Sounds awesome. Wow, you made that look hard. I don't know how long you've been driving it for but it looked like your first run. Get your helmet fixed, you spent more time fixing it than changing gears. It's a 4 speed box......use them all. 2nd is not there as an optional extra. Thanks for the clip I sure lived the sound of it.

The push pull steering like a bus is painful to watch. The non breaking then full breaking though the corner so it under steers isn’t making use of the lack of power from the 6 cylinder engine. It should be between 6-8k all the time it’s a race car.

S'noice! Sounds like a 3.08 or maybe a 3.55 diff in this for the day. Defo not the 2.77 Bathurst diff. I ran my LC S-Coupe on the road with a 3.08 diff whilst Dad ran his LC X-U1 with the 2.77 ... I could never ever touch him outside the first 150 mtrs off the lights...not that we'd ever drag each other from the lights around Penrith and St. Mary's... Dad preferred preferred to keep his racing on the 1/4mi ovals; but he might have put me in my place once or twice 😎🍻.

People fail to realise this is a 186/202 ci passenger car motor ! In factory race trim it sat from nearly 7000 rpm for 7 to 9 hours up and down Bathurst, a mountain ! Watching the little Holden six round up 3.1 litre Ford Capris RS 3100 s ( not a easy task they were very fast) is mind blowing , hearing it rev and not break down , it seemed like it could have gone 2000 rpm higher ! This little engine beat 351 Clevelands 4V steel cranked Cleveland's, it beat 350 Ho Chevs and 360 Chryslers ! And won ! From a little non cross flow straight six ! It punched well above its weight !

According to Harry Firth and Peter Brock the XU-1 was driven at Bathurst at 6500rpm, 72 was a wet race where the little Torana had the advantage aswell as less stops for fuel..73 in Group C the XU-1 ran with Webber Carby's but same principle of 6500rpm for economy was used but famously known now that Doug Chivas revved it harder in his stint resulting in the famous pit lane push

Why is this XU-1 faster than it should be? It distorts "historic" racing when you get cars that are 50% more powerful than the HDT Toranas ever were. That engine has to be 325bhp at the flywheel. The factory cars were about 225bhp. It's not an XU-1 and that's not the sound of an XU-1. It's a "special" or Group B sports sedan that looks like a touring car.

This car has all the upholstery..including new hood lining.. headlights and indicators etc.. it has a holden gearbox and diff.. 15in wheels as well so small brakes. Did a 12.3 quarter mile and went through finish in 3rd gear at 115mph. Needs a lower diff to do good drag times !

That was my last Skope classic in the Mk1 Broadspeed Escort even though I had a300 hp cosworth the Torana took me with ease at the hairpin corner, now retired from competition motor sport but always will love the Skope weekend, also Phil McNabb’s mk2 Zackspeed is no slug same Motor as mine. Great memories.
