I remember this. Skaife got out of his car and was fist pumping the air, and as Ingall drove past he pretended to swerve and run him over,lol. Then as Ingall went past the HSV pit-crew he gave them the Bird, something like that.

I remember Skaiffe went to the stone brothers pit crew and went nuts at them too.
There was a time when I couldn't stand Skaiffe, but then when Ingall won the supercars season years later I remember skaiffe wen't and shook his hand and congratulated Ingall on his win and I realised that Skaiffe wasn't as arrogant as I first thought.

This was back when I found the V8 Supercars entertaining, and would watch as many of the races as I could. Nowadays I only watch Bathurst. This little outburst by Skaife was one of the highlights, I remember this fondly!

never had much time for Ingall ... Enforcer? ok, if enforcer means 'gets impatient so punts the car in front off the track' ...

Skaife didn't exactly give him 'racing room', and Rusty was WELL past the 'B' pillar.
'Crowding' (i.e. Skaife pushing Rusty's BA off the track) is now an offence....... Are you a HRT man???

There were some photoshopped pics of the whole thing going around the forum at the time of Skaife holding a Ford flag, good for a laugh if anyone has them...
