JUNE 2010 : We've been having fun a lot of fun at Eastern Creek lately. We did find ourselves swapping between the wets and the slicks at our most recent event last week on 27th May, but the wet conditions didn't stop Mal and Jose (Fernandez) going side-by-side through turn one a few times. With KB (Kevin Burton) hot on their heels in the ex-Alan Jones Falcon. Mal of course insists on making gestures out the window at the other drivers when he's in front. Naturally some customers had suitably stunned looks on their faces. That's what we like to see! Our new video setup looks good too - we now show various instruments on your customer DVDs - speedo, G-Force, track map, plus of course the face-cam and forward-cam. It's all part of the Supercar Experience!

MAY 2010 : Mal's just back from the Nurburgring 24-hour race in Germany. His seventh appearance in a row. It's a sad thing (or maybe not) but the big pink Aussie Commodore Supercar has as big a fan base in Germany as is does here. Just a sign of the times I guess. But this year Mal didn't take the Commodore, which wasn't back from Dubai in time. So just for a change he drove the SR Motorsport Subaru Impreze STi, which was quite a little rocketship, and within 30 seconds a lap of the Commodore's times. With regular drivers Mike Rimmer and Peter Venn, Mal finished 39th overall (from 209 starters). Not too shabby!

NOVEMBER / DECEMBER 2009 : The time is rapidly approaching when Oran Park will shut its gates. We will miss the place! The Supercar Experience obviously needs to use other venues, and for the moment that means returning to Eastern Creek Raceway as the primary, but not necessarily only, venue in 2010. We're kicking off with a bang and some exciting specials at the March 10th event, so make sure you book early. Eastern Creek does provide some advantages over our much-loved Oran Park, namely - a longer ride, much longer straight, faster speeds everywhere and 12 corners per lap rather than just 7. We'll have to change our diff ratios! We will still be running the cars side-by-side and nose-to-tail, so we're sure you're going to enjoy the ride. Make sure you book early!

NOVEMBER 2008 : Plans are taking shape for Mal's return to Dubai for the 24-hour race there on January 10th/11th 2009. The container is packed, the drivers are getting excited and we're looking forward to another visit to the Arabian Gulf. Maybe Mal will get a start in the Chevrolet Lumina ("SS Commodore to you and me") celebrity/invitational production car race again. Actually he may not get an invite - he cleaned up last time and possibly put a few noses out of joint.

But the big V8 Supercar Commodore always attracts plenty of attention, and will be up against the cream of Europe's crop. No doubt there will be press releases to follow.

31 MAY 2008 :Mal Rose with Team Mirage Australia in Germany 2008

On For the fifth year in a row, Mal and the boys returned to Germany for another grueling International Endurance event - once again at the famous Nurburgring.
