THE GREAT V8 war is set to continue with Ford announcing it will continue one of the great Australian sporting rivalries by taking the fight to Holden for at least another year.
On another day of mountain madness at the Bathurst 1000, both Holden and Ford fans slapped skin, raised beers, and flew flags on the heaving hill after Ford Australia president Bob Graziano announced the famous car manufacturer had signed a new deal to keep the age old war raging.
Even Holden fans clapped and cheered as Ford ended months of speculation they would quit the sport by announcing a new sponsorship deal with Ford Performance Racing.
"You need someone to hate,'' said one of the thousands draped in red.
Knowing that the war fought between Bathurst legends like Peter Brock and Dick Johnson would continue sparked a V8 party with another bumper Bathurst crowd ending the brief moment of unity when Holden's Scott McLaughlin roared out of pit lane to begin the top-ten shootout.
The grid girls, garages and pluto pups were ignored for 45 minutes as the V8 Supercars blasted down Conrod Straight at nearly 300k/ph attempting to set the quickest time and score pole position for today's Bathurst 1000.
Earlier in the day Casey Stoner was claimed by the mountain with the two time Moto-GP world champion smashing into a concrete wall in a crash that ended his dream of winning a Dunlop Series race at Bathurst.
The two wheeled legend was coming fourth and was on his way to his first V8 podium.
And it wasn't just V8 rookies that were bending metal. Bathurst veteran Glenn Seton had hearts fluttering when he scrapped his way down the mountain in a Touring Car Masters race.
