The grid for the 2011 Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000 has been set following this afternoon’s Top 10 Shootout.
Rain part-way through the one-at-a-time run-off has seen Greg Murphy take a surprise pole position in his #11 Pepsi Max Crew Commodore.
Alongside Murphy on the front-row of the grid for The Great Race will be factory Ford driver Will Davison (Trading Post Racing Falcon).
