry at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 in October
A total of 28 cars have entered for the fourth round of the Fujitsu Series led by Andrew Thompson who holds a 114-point advantage over Jack Perkins
Jim Beam Racingrsquos Steven Johnson has been enjoying a solid year for the famous Ford team and hersquos proven to be the only man to complete every lap of racing so far this year
The 17 Falcon driver has completed all 869 laps in the 15 championship races held with Craig Lowndes Shane van Gisbergen and Rick Kelly having completed 868
Sitting eighth in the championship Johnson is only 79 points behind fourth-placed Kelly
Queensland Raceway is the site of Johnsonrsquos last race win in the V8 Supercars Championship ndash 10 years ago he teamed with Paul Radisich to win the 500-kilometre endurance race held at the venue

CIRCUIT INFO
Queensland Raceway was quickly dubbed the lsquoPapercliprsquo because of its basic layout Changing temperatures can make this circuit a nightmare for drivers and engineers as its grip level changes at different times of the day Despite its simple layout it tends to provide entertaining racing with passing chances at turns 1 3 4 and 6 It is also the home test circuit for a large portion of the V8 Supercar Championship field

TECHNICAL by CAMPBELL LITTLE
Queensland Raceway is a significant unknown for the visiting teams this year after the flooding the circuit experienced last summer
Track condition is always the big talking point at Ipswich and the resurfacing planned for the last off-season obviously didnrsquot happened
The track surface has deteriorated a fair bit over the years but wersquove all got to race on the same surface and make the cars handle it the best we can
Itrsquos always a spirited battle between the local and visiting teams at Winton (the Victorian teamsrsquo test track) and Queensland Raceway It would have certainly helped to have spent time at Queensland Raceway recently to get a set-up
Typically we can go back to most race tracks and not have a bad baseline but this time wersquove really just got to see what happens when we get there
The braking areas at Turn 1 and Turn 3 are very high speed and very bumpy so the challenge for the visiting teams is to find a set-up that works in those areas
The cars bottom out in both braking zones with 40mm of travel in the front Midway through Turn 1 the cars virtually fly as they jump across the road on turn-in which makes for pretty spectacular viewing for the fans
The cars can also bottom out at the rear thanks to the exit kerbs particularly at Turn 2 The left-rear can disappear well into the guard if you run wide there and the tyre can cop a bit of damage from that sort of treatment The exit of Turn 3 used to cause some concerns as well before they took the big kerb out of it
Car set-up is always a compromise no matter where you go and here itrsquos a fine balance If you run the cars

Race Guide
too soft you risk them hitting the ground too hard but fixing that with a harder spring creates a lot of understeer in Turn 3 and 6
New format
Having two short races on the Saturday with a 15 minute service interval is something different for all of us V8 Supercars is obviously trying to mix it up and I think theyrsquoll succeed with that
Whenever they bring in something new there are always a lot of questions The pit facilities at Queensland Raceway arenrsquot quite to the level we see at some of the other circuits so itrsquos an interesting choice of location for this format but wersquoll see how it goes
Therersquos been a lot of discussion about how the service window will be policed and controlled Irsquod hate to see someone given a penalty because one guy walks over the wrong line or something stupid like that
Shorter races
Everyone can afford to be a little bit more aggressive on Saturday with the shorter races both in terms of set-
up and the way the cars are driven
The most wersquore doing on a set of four soft tyres is normally around 85km due to the 75 litre fuel tanks By comparison Saturdayrsquos races are 22 laps each which is only 68 or so kilometres
The break between races will be long enough to throw in a new spring or roll bar as well as a new set of tyres so the relative car performances could be quite different depending on how much people learn in the first heat
Saturday will be very straight forward with one tyre set per race but Sunday could be more interesting Last year Queensland Raceway was one of the few tracks where we had people taking two tyres only during a soft tyre pitstop We saw a couple of teams either doing rears only or just the working side in one of their stops so wersquoll see if that is a strategy that will appear again this weekend
The 200km race on Sunday will be very much like Townsville where wersquore all looking at our last fuel window and how a Safety Car might affect that

DID YOU KNOW
Much is made of Winton and Queensland Raceway being the home test track of teams in the V8 Supercars Championship but lsquohomersquo teams in Queensland have never really dominated at Ipswich
In the 26 races held since the first in 1999 Queensland-based teams have won nine races for a success rate of 35
Things have been more even in recent times Since 2001 honours have been split 9-9 between home teams and the lsquoinvadersrsquo from down south Last year James Courtney right won both races to be just thet hird man at Queensland Raceway ndash after Craig Lowndes and Garth Tander ndash to clean sweep the wins on a weekend at the track
Garth Tanderrsquos victory in the Saturday race at the Sucrogen Townsville 400 has taken the Toll Holden Racing Team to the brink of its 200th all-time race win
The team has now won 199 races ndash both in the V8 Supercars Championship and at non-cham-pionship events such as the Australian Grand Prix Gold Coast Indy Sandown 500 Bathurst
1000 (in the years where the endurance races were not part of the championship) and New Zealand Sprints
The Toll HRT has won 168 ATCCV8SC races leaving it well clear of Dick Johnson Racing (80) and Triple Eight Race Engineering (69) Holdenrsquos official factory racing team began in 1990 and celebrated its 21st birthday this year

As was the case last year at Queensland Raceway Dunloprsquos Soft Tyre will be the only tyre in use for qualifying and racing ndash and that should bring a smile to the face of championship leader Jamie Whincup
In the eight all-Soft Tyre races held this year (as opposed to races with a mix of Soft and Hard) Whincup has scored an impressive 130 points more than the next best driver Shane van Gisbergen
Minus a disastrous weekend at Hamilton Whincup has not finished outside the top three in the other six Soft tyre races so far this year
Each driver will have seven sets of new Soft tyres to use for the weekend
The Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series is the main support to the Coates Hire Ipswich 300 and it will see the return of Grant Denyer to the development category
The former series regular last competed in 2009 and will drive a Kelly Racing-run Commodore in his return to the series ndash the same car used by Rick Kelly to win in Hamilton earlier this year Denyer and the winner of the 7mate lsquoShannons Supercar Showdownrsquo program will drive the car under a wildcard entry at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 in October
A total of 28 cars have entered for the fourth round of the Fujitsu Series led by Andrew Thompson who holds a 114-point advantage over Jack Perkins
Jim Beam Racingrsquos Steven Johnson has been enjoying a solid year for the famous Ford team and hersquos proven to be the only man to complete every lap of racing so far this year
The 17 Falcon driver has completed all 869 laps in the 15 championship races held with Craig Lowndes Shane van Gisbergen and Rick Kelly having completed 868
Sitting eighth in the championship Johnson is only 79 points behind fourth-placed Kelly
Queensland Raceway is the site of Johnsonrsquos last race win in the V8 Supercars Championship ndash 10 years ago he teamed with Paul Radisich to win the 500-kilometre endurance race held at the venue

Queensland Raceway does tend to get a bad rap but really itrsquos a great circuit for spectators The lack of elevation means that fans can see all the action from almost anywhere From a driverrsquos perspective itrsquos a challenging circuit because itrsquos actu-ally very difficult to pass on While it looks simple on paper itrsquos very difficult to complete a quick lap due in part to the bumpy surface that has developed over the years

CIRCUIT INFO
Queensland Raceway was quickly dubbed the lsquoPapercliprsquo because of its basic layout Changing temperatures can make this circuit a nightmare for drivers and engineers as its grip level changes at different times of the day Despite its simple layout it tends to provide entertaining racing with passing chances at turns 1 3 4 and 6 It is also the home test circuit for a large portion of the V8 Supercar Championship field

TECHNICAL by CAMPBELL LITTLE
Queensland Raceway is a significant unknown for the visiting teams this year after the flooding the circuit experienced last summer
Track condition is always the big talking point at Ipswich and the resurfacing planned for the last off-season obviously didnrsquot happened
The track surface has deteriorated a fair bit over the years but wersquove all got to race on the same surface and make the cars handle it the best we can
Itrsquos always a spirited battle between the local and visiting teams at Winton (the Victorian teamsrsquo test track) and Queensland Raceway It would have certainly helped to have spent time at Queensland Raceway recently to get a set-up
Typically we can go back to most race tracks and not have a bad baseline but this time wersquove really just got to see what happens when we get there
The braking areas at Turn 1 and Turn 3 are very high speed and very bumpy so the challenge for the visiting teams is to find a set-up that works in those areas
The cars bottom out in both braking zones with 40mm of travel in the front Midway through Turn 1 the cars virtually fly as they jump across the road on turn-in which makes for pretty spectacular viewing for the fans
The cars can also bottom out at the rear thanks to the exit kerbs particularly at Turn 2 The left-rear can disappear well into the guard if you run wide there and the tyre can cop a bit of damage from that sort of treatment The exit of Turn 3 used to cause some concerns as well before they took the big kerb out of it
Car set-up is always a compromise no matter where you go and here itrsquos a fine balance If you run the cars

Race Guide
too soft you risk them hitting the ground too hard but fixing that with a harder spring creates a lot of understeer in Turn 3 and 6
New format
Having two short races on the Saturday with a 15 minute service interval is something different for all of us V8 Supercars is obviously trying to mix it up and I think theyrsquoll succeed with that
Whenever they bring in something new there are always a lot of questions The pit facilities at Queensland Raceway arenrsquot quite to the level we see at some of the other circuits so itrsquos an interesting choice of location for this format but wersquoll see how it goes
Therersquos been a lot of discussion about how the service window will be policed and controlled Irsquod hate to see someone given a penalty because one guy walks over the wrong line or something stupid like that
Shorter races
Everyone can afford to be a little bit more aggressive on Saturday with the shorter races both in terms of set-
up and the way the cars are driven
The most wersquore doing on a set of four soft tyres is normally around 85km due to the 75 litre fuel tanks By comparison Saturdayrsquos races are 22 laps each which is only 68 or so kilometres
The break between races will be long enough to throw in a new spring or roll bar as well as a new set of tyres so the relative car performances could be quite different depending on how much people learn in the first heat
Saturday will be very straight forward with one tyre set per race but Sunday could be more interesting Last year Queensland Raceway was one of the few tracks where we had people taking two tyres only during a soft tyre pitstop We saw a couple of teams either doing rears only or just the working side in one of their stops so wersquoll see if that is a strategy that will appear again this weekend
The 200km race on Sunday will be very much like Townsville where wersquore all looking at our last fuel window and how a Safety Car might affect that

DID YOU KNOW
Much is made of Winton and Queensland Raceway being the home test track of teams in the V8 Supercars Championship but lsquohomersquo teams in Queensland have never really dominated at Ipswich
In the 26 races held since the first in 1999 Queensland-based teams have won nine races for a success rate of 35
Things have been more even in recent times Since 2001 honours have been split 9-9 between home teams and the lsquoinvadersrsquo from down south Last year James Courtney right won both races to be just thet hird man at Queensland Raceway ndash after Craig Lowndes and Garth Tander ndash to clean sweep the wins on a weekend at the track
Garth Tanderrsquos victory in the Saturday race at the Sucrogen Townsville 400 has taken the Toll Holden Racing Team to the brink of its 200th all-time race win
The team has now won 199 races ndash both in the V8 Supercars Championship and at non-cham-pionship events such as the Australian Grand Prix Gold Coast Indy Sandown 500 Bathurst
1000 (in the years where the endurance races were not part of the championship) and New Zealand Sprints
The Toll HRT has won 168 ATCCV8SC races leaving it well clear of Dick Johnson Racing (80) and Triple Eight Race Engineering (69) Holdenrsquos official factory racing team began in 1990 and celebrated its 21st birthday this year

As was the case last year at Queensland Raceway Dunloprsquos Soft Tyre will be the only tyre in use for qualifying and racing ndash and that should bring a smile to the face of championship leader Jamie Whincup
In the eight all-Soft Tyre races held this year (as opposed to races with a mix of Soft and Hard) Whincup has scored an impressive 130 points more than the next best driver Shane van Gisbergen
Minus a disastrous weekend at Hamilton Whincup has not finished outside the top three in the other six Soft tyre races so far this year
Each driver will have seven sets of new Soft tyres to use for the weekend
The Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series is the main support to the Coates Hire Ipswich 300 and it will see the return of Grant Denyer to the development category
The former series regular last competed in 2009 and will drive a Kelly Racing-run Commodore in his return to the series ndash the same car used by Rick Kelly to win in Hamilton earlier this year Denyer and the winner of the 7mate lsquoShannons Supercar Showdownrsquo program will drive the car under a wildcard entry at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 in October
A total of 28 cars have entered for the fourth round of the Fujitsu Series led by Andrew Thompson who holds a 114-point advantage over Jack Perkins
Jim Beam Racingrsquos Steven Johnson has been enjoying a solid year for the famous Ford team and hersquos proven to be the only man to complete every lap of racing so far this year
The 17 Falcon driver has completed all 869 laps in the 15 championship races held with Craig Lowndes Shane van Gisbergen and Rick Kelly having completed 868
Sitting eighth in the championship Johnson is only 79 points behind fourth-placed Kelly
Queensland Raceway is the site of Johnsonrsquos last race win in the V8 Supercars Championship ndash 10 years ago he teamed with Paul Radisich to win the 500-kilometre endurance race held at the venue

Queensland Raceway does tend to get a bad rap but really itrsquos a great circuit for spectators The lack of elevation means that fans can see all the action from almost anywhere From a driverrsquos perspective itrsquos a challenging circuit because itrsquos actu-ally very difficult to pass on While it looks simple on paper itrsquos very difficult to complete a quick lap due in part to the bumpy surface that has developed over the years

CIRCUIT INFO
Queensland Raceway was quickly dubbed the lsquoPapercliprsquo because of its basic layout Changing temperatures can make this circuit a nightmare for drivers and engineers as its grip level changes at different times of the day Despite its simple layout it tends to provide entertaining racing with passing chances at turns 1 3 4 and 6 It is also the home test circuit for a large portion of the V8 Supercar Championship field

TECHNICAL by CAMPBELL LITTLE
Queensland Raceway is a significant unknown for the visiting teams this year after the flooding the circuit experienced last summer
Track condition is always the big talking point at Ipswich and the resurfacing planned for the last off-season obviously didnrsquot happened
The track surface has deteriorated a fair bit over the years but wersquove all got to race on the same surface and make the cars handle it the best we can
Itrsquos always a spirited battle between the local and visiting teams at Winton (the Victorian teamsrsquo test track) and Queensland Raceway It would have certainly helped to have spent time at Queensland Raceway recently to get a set-up
Typically we can go back to most race tracks and not have a bad baseline but this time wersquove really just got to see what happens when we get there
The braking areas at Turn 1 and Turn 3 are very high speed and very bumpy so the challenge for the visiting teams is to find a set-up that works in those areas
The cars bottom out in both braking zones with 40mm of travel in the front Midway through Turn 1 the cars virtually fly as they jump across the road on turn-in which makes for pretty spectacular viewing for the fans
The cars can also bottom out at the rear thanks to the exit kerbs particularly at Turn 2 The left-rear can disappear well into the guard if you run wide there and the tyre can cop a bit of damage from that sort of treatment The exit of Turn 3 used to cause some concerns as well before they took the big kerb out of it
Car set-up is always a compromise no matter where you go and here itrsquos a fine balance If you run the cars

Race Guide
too soft you risk them hitting the ground too hard but fixing that with a harder spring creates a lot of understeer in Turn 3 and 6
New format
Having two short races on the Saturday with a 15 minute service interval is something different for all of us V8 Supercars is obviously trying to mix it up and I think theyrsquoll succeed with that
Whenever they bring in something new there are always a lot of questions The pit facilities at Queensland Raceway arenrsquot quite to the level we see at some of the other circuits so itrsquos an interesting choice of location for this format but wersquoll see how it goes
Therersquos been a lot of discussion about how the service window will be policed and controlled Irsquod hate to see someone given a penalty because one guy walks over the wrong line or something stupid like that
Shorter races
Everyone can afford to be a little bit more aggressive on Saturday with the shorter races both in terms of set-
up and the way the cars are driven
The most wersquore doing on a set of four soft tyres is normally around 85km due to the 75 litre fuel tanks By comparison Saturdayrsquos races are 22 laps each which is only 68 or so kilometres
The break between races will be long enough to throw in a new spring or roll bar as well as a new set of tyres so the relative car performances could be quite different depending on how much people learn in the first heat
Saturday will be very straight forward with one tyre set per race but Sunday could be more interesting Last year Queensland Raceway was one of the few tracks where we had people taking two tyres only during a soft tyre pitstop We saw a couple of teams either doing rears only or just the working side in one of their stops so wersquoll see if that is a strategy that will appear again this weekend
The 200km race on Sunday will be very much like Townsville where wersquore all looking at our last fuel window and how a Safety Car might affect that

DID YOU KNOW
Much is made of Winton and Queensland Raceway being the home test track of teams in the V8 Supercars Championship but lsquohomersquo teams in Queensland have never really dominated at Ipswich
In the 26 races held since the first in 1999 Queensland-based teams have won nine races for a success rate of 35
Things have been more even in recent times Since 2001 honours have been split 9-9 between home teams and the lsquoinvadersrsquo from down south Last year James Courtney right won both races to be just thet hird man at Queensland Raceway ndash after Craig Lowndes and Garth Tander ndash to clean sweep the wins on a weekend at the track
Garth Tanderrsquos victory in the Saturday race at the Sucrogen Townsville 400 has taken the Toll Holden Racing Team to the brink of its 200th all-time race win
The team has now won 199 races ndash both in the V8 Supercars Championship and at non-cham-pionship events such as the Australian Grand Prix Gold Coast Indy Sandown 500 Bathurst
1000 (in the years where the endurance races were not part of the championship) and New Zealand Sprints
The Toll HRT has won 168 ATCCV8SC races leaving it well clear of Dick Johnson Racing (80) and Triple Eight Race Engineering (69) Holdenrsquos official factory racing team began in 1990 and celebrated its 21st birthday this year
15
As was the case last year at Queensland Raceway Dunloprsquos Soft Tyre will be the only tyre in use for qualifying and racing ndash and that should bring a smile to the face of championship leader Jamie Whincup
In the eight all-Soft Tyre races held this year (as opposed to races with a mix of Soft and Hard) Whincup has scored an impressive 130 points more than the next best driver Shane van Gisbergen
Minus a disastrous weekend at Hamilton Whincup has not finished outside the top three in the other six Soft tyre races so far this year
Each driver will have seven sets of new Soft tyres to use for the weekend
The Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series is the main support to the Coates Hire Ipswich 300 and it will see the return of Grant Denyer to the development category
The former series regular last competed in 2009 and will drive a Kelly Racing-run Commodore in his return to the series ndash the same car used by Rick Kelly to win in Hamilton earlier this year Denyer and the winner of the 7mate lsquoShannons Supercar Showdownrsquo program will drive the car under a wildcard entry at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 in October
A total of 28 cars have entered for the fourth round of the Fujitsu Series led by Andrew Thompson who holds a 114-point advantage over Jack Perkins
Jim Beam Racingrsquos Steven Johnson has been enjoying a solid year for the famous Ford team and hersquos proven to be the only man to complete every lap of racing so far this year
The 17 Falcon driver has completed all 869 laps in the 15 championship races held with Craig Lowndes Shane van Gisbergen and Rick Kelly having completed 868
Sitting eighth in the championship Johnson is only 79 points behind fourth-placed Kelly
Queensland Raceway is the site of Johnsonrsquos last race win in the V8 Supercars Championship ndash 10 years ago he teamed with Paul Radisich to win the 500-kilometre endurance race held at the venue

Queensland Raceway does tend to get a bad rap but really itrsquos a great circuit for spectators The lack of elevation means that fans can see all the action from almost anywhere From a driverrsquos perspective itrsquos a challenging circuit because itrsquos actu-ally very difficult to pass on While it looks simple on paper itrsquos very difficult to complete a quick lap due in part to the bumpy surface that has developed over the years

CIRCUIT INFO
Queensland Raceway was quickly dubbed the lsquoPapercliprsquo because of its basic layout Changing temperatures can make this circuit a nightmare for drivers and engineers as its grip level changes at different times of the day Despite its simple layout it tends to provide entertaining racing with passing chances at turns 1 3 4 and 6 It is also the home test circuit for a large portion of the V8 Supercar Championship field

TECHNICAL by CAMPBELL LITTLE
Queensland Raceway is a significant unknown for the visiting teams this year after the flooding the circuit experienced last summer
Track condition is always the big talking point at Ipswich and the resurfacing planned for the last off-season obviously didnrsquot happened
The track surface has deteriorated a fair bit over the years but wersquove all got to race on the same surface and make the cars handle it the best we can
Itrsquos always a spirited battle between the local and visiting teams at Winton (the Victorian teamsrsquo test track) and Queensland Raceway It would have certainly helped to have spent time at Queensland Raceway recently to get a set-up
Typically we can go back to most race tracks and not have a bad baseline but this time wersquove really just got to see what happens when we get there
The braking areas at Turn 1 and Turn 3 are very high speed and very bumpy so the challenge for the visiting teams is to find a set-up that works in those areas
The cars bottom out in both braking zones with 40mm of travel in the front Midway through Turn 1 the cars virtually fly as they jump across the road on turn-in which makes for pretty spectacular viewing for the fans
The cars can also bottom out at the rear thanks to the exit kerbs particularly at Turn 2 The left-rear can disappear well into the guard if you run wide there and the tyre can cop a bit of damage from that sort of treatment The exit of Turn 3 used to cause some concerns as well before they took the big kerb out of it
Car set-up is always a compromise no matter where you go and here itrsquos a fine balance If you run the cars

Race Guide
too soft you risk them hitting the ground too hard but fixing that with a harder spring creates a lot of understeer in Turn 3 and 6
New format
Having two short races on the Saturday with a 15 minute service interval is something different for all of us V8 Supercars is obviously trying to mix it up and I think theyrsquoll succeed with that
Whenever they bring in something new there are always a lot of questions The pit facilities at Queensland Raceway arenrsquot quite to the level we see at some of the other circuits so itrsquos an interesting choice of location for this format but wersquoll see how it goes
Therersquos been a lot of discussion about how the service window will be policed and controlled Irsquod hate to see someone given a penalty because one guy walks over the wrong line or something stupid like that
Shorter races
Everyone can afford to be a little bit more aggressive on Saturday with the shorter races both in terms of set-
up and the way the cars are driven
The most wersquore doing on a set of four soft tyres is normally around 85km due to the 75 litre fuel tanks By comparison Saturdayrsquos races are 22 laps each which is only 68 or so kilometres
The break between races will be long enough to throw in a new spring or roll bar as well as a new set of tyres so the relative car performances could be quite different depending on how much people learn in the first heat
Saturday will be very straight forward with one tyre set per race but Sunday could be more interesting Last year Queensland Raceway was one of the few tracks where we had people taking two tyres only during a soft tyre pitstop We saw a couple of teams either doing rears only or just the working side in one of their stops so wersquoll see if that is a strategy that will appear again this weekend

DID YOU KNOW
Much is made of Winton and Queensland Raceway being the home test track of teams in the V8 Supercars Championship but lsquohomersquo teams in Queensland have never really dominated at Ipswich
In the 26 races held since the first in 1999 Queensland-based teams have won nine races for a success rate of 35
Things have been more even in recent times Since 2001 honours have been split 9-9 between home teams and the lsquoinvadersrsquo from down south Last year James Courtney right won both races to be just thet hird man at Queensland Raceway ndash after Craig Lowndes and Garth Tander ndash to clean sweep the wins on a weekend at the track
Garth Tanderrsquos victory in the Saturday race at the Sucrogen Townsville 400 has taken the Toll Holden Racing Team to the brink of its 200th all-time race win
The team has now won 199 races ndash both in the V8 Supercars Championship and at non-cham-pionship events such as the Australian Grand Prix Gold Coast Indy Sandown 500 Bathurst
1000 (in the years where the endurance races were not part of the championship) and New Zealand Sprints
The Toll HRT has won 168 ATCCV8SC races leaving it well clear of Dick Johnson Racing (80) and Triple Eight Race Engineering (69) Holdenrsquos official factory racing team began in 1990 and celebrated its 21st birthday this year
15
As was the case last year at Queensland Raceway Dunloprsquos Soft Tyre will be the only tyre in use for qualifying and racing ndash and that should bring a smile to the face of championship leader Jamie Whincup
In the eight all-Soft Tyre races held this year (as opposed to races with a mix of Soft and Hard) Whincup has scored an impressive 130 points more than the next best driver Shane van Gisbergen
Minus a disastrous weekend at Hamilton Whincup has not finished outside the top three in the other six Soft tyre races so far this year
Each driver will have seven sets of new Soft tyres to use for the weekend
The Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series is the main support to the Coates Hire Ipswich 300 and it will see the return of Grant Denyer to the development category
The former series regular last competed in 2009 and will drive a Kelly Racing-run Commodore in his return to the series ndash the same car used by Rick Kelly to win in Hamilton earlier this year Denyer and the winner of the 7mate lsquoShannons Supercar Showdownrsquo program will drive the car under a wildcard entry at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 in October
A total of 28 cars have entered for the fourth round of the Fujitsu Series led by Andrew Thompson who holds a 114-point advantage over Jack Perkins
Jim Beam Racingrsquos Steven Johnson has been enjoying a solid year for the famous Ford team and hersquos proven to be the only man to complete every lap of racing so far this year
The 17 Falcon driver has completed all 869 laps in the 15 championship races held with Craig Lowndes Shane van Gisbergen and Rick Kelly having completed 868
Sitting eighth in the championship Johnson is only 79 points behind fourth-placed Kelly
Queensland Raceway is the site of Johnsonrsquos last race win in the V8 Supercars Championship ndash 10 years ago he teamed with Paul Radisich to win the 500-kilometre endurance race held at the venue

THE CRAIG LOWNDES GUIDE TO BRISBANEDAYTIME
CRAIG ON PERTH
Brisbane is a fantastic city and really isnrsquot all that far from Queens-land Raceway making it the perfect place to stay during the event The city has plenty of great res-taurants along the river and throughout the CBD The river winds its way through town creating a great atmosphere and viewing areas and two world class sporting facilities mean there is always something on
CRAIG ON BRISBANE CRAIG ON PERTHCRAIG ON QUEENSLAND RACEWAY
Queensland Raceway does tend to get a bad rap but really itrsquos a great circuit for spectators The lack of elevation means that fans can see all the action from almost anywhere From a driverrsquos perspective itrsquos a challenging circuit because itrsquos actu-ally very difficult to pass on While it looks simple on paper itrsquos very difficult to complete a quick lap due in part to the bumpy surface that has developed over the years

CIRCUIT INFO
Queensland Raceway was quickly dubbed the lsquoPapercliprsquo because of its basic layout Changing temperatures can make this circuit a nightmare for drivers and engineers as its grip level changes at different times of the day Despite its simple layout it tends to provide entertaining racing with passing chances at turns 1 3 4 and 6 It is also the home test circuit for a large portion of the V8 Supercar Championship field

Races 161718 - Ipswich
TECHNICAL by CAMPBELL LITTLE
Queensland Raceway is a significant unknown for the visiting teams this year after the flooding the circuit experienced last summer
Track condition is always the big talking point at Ipswich and the resurfacing planned for the last off-season obviously didnrsquot happened
The track surface has deteriorated a fair bit over the years but wersquove all got to race on the same surface and make the cars handle it the best we can
Itrsquos always a spirited battle between the local and visiting teams at Winton (the Victorian teamsrsquo test track) and Queensland Raceway It would have certainly helped to have spent time at Queensland Raceway recently to get a set-up
Typically we can go back to most race tracks and not have a bad baseline but this time wersquove really just got to see what happens when we get there
The braking areas at Turn 1 and Turn 3 are very high speed and very bumpy so the challenge for the visiting teams is to find a set-up that works in those areas
The cars bottom out in both braking zones with 40mm of travel in the front Midway through Turn 1 the cars virtually fly as they jump across the road on turn-in which makes for pretty spectacular viewing for the fans
The cars can also bottom out at the rear thanks to the exit kerbs particularly at Turn 2 The left-rear can disappear well into the guard if you run wide there and the tyre can cop a bit of damage from that sort of treatment The exit of Turn 3 used to cause some concerns as well before they took the big kerb out of it
Car set-up is always a compromise no matter where you go and here itrsquos a fine balance If you run the cars

Race Guide
too soft you risk them hitting the ground too hard but fixing that with a harder spring creates a lot of understeer in Turn 3 and 6
New format
Having two short races on the Saturday with a 15 minute service interval is something different for all of us V8 Supercars is obviously trying to mix it up and I think theyrsquoll succeed with that
Whenever they bring in something new there are always a lot of questions The pit facilities at Queensland Raceway arenrsquot quite to the level we see at some of the other circuits so itrsquos an interesting choice of location for this format but wersquoll see how it goes
Therersquos been a lot of discussion about how the service window will be policed and controlled Irsquod hate to see someone given a penalty because one guy walks over the wrong line or something stupid like that
Shorter races
Everyone can afford to be a little bit more aggressive on Saturday with the shorter races both in terms of set-
up and the way the cars are driven
The most wersquore doing on a set of four soft tyres is normally around 85km due to the 75 litre fuel tanks By comparison Saturdayrsquos races are 22 laps each which is only 68 or so kilometres
The break between races will be long enough to throw in a new spring or roll bar as well as a new set of tyres so the relative car performances could be quite different depending on how much people learn in the first heat
Saturday will be very straight forward with one tyre set per race but Sunday could be more interesting Last year Queensland Raceway was one of the few tracks where we had people taking two tyres only during a soft tyre pitstop We saw a couple of teams either doing rears only or just the working side in one of their stops so wersquoll see if that is a strategy that will appear again this weekend
The 200km race on Sunday will be very much like Townsville where wersquore all looking at our last fuel window and how a Safety Car might affect that

DID YOU KNOW
Much is made of Winton and Queensland Raceway being the home test track of teams in the V8 Supercars Championship but lsquohomersquo teams in Queensland have never really dominated at Ipswich
In the 26 races held since the first in 1999 Queensland-based teams have won nine races for a success rate of 35
Things have been more even in recent times Since 2001 honours have been split 9-9 between home teams and the lsquoinvadersrsquo from down south Last year James Courtney right won both races to be just thet hird man at Queensland Raceway ndash after Craig Lowndes and Garth Tander ndash to clean sweep the wins on a weekend at the track
Garth Tanderrsquos victory in the Saturday race at the Sucrogen Townsville 400 has taken the Toll Holden Racing Team to the brink of its 200th all-time race win
The team has now won 199 races ndash both in the V8 Supercars Championship and at non-cham-pionship events such as the Australian Grand Prix Gold Coast Indy Sandown 500 Bathurst
1000 (in the years where the endurance races were not part of the championship) and New Zealand Sprints
The Toll HRT has won 168 ATCCV8SC races leaving it well clear of Dick Johnson Racing (80) and Triple Eight Race Engineering (69) Holdenrsquos official factory racing team began in 1990 and celebrated its 21st birthday this year

As was the case last year at Queensland Raceway Dunloprsquos Soft Tyre will be the only tyre in use for qualifying and racing ndash and that should bring a smile to the face of championship leader Jamie Whincup
In the eight all-Soft Tyre races held this year (as opposed to races with a mix of Soft and Hard) Whincup has scored an impressive 130 points more than the next best driver Shane van Gisbergen
Minus a disastrous weekend at Hamilton Whincup has not finished outside the top three in the other six Soft tyre races so far this year
Each driver will have seven sets of new Soft tyres to use for the weekend
The Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series is the main support to the Coates Hire Ipswich 300 and it will see the return of Grant Denyer to the development category
The former series regular last competed in 2009 and will drive a Kelly Racing-run Commodore in his return to the series ndash the same car used by Rick Kelly to win in Hamilton earlier this year Denyer and the winner of the 7mate lsquoShannons Supercar Showdownrsquo program will drive the car under a wildcard entry at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 in October
A total of 28 cars have entered for the fourth round of the Fujitsu Series led by Andrew Thompson who holds a 114-point advantage over Jack Perkins
Jim Beam Racingrsquos Steven Johnson has been enjoying a solid year for the famous Ford team and hersquos proven to be the only man to complete every lap of racing so far this year
The 17 Falcon driver has completed all 869 laps in the 15 championship races held with Craig Lowndes Shane van Gisbergen and Rick Kelly having completed 868
Sitting eighth in the championship Johnson is only 79 points behind fourth-placed Kelly
Queensland Raceway is the site of Johnsonrsquos last race win in the V8 Supercars Championship ndash 10 years ago he teamed with Paul Radisich to win the 500-kilometre endurance race held at the venue

Brisbane is a fantastic city and really isnrsquot all that far from Queens-land Raceway making it the perfect place to stay during the event The city has plenty of great res-taurants along the river and throughout the CBD The river winds its way through town creating a great atmosphere and viewing areas and two world class sporting facilities mean there is always something on
CRAIG ON BRISBANE CRAIG ON PERTHCRAIG ON QUEENSLAND RACEWAY
Queensland Raceway does tend to get a bad rap but really itrsquos a great circuit for spectators The lack of elevation means that fans can see all the action from almost anywhere From a driverrsquos perspective itrsquos a challenging circuit because itrsquos actu-ally very difficult to pass on While it looks simple on paper itrsquos very difficult to complete a quick lap due in part to the bumpy surface that has developed over the years

TECHNICAL by CAMPBELL LITTLE
Queensland Raceway is a significant unknown for the visiting teams this year after the flooding the circuit experienced last summer
Track condition is always the big talking point at Ipswich and the resurfacing planned for the last off-season obviously didnrsquot happened
The track surface has deteriorated a fair bit over the years but wersquove all got to race on the same surface and make the cars handle it the best we can
Itrsquos always a spirited battle between the local and visiting teams at Winton (the Victorian teamsrsquo test track) and Queensland Raceway It would have certainly helped to have spent time at Queensland Raceway recently to get a set-up
Typically we can go back to most race tracks and not have a bad baseline but this time wersquove really just got to see what happens when we get there
The braking areas at Turn 1 and Turn 3 are very high speed and very bumpy so the challenge for the visiting teams is to find a set-up that works in those areas
The cars bottom out in both braking zones with 40mm of travel in the front Midway through Turn 1 the cars virtually fly as they jump across the road on turn-in which makes for pretty spectacular viewing for the fans
The cars can also bottom out at the rear thanks to the exit kerbs particularly at Turn 2 The left-rear can disappear well into the guard if you run wide there and the tyre can cop a bit of damage from that sort of treatment The exit of Turn 3 used to cause some concerns as well before they took the big kerb out of it
Car set-up is always a compromise no matter where you go and here itrsquos a fine balance If you run the cars

Race Guide
too soft you risk them hitting the ground too hard but fixing that with a harder spring creates a lot of understeer in Turn 3 and 6
New format
Having two short races on the Saturday with a 15 minute service interval is something different for all of us V8 Supercars is obviously trying to mix it up and I think theyrsquoll succeed with that
Whenever they bring in something new there are always a lot of questions The pit facilities at Queensland Raceway arenrsquot quite to the level we see at some of the other circuits so itrsquos an interesting choice of location for this format but wersquoll see how it goes
Therersquos been a lot of discussion about how the service window will be policed and controlled Irsquod hate to see someone given a penalty because one guy walks over the wrong line or something stupid like that
Shorter races
Everyone can afford to be a little bit more aggressive on Saturday with the shorter races both in terms of set-
up and the way the cars are driven
The most wersquore doing on a set of four soft tyres is normally around 85km due to the 75 litre fuel tanks By comparison Saturdayrsquos races are 22 laps each which is only 68 or so kilometres
The break between races will be long enough to throw in a new spring or roll bar as well as a new set of tyres so the relative car performances could be quite different depending on how much people learn in the first heat
Saturday will be very straight forward with one tyre set per race but Sunday could be more interesting Last year Queensland Raceway was one of the few tracks where we had people taking two tyres only during a soft tyre pitstop We saw a couple of teams either doing rears only or just the working side in one of their stops so wersquoll see if that is a strategy that will appear again this weekend
The 200km race on Sunday will be very much like Townsville where wersquore all looking at our last fuel window and how a Safety Car might affect that

DID YOU KNOW
Much is made of Winton and Queensland Raceway being the home test track of teams in the V8 Supercars Championship but lsquohomersquo teams in Queensland have never really dominated at Ipswich
In the 26 races held since the first in 1999 Queensland-based teams have won nine races for a success rate of 35
Things have been more even in recent times Since 2001 honours have been split 9-9 between home teams and the lsquoinvadersrsquo from down south Last year James Courtney right won both races to be just thet hird man at Queensland Raceway ndash after Craig Lowndes and Garth Tander ndash to clean sweep the wins on a weekend at the track
Garth Tanderrsquos victory in the Saturday race at the Sucrogen Townsville 400 has taken the Toll Holden Racing Team to the brink of its 200th all-time race win
The team has now won 199 races ndash both in the V8 Supercars Championship and at non-cham-pionship events such as the Australian Grand Prix Gold Coast Indy Sandown 500 Bathurst
1000 (in the years where the endurance races were not part of the championship) and New Zealand Sprints
The Toll HRT has won 168 ATCCV8SC races leaving it well clear of Dick Johnson Racing (80) and Triple Eight Race Engineering (69) Holdenrsquos official factory racing team began in 1990 and celebrated its 21st birthday this year

As was the case last year at Queensland Raceway Dunloprsquos Soft Tyre will be the only tyre in use for qualifying and racing ndash and that should bring a smile to the face of championship leader Jamie Whincup
In the eight all-Soft Tyre races held this year (as opposed to races with a mix of Soft and Hard) Whincup has scored an impressive 130 points more than the next best driver Shane van Gisbergen
Minus a disastrous weekend at Hamilton Whincup has not finished outside the top three in the other six Soft tyre races so far this year
Each driver will have seven sets of new Soft tyres to use for the weekend
The Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series is the main support to the Coates Hire Ipswich 300 and it will see the return of Grant Denyer to the development category
The former series regular last competed in 2009 and will drive a Kelly Racing-run Commodore in his return to the series ndash the same car used by Rick Kelly to win in Hamilton earlier this year Denyer and the winner of the 7mate lsquoShannons Supercar Showdownrsquo program will drive the car under a wildcard entry at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 in October
A total of 28 cars have entered for the fourth round of the Fujitsu Series led by Andrew Thompson who holds a 114-point advantage over Jack Perkins
Jim Beam Racingrsquos Steven Johnson has been enjoying a solid year for the famous Ford team and hersquos proven to be the only man to complete every lap of racing so far this year
The 17 Falcon driver has completed all 869 laps in the 15 championship races held with Craig Lowndes Shane van Gisbergen and Rick Kelly having completed 868
Sitting eighth in the championship Johnson is only 79 points behind fourth-placed Kelly
Queensland Raceway is the site of Johnsonrsquos last race win in the V8 Supercars Championship ndash 10 years ago he teamed with Paul Radisich to win the 500-kilometre endurance race held at the venue

Brisbane is a fantastic city and really isnrsquot all that far from Queens-land Raceway making it the perfect place to stay during the event The city has plenty of great res-taurants along the river and throughout the CBD The river winds its way through town creating a great atmosphere and viewing areas and two world class sporting facilities mean there is always something on
CRAIG ON BRISBANE CRAIG ON PERTHCRAIG ON QUEENSLAND RACEWAY
Queensland Raceway does tend to get a bad rap but really itrsquos a great circuit for spectators The lack of elevation means that fans can see all the action from almost anywhere From a driverrsquos perspective itrsquos a challenging circuit because itrsquos actu-ally very difficult to pass on While it looks simple on paper itrsquos very difficult to complete a quick lap due in part to the bumpy surface that has developed over the years

too soft you risk them hitting the ground too hard but fixing that with a harder spring creates a lot of understeer in Turn 3 and 6
New format
Having two short races on the Saturday with a 15 minute service interval is something different for all of us V8 Supercars is obviously trying to mix it up and I think theyrsquoll succeed with that
Whenever they bring in something new there are always a lot of questions The pit facilities at Queensland Raceway arenrsquot quite to the level we see at some of the other circuits so itrsquos an interesting choice of location for this format but wersquoll see how it goes
Therersquos been a lot of discussion about how the service window will be policed and controlled Irsquod hate to see someone given a penalty because one guy walks over the wrong line or something stupid like that
Shorter races
Everyone can afford to be a little bit more aggressive on Saturday with the shorter races both in terms of set-
up and the way the cars are driven
The most wersquore doing on a set of four soft tyres is normally around 85km due to the 75 litre fuel tanks By comparison Saturdayrsquos races are 22 laps each which is only 68 or so kilometres
The break between races will be long enough to throw in a new spring or roll bar as well as a new set of tyres so the relative car performances could be quite different depending on how much people learn in the first heat
Saturday will be very straight forward with one tyre set per race but Sunday could be more interesting Last year Queensland Raceway was one of the few tracks where we had people taking two tyres only during a soft tyre pitstop We saw a couple of teams either doing rears only or just the working side in one of their stops so wersquoll see if that is a strategy that will appear again this weekend
The 200km race on Sunday will be very much like Townsville where wersquore all looking at our last fuel window and how a Safety Car might affect that

DID YOU KNOW
Much is made of Winton and Queensland Raceway being the home test track of teams in the V8 Supercars Championship but lsquohomersquo teams in Queensland have never really dominated at Ipswich
In the 26 races held since the first in 1999 Queensland-based teams have won nine races for a success rate of 35
Things have been more even in recent times Since 2001 honours have been split 9-9 between home teams and the lsquoinvadersrsquo from down south Last year James Courtney right won both races to be just thet hird man at Queensland Raceway ndash after Craig Lowndes and Garth Tander ndash to clean sweep the wins on a weekend at the track
Garth Tanderrsquos victory in the Saturday race at the Sucrogen Townsville 400 has taken the Toll Holden Racing Team to the brink of its 200th all-time race win
The team has now won 199 races ndash both in the V8 Supercars Championship and at non-cham-pionship events such as the Australian Grand Prix Gold Coast Indy Sandown 500 Bathurst
1000 (in the years where the endurance races were not part of the championship) and New Zealand Sprints
The Toll HRT has won 168 ATCCV8SC races leaving it well clear of Dick Johnson Racing (80) and Triple Eight Race Engineering (69) Holdenrsquos official factory racing team began in 1990 and celebrated its 21st birthday this year

As was the case last year at Queensland Raceway Dunloprsquos Soft Tyre will be the only tyre in use for qualifying and racing ndash and that should bring a smile to the face of championship leader Jamie Whincup
In the eight all-Soft Tyre races held this year (as opposed to races with a mix of Soft and Hard) Whincup has scored an impressive 130 points more than the next best driver Shane van Gisbergen
Minus a disastrous weekend at Hamilton Whincup has not finished outside the top three in the other six Soft tyre races so far this year
Each driver will have seven sets of new Soft tyres to use for the weekend
The Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series is the main support to the Coates Hire Ipswich 300 and it will see the return of Grant Denyer to the development category
The former series regular last competed in 2009 and will drive a Kelly Racing-run Commodore in his return to the series ndash the same car used by Rick Kelly to win in Hamilton earlier this year Denyer and the winner of the 7mate lsquoShannons Supercar Showdownrsquo program will drive the car under a wildcard entry at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 in October
A total of 28 cars have entered for the fourth round of the Fujitsu Series led by Andrew Thompson who holds a 114-point advantage over Jack Perkins
Jim Beam Racingrsquos Steven Johnson has been enjoying a solid year for the famous Ford team and hersquos proven to be the only man to complete every lap of racing so far this year
The 17 Falcon driver has completed all 869 laps in the 15 championship races held with Craig Lowndes Shane van Gisbergen and Rick Kelly having completed 868
Sitting eighth in the championship Johnson is only 79 points behind fourth-placed Kelly
Queensland Raceway is the site of Johnsonrsquos last race win in the V8 Supercars Championship ndash 10 years ago he teamed with Paul Radisich to win the 500-kilometre endurance race held at the venue

CRAIG ON PERTH
Brisbane is a fantastic city and really isnrsquot all that far from Queens-land Raceway making it the perfect place to stay during the event The city has plenty of great res-taurants along the river and throughout the CBD The river winds its way through town creating a great atmosphere and viewing areas and two world class sporting facilities mean there is always something on
CRAIG ON BRISBANE CRAIG ON PERTHCRAIG ON QUEENSLAND RACEWAY
Queensland Raceway does tend to get a bad rap but really itrsquos a great circuit for spectators The lack of elevation means that fans can see all the action from almost anywhere From a driverrsquos perspective itrsquos a challenging circuit because itrsquos actu-ally very difficult to pass on While it looks simple on paper itrsquos very difficult to complete a quick lap due in part to the bumpy surface that has developed over the years

DID YOU KNOW
Much is made of Winton and Queensland Raceway being the home test track of teams in the V8 Supercars Championship but lsquohomersquo teams in Queensland have never really dominated at Ipswich
In the 26 races held since the first in 1999 Queensland-based teams have won nine races for a success rate of 35
Things have been more even in recent times Since 2001 honours have been split 9-9 between home teams and the lsquoinvadersrsquo from down south Last year James Courtney right won both races to be just thet hird man at Queensland Raceway ndash after Craig Lowndes and Garth Tander ndash to clean sweep the wins on a weekend at the track
Garth Tanderrsquos victory in the Saturday race at the Sucrogen Townsville 400 has taken the Toll Holden Racing Team to the brink of its 200th all-time race win
The team has now won 199 races ndash both in the V8 Supercars Championship and at non-cham-pionship events such as the Australian Grand Prix Gold Coast Indy Sandown 500 Bathurst
1000 (in the years where the endurance races were not part of the championship) and New Zealand Sprints
The Toll HRT has won 168 ATCCV8SC races leaving it well clear of Dick Johnson Racing (80) and Triple Eight Race Engineering (69) Holdenrsquos official factory racing team began in 1990 and celebrated its 21st birthday this year
15
As was the case last year at Queensland Raceway Dunloprsquos Soft Tyre will be the only tyre in use for qualifying and racing ndash and that should bring a smile to the face of championship leader Jamie Whincup
In the eight all-Soft Tyre races held this year (as opposed to races with a mix of Soft and Hard) Whincup has scored an impressive 130 points more than the next best driver Shane van Gisbergen
Minus a disastrous weekend at Hamilton Whincup has not finished outside the top three in the other six Soft tyre races so far this year
Each driver will have seven sets of new Soft tyres to use for the weekend
The Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series is the main support to the Coates Hire Ipswich 300 and it will see the return of Grant Denyer to the development category
The former series regular last competed in 2009 and will drive a Kelly Racing-run Commodore in his return to the series ndash the same car used by Rick Kelly to win in Hamilton earlier this year Denyer and the winner of the 7mate lsquoShannons Supercar Showdownrsquo program will drive the car under a wildcard entry at the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 in October
A total of 28 cars have entered for the fourth round of the Fujitsu Series led by Andrew Thompson who holds a 114-point advantage over Jack Perkins
Jim Beam Racingrsquos Steven Johnson has been enjoying a solid year for the famous Ford team and hersquos proven to be the only man to complete every lap of racing so far this year
The 17 Falcon driver has completed all 869 laps in the 15 championship races held with Craig Lowndes Shane van Gisbergen and Rick Kelly having completed 868
Sitting eighth in the championship Johnson is only 79 points behind fourth-placed Kelly
Queensland Raceway is the site of Johnsonrsquos last race win in the V8 Supercars Championship ndash 10 years ago he teamed with Paul Radisich to win the 500-kilometre endurance race held at the venue

THE CRAIG LOWNDES GUIDE TO BRISBANEDAYTIME
CRAIG ON PERTH
Brisbane is a fantastic city and really isnrsquot all that far from Queens-land Raceway making it the perfect place to stay during the event The city has plenty of great res-taurants along the river and throughout the CBD The river winds its way through town creating a great atmosphere and viewing areas and two world class sporting facilities mean there is always something on
CRAIG ON BRISBANE CRAIG ON PERTHCRAIG ON QUEENSLAND RACEWAY
Queensland Raceway does tend to get a bad rap but really itrsquos a great circuit for spectators The lack of elevation means that fans can see all the action from almost anywhere From a driverrsquos perspective itrsquos a challenging circuit because itrsquos actu-ally very difficult to pass on While it looks simple on paper itrsquos very difficult to complete a quick lap due in part to the bumpy surface that has developed over the years

THE CRAIG LOWNDES GUIDE TO BRISBANEDAYTIME
CRAIG ON PERTH
Brisbane is a fantastic city and really isnrsquot all that far from Queens-land Raceway making it the perfect place to stay during the event The city has plenty of great res-taurants along the river and throughout the CBD The river winds its way through town creating a great atmosphere and viewing areas and two world class sporting facilities mean there is always something on
CRAIG ON BRISBANE CRAIG ON PERTHCRAIG ON QUEENSLAND RACEWAY
Queensland Raceway does tend to get a bad rap but really itrsquos a great circuit for spectators The lack of elevation means that fans can see all the action from almost anywhere From a driverrsquos perspective itrsquos a challenging circuit because itrsquos actu-ally very difficult to pass on While it looks simple on paper itrsquos very difficult to complete a quick lap due in part to the bumpy surface that has developed over the years

CRAIG ON PERTH
Brisbane is a fantastic city and really isnrsquot all that far from Queens-land Raceway making it the perfect place to stay during the event The city has plenty of great res-taurants along the river and throughout the CBD The river winds its way through town creating a great atmosphere and viewing areas and two world class sporting facilities mean there is always something on
CRAIG ON BRISBANE CRAIG ON PERTHCRAIG ON QUEENSLAND RACEWAY
Queensland Raceway does tend to get a bad rap but really itrsquos a great circuit for spectators The lack of elevation means that fans can see all the action from almost anywhere From a driverrsquos perspective itrsquos a challenging circuit because itrsquos actu-ally very difficult to pass on While it looks simple on paper itrsquos very difficult to complete a quick lap due in part to the bumpy surface that has developed over the years
