Faster than a speeding bullet. More powerful than a locomotive. Able to leap gravel traps in a single bound.
Look! Up in the sky. Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it’s Murph Man.
Yes, Murph Man – a strange V8 Supercar driver from another country who went to China with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men.

Murph Man, who can change the course of races, bend sheet metal in his bare hands and who, disguised as Greg Murphy, a mild-mannered driver for the great V8 Supercar team Super Cheap Auto Racing, fights a never-ending battle for pole positions, race wins and the V8 Supercar title…

Having spun a web around his rivals in his Spiderman car when he won Bathurst last October, Greg Murphy is again finding himself aligned with one of his favourite superheroes, this time Superman after Murphy’s Super Cheap Auto Racing Commodore took to the skies like the man of steel in race two at the recent round in Shanghai, China.

But unlike Bathurst where good prevailed over evil, the Shanghai International Circuit’s now-notorious gravel trap proved to be Murphy’s kryptonite, inflicting serious damage to his car and immediately ending his race.

you can just imagine if they were on michelins rather than dunlops, ol bradley jones would be getting called the michelin man for all the rolling he's done

yeah im really surprised the car was driveable, let alone competitive with the shock that wouldve given the body. you mightve heard ambrose complaining about a bent chassis rail in Pukekohe earlier, and that was costing him about 0.5s a lap or so but when the rain came it masked that......testament to the strength of the roll cage design i suppose
