Mark Skaife driving Perkins Engineering PE 045 at Winton Motor Raceway 2007 

"Got a notepad?" Love it, great clip.

God I love seeing skaify race! He was a bloody fantastic racing car driver and always will be in my books. Just love it when he’s been at Bathurst and he comes down conrod and goes from 6 to 2nd gear😂 legend❤

English man here ... this was the best era of v8s . I havnt seen it in years now

Love just how good Mark was at setting cars up and jumping in other teams cars to give great feedback

Ah when the cars had proper gear changes. That was a great era of the sport. Keep theses sort of vids coming Jack. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻👍🏻🙃🙃

What a pro, this guy is a legend

Great video. Interesting Skaife was going back & forth from both teams & willing to give comparisons. Old era V8s rock!

Good to see this pop up again. Love Skaife or hate him you can not deny he was excellent at what he did as a race driver. Seeing this kind of thing, regardless of driver, is fascinating stuff.

So refreshing hearing the engine note and not the whine of a transaxle.

I never get tired of seeing that 5th to 2nd shift

Always interesting to hear Skaifey’s feedback on car setup. It seems funny that not much changes from being at a V8 Supercar test day to being out at the kart club. Keep up the great work Jack, it gives a great insight into Perkins Engineering. Also good that the team stayed in the Mallee so to speak.

Skaifey always has some brilliant insight into car setup!

His comment about the throttle is really good. He doesn't want a deadzone.

A true legend of our sport! Just love this guy ever since i met him at Nissan Clayton when i was a young tacker.

Why haven’t I seen this yet?? Never seen anything like this. It’s usually top secret. Thanks very much PE.

Always great to hear skaifeys feedback. Great driver 👍

Legend! Good ol' days!

Jeez that engine sounds good!

A young Barry Ryan on the notepad here

love him or hate him..ya gotta respect his skill behind the wheel...same with Barry with in the pits...

One of the great drivers MS.

Great video, love the feedback

That was a very interesting exchange

Awesome! Would love to see more of these types of videos if you have more. I really enjoyed seeing the behind the scenes and hearing the technical side of racing these cars. I found your channel a while ago and loved the technical info (as well as a the historic twist through the era that I was most obsessed with) was really great, but I got distracted so I've just made it back to binge-watch as many of your episodes as possible! Keep up the good work! Must say while I'm at it. Love your work on the Seven Supercars presentations, you and the whole team do a great job as a team and individually! 👍

I line the first bit of the video, seeing Skaife deliberately manipulating the car not to make it go fast, but rather to see what it does and how it reacts. You can tell he was genuinely trying to help them even though they were technically rivals

I feel like a transition back to "H" pattern gearboxes may go a long way to addressing fans' feelings that the cars no longer represent a "stock" car. If Murphy can do a 2.06 at Bathurst using an "H" pattern box they aren't exactly slow.

Skaifey 🐐

H pattern master

I think skaifey should do a nother Bathurst.

Is that Barry Ryan taking notes ?

🎶🎼🎵👂🏻👂🏻👂🏻👂🏻👂🏻👂🏻👂🏻👂🏻👂🏻

Is that Barry on the notes? 😆

"Car feels good!" "Yeah?" "Bloody oath!" What a legend 😆

Absolute genius and that's from a Ford fan

How cool are gear sticks. Supercars would be idiots to bring in paddles

Sounds ausome!

When skaifey owned HRT ?

Flat shifting @0:52?

THE CAR WAS VE CAR

Larry's cars always sounded lik Vee Dubs that have grown up.

Scaifey definitely knows how to give the engineers feedback..............just needs to figure out how the seatbelts work 🤣🤣🤣

Sounds like a blunt distauted mess
