Yeah. Probably used Jenson Button's F1 lap to make the vid clip under 2 mins!

I played the V8 Supercars game a helluvalot at one stage and it was eerie watching the big race after that. I knew every corner. I've also driven the track a number of times.. bit disappointing having to stick to the speed limit as well as the left hand side of the road! :D
Great detail in that video too, Diesel. Surprised to see that even the power poles lined up with the game graphics.

They have altered that track a bit over the years, especially to suit the V8 supercars (you know those purpose built race-cars that are made to resemble the Australian road cars?). The dippers are definitely more sedate nowadays.
