First Bathurst I watched on TV at 7 years old! My dad had a Sierra Wagon! I want one now!

From memory Gricey was a very popular winner that year. He'd been trying for so long.

The old R31 Skyline looks like a limousine..but boy it was attached to Jim's M3 like a heamoroid. And round the whole lap too 😂

Long live the mighty injected 304,and all the work that the HEC did in developing a great race engine. According to AMC's look into the race development of the motor, the factory team was taking them to almost 9000rpm down Conrod during qualifying. Incredible for a pushrod motor. Incredible to think that over 161 laps, they finished only 1 lap behind the much much more sophisticated Nissan R32,aka Godzilla. Long live Holden,HDT,HSV,HRT and all they did for motorsport in Oz😁👍

Impressive lap considering in the1988 shootout he did a 2:22:47 in the Holden Racing Team VL Walkinshaw. He could build "em" and drive "em" . What a Legend : )

The best days of racing in Australia. All down hill after these days, the cry babies couldn't handle turbos destroying V8's.

That's odd. I saw endless turbo wankbuckets exploding throughout the entire race, Larry's V8 Commodore held up by morons holding up a plastic barrier, 3 V8 Commodores in the top 5 at the end & a V8 Commodore won it. I take it the turbofools were deliberately using smoke signals to talk to their crews? I see the crowd accurately read the Dick Johnson smoke signals & cheered like mad when they saw them.

Can't explain why, but I always liked those white wheels. I met LP at Bathurst in his garage in the late 90s and asked for a photo. He was very gracious. Also was lucky enough to meet Glenn Seton the same year and he was just the nicest bloke. Took us around his garage. What legends those blokes were in their racing days.

I was lucky enough as a young lad to see Jim rally escorts and race saloon cars in NZ, dad took us to race tracks just about every second weekend. Then move to Aus at age 11 to see him race at Lakeside surfers paradise and Bathurst. He's such a talent and such. modest guy. Anyone that disagrees would be a pack of arse holes😂

@channel 7 why you no do epic intros like this anymore? Always gives me chills now when I watch older stuff like this. I mean actual intro gives me tingles. I learnt the other day it's called frisson. It just ha0ppens but it's usually epic music that causes it or good feelings.

In 1991 they actually revved to 9100 rpm in the early parts of the season, later reduced to 8500 rpm, for reliability reasons, but they still sounded like nothing else :) From 1992 and onwards the V8s were all limited to 7500 rpm, and the sound was not the same anymore sadly.
