Car Forum / Ford / Ford Falcon / November 2003Bathurst 24 hour - farce!
I'vw only seen the first five minutes of the Channel 7 telecast and it is clearly obvious that the event is a Peter Brock benefit - they are trying to give hime a 10th Bathurst victory. f.cking farcical I say.

Only early hours, lets see what pans out after 24Hrs. for Mr.WifeBasher The Monaro should not even be running, esp. since they canned the limited production edition Look for Porsche 1st at the finish line CDIHL > FF Yes - this was suppossed to be a production car based category. Now that Holden pulled the plug on the 2 door Commodore with the 7 litre Corvette engine, it should not be allowed to race. But instead PROCAR changed the rules to suit Holden. They'll never earn a cent from me - I refuse to attend any races which are run by PROCAR.

But nothing was changed! All made for good television and had the desired result of putting the 427 car back to second place. What a load of sh.t.

Peter > In my mind, gone are the good days of Bathurst the near stock cars, Not just your mind, most that have memory of the early day races agree with that 100% Some use to DRIVE the "race"-car to the track, prepare it and race it, then drive it home,check out the early photos and you can see the plates on them Yeah todays "supercars" have no relation to what we drive, just like the NASCAR's in USA CDIHL > the old > track, never to be repeated even the Cooper S days are sadly missed..... > > Peter > > In my mind, gone are the good days of Bathurst the near stock cars, > > Not just your mind, most that have memory of the early day races agree with that > 100% I agree, they had a physical, but not necessarily a performance, similarity to what you could buy from the dealers. > Some use to DRIVE the "race"-car to the track, prepare it and race it, then > drive it home,check out the early photos [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > > > Peter
