  • The 1971 XY GTHO Falcon was one of Ford's and Australia's most iconic Muscle Cars of the period, with fierce competitors from General Motors Holden's XU1 Torana and Chrysler Australia's E49 Charger. Today's Group Nc Historic Touring Car motorsport category emulates Australia's Improved Touring Car and Series Production Car categories of the 60s and 70s, of which also inherently includes American derived cars similar to those raced in the USA Trans-Am and Nascar series during the same period such as the Boss Mustang, Z28 Camaro and Ford Galaxie. The ever-popular Gulf Western Oil Touring Car Masters series also shares DNA with this category. These iconic days of racing graced our race tracks, setting a path for what is now our mainstream premier racing category hear in Australia known as Supercars, having stemmed from the original V8 Supercars Series created in the early 90s. The difference today is that the latter shares little with its production car counterparts, where back in these early days your could virtually walk into your local car dealership and buy what was raced.

    No doubt about it...these cars represent the best era of Aussie motor racing. No computers...and no mention of that individuality-killing word "parity". Just real and raw. Great one Glenn.

    There has been nothing like them. Modern racing is boring. Same engines, transmissions, suspension, brakes. Taking Friday off year 12 to watch the fabulous Coca-Cola Boss 302 Mustang, GTHO's, GTR-XU1's and the 265 Hemi E38 R/T's thunder past the grandstand on open pipes was an education in itself.

    Here in the USA where most of these cars came from they polish them and sit around in lawn chairs and look at them. Got to love those Ausies for actually racing them.

    • @gazza9481
      @gazza9481 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      The only cars from the USA in this race were the Mustangs and the Comaros, the rest are AUSTRALIAN muscle cars, the Holden Monaro, Valiant Charger, GTHO Ford, Holden Torana are Aussie designed and built here. The Alfa and the Cortina were italian and British respectively.So not wanting to start an argument with you William, but MOST of these cars are Aussie Muscle, not USA muscle.

    The Chargers definitely looked the best on the track, superb styling - closely followed by the Mustangs. But I'm biased . The Falcons Monaro and Torana just don't look as good.

    • @GlennEverittMasterofMachines
      @GlennEverittMasterofMachines  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We generally call it Historic racing here in Aus, and in US many call it Vintage racing. At the end of the day the term Vintage can be applied to any era if it was long ago.
