And id have to say Darryl Eastlake was and still the goat of Motorsport commentary so exciting same as Michael Schiavello with fight sports
Omg how i miss watching this back in the day than you
Was that a historic permit err punch Tony ? 😂
How good is Darryl Eastlake? Rest well big man.
The goat of commentary
There use to be a 300 km speed sign down the Chase in doing 303 km will he get a speeding fine ? Only Asking , Cheers .
Is there a full version of this round available?
Absolutely awesome… and braking so late…
300 kmh flat through the chase that’s crazy I love these AMG Mercs
Why they diched the Utes for those lumbering 4x4 elephants is a mystery
Nobody has even come close to the outright lap record held by Jenson Button 148 in the McLaren F1
The PlayStation 2, the Xbox and the GameCube is the best generation of console gaming in the early to the mid 2000s
Murphs lap of the God's still my fav
Awesome❤
The corsair a great car looked better in blue black
A different class but good to see the Mercs get this. A 220SE won class B in the 1961 race (at the Island) driven by Jane and Firth but it would be 14 years later before starting at Bathurst.
The AMG GT3 lacks the conrod straight top speed of the Nissan GTS-T driven by the Sheriff where he was caught at close to 330 km/h.
Thanks for this video looks amazing fantastic driving wish I was there
lets see how he does in a crowd
Did they ever release what the f1 car did it in?
Jules Gounon. Legend 👍
Still not as quick as Brocky 🇦🇺
Gee. Never knew this ad existed. Mark Skaife was pretty much in his element there. Every Xbox enthusiast at the time this ad first aired would've been itching to get their hands on that particular Xbox console, the game and Mark Skaife's book he brought out at that time. Those who were Holden fans and indeed Mark Skaife fans of course. Pretty good ad. I'm guessing its from the mid to late 2000s.
This ad aired during the Bob Jane T-Marts 1000 back in October 2002 on Channel 10
@@jackbollingmoore6113 Ah righto. Thanks for the info. 2002 makes sense because HRT was on a high and had a string of Bathurst wins in the lead up and possibly including the 2002 race. HRT had great seasons in general around that time. No wonder the ford teams were under pressure.
Wow! Not slow in a straight line, my last bike was a ZX14 and that's very comparable, but the corner-speed it can carry! The way it gets up and across and then down the mountain! That's awesome! You're coming out of Reid Pk into Deer Pk and on to McPhillamy and you're over 200 km/h all the way through there! You've got to be pulling 2g of lateral all the way through there to be going that fast! That means sticky tyres and lots of downforce. It looks like a sedan car, but it doesn't drive like one. It drives like a full ground-effect car. Sedan cars do not make between 2 and 3g of lateral at 200 km/h. V8 souper-cars do that, with the big wing thing under the engine, but this is even more striking.
Was that quicker than Tom Walkinshaw in 85 with the XJS Jaguar ?
6.2liter engine doing 7800rpm. Crazy!
great time
F1 did the fastest lap at Mt P if we are just comparing lap times.
Opel/Vauxhall car owned by GM of Detroit wins Aussie rally using the biggest amount of cubic $$$.
so many of these cars still running today
i miss the HOLDENS AND FORD FALCONS
Great stuff now please upload those 1979 ATCC races you have locked away..😊
It’s not a gt3 spec car though, still insane but
Was this a non-compliant GT3 that had no BOP and fitted with DRS?
5ltr Iron Lion Correct ?
No, Chev with injection.
That is a pretty small field, 8 cars? 6 of those were way off the pace.
Because, a lot like rock music, authors, poets and artists, we need our heroes, people we look up to and admire based on exceptional talent, skill or achievement. Today in Australian motorsport, the Supercar field is represented by kids straight out of go-carts or Toyota 86 that have no track record. Most have never won a Championship, a round, a race, or had a pole position or even a fastest lap. They turn up, do a season or two, and when daddy runs out of money, they disappear, to be replaced by the next young Neddy Nobody.
Great archive footage of the 1979 Repco reliability trial finish at the Melbourne showgrounds. 45 years on and most people from that era still talk about that event and reflect on how tough it was and how many factory teams succeeded. Clearly Holden was the winner there. 3 VB Commodores manged to fill the podium. Wonder whatever happened to those three cars and whether or not they still exist? They're a very important part of our motorsport history and in fact the history of our passion for cars. Interesting to know what became of those three Commodores.
All three Commodores still exist. The no. 05 Commodore is in the National Motor Racing Museum at Bathurst. The other two cars are privately owned. Both of them were used in a few rallies and events after the Repco Trial, but sat in storage for many years until being rediscovered and restored. The no. 17 Commodore went in the 40th anniversary Repco Retrial in 2019.
@@cannedworms1814 Ah righto fair enough. That's good to hear. Yeah I went to the national racing museum in Bathurst a few years back. I think it was 2018 I went. It would've been there then but I don't recall seeing it. It's a bloody good museum. I'll have to try and go there again someday. Maybe when I'm at the Bathurst 1000 event I might try and call in there if and when I have time. It'd be pretty busy at that museum I'd imagine during Bathurst weekend.
The Vauxhall. What shame bullshit event. Reliability they replaced everything in Brocks about 5 times.
The most misrepresented win in a Morsport event in this country. How many struts gearboxes axle bearings and diffs replaces. Oh yes Commodore wins the Repco "reliability " trial....not
Strewth, and I thought Murphs 2:06.8594s was quick. To put it in perspective, the Mercedes AMG GT3 would lap Greg Murphy every 12 laps.
They missed our car. Not sure why. Maybe because we were at the other end of the field, like 87th, BUT WE FINISHED!!
Without the factory backing
Well Holden just had to win didn't they. With a crew that big offering ground and air support following the initial huge cash input from Holden if they failed the embarrasment would have been massive.
Greatest driver ever - the Moff is the GOAT.
Have you got any footage of the factory entered Porsche 924 that finished 9th? Im currently restoring it
Good stuff now can you please upload those 1979 ATCC races you have hidden away from the world 😊
not sure DRS is a good thing for GT3.. make it cheaper
My old man is in their somewhere - was a crew guy with Phil Scott on the Audi team.
Barry Ferguson had the win in the bag but followed team orders.
