I didn’t realize DeTomaso made cars all the way till the 90s. The Pantera 90 Si was a completely new Marcello Gandini design with a tubular frame instead of a monocoque, and I am in LOVE with it.

The 90 Si was also the first DeTomaso with a fuel-injected Ford V8 engine (this one was retromodded with a carbureted unit). The interior was largely the same design they’ve always used from the 70s, with better switches and an A/C panel taken from Maserati (which DeTomaso owned at the time). Check out that vertically-mounted radio. Hilarious.

There were only 41 cars made, of which two were crash-tested for certification, and one was kept by the DeTomaso company. So realistically, 38 undamaged cars are in circulation.

Heavy rain and standing/running water on the #F1 track at Albert Park saw the #Supercars sprint race doing 3 laps behind the safety car, before the race was red flagged (suspended).

A gap in the rain is expected, but there is little chance of getting racing in with the remaining 10-15 minute race window 😟
NB as expected, the Supercars race has been abandoned.

Oh, and the seagulls have joined the ducks in the infield area 😲

…I don’t understand at all how you win the Supercars championship this year.

And this comes after watching a two-minute explanation of how it works.

I think they’ve now ripped off NASCAR’s Race for The Chase for The Cup for The Quest for The Thing???

Also the Parts Bin TT Trophy is back??

Cool guys. The old points thing was already just this side of meaningless so I look forward to it being even more so.

This weekend was the #Adelaide 500 - the final races of the V8 #Supercars championship. Congratulations to the winner (I won't spoil it just in case). It was the 25th time the event has been held. I'm not sure if there was a #medallion available this weekend to commemorate that (please let me know!) but here is one from 1990 from the 500th Formula 1 Grand Prix on parts of the same street circuit.
