Last time I watched the Bathurst 1000 was with legends like Peter Brock (King of the Mountain) and Craig Lowdnes in cars like the Ford Falcon V8 that the main public used, such good times then.

Jamie Whincup deserves a mention also.

Peter Brock’s main adversary was Allan Moffat who drove for Ford.

I was, and still am, a huge fan of Moff. He’s unfortunately not very well, suffering with dimensia.


Qualifying is on now!

Getting dementia is terrible, making you forget things. I see the Sierra Cosworth model of that what he drove, those cars especially the RS500 were going for silly money a few years ago and prices have stabilised and come down some now.
