No.9: A wheely big problem, Bathurst 2005

It was a cool morning that greeted the field on the morning of Bathurst 2005, but Lowndes was running hot.

On pole by three tenths of a second, he streeted the field at the start of the race, setting a scorching pace as he built up a solid margin to the rest.

It all turned to dust early, though.

Amid his charge, Lowndes ran the No.888 Falcon slightly too wide on the run up to Reid Park and broke its rear suspension. His Triple Eight crew fixed the car and sent him back out, but the race was lost.
