TV producers take note. This is how to televise a race. No commentators talking over a beautiful sounding engine. In car camera the telementary and pointing out the front. I think they should revert back to the old conrod straight for these guys, that is, no chase. I would love to see them go back to the old endurance racing with no full course yellow. Great to see a large variety of cars too.

I love the idea but you know what happens when you get the aero package wrong down Conrod?

Thanks for posting - great video!! I’m a Holden fan and love the masters and you have turned out fabulous looking and sounding XE Falcon - hats off to you…at the end of Conrod straight on lap 1 it looked like JB was driving the widest Torana on earth! This class need to be the future of Aussie V8 racing - give us something to watch.

Good job keeping your composure after having to regain so many positions in the race. I wish this series was in the United States as it is definitely an exciting thing to watch. Who knew you could make such big cars handle so well around a circuit track. But you Aussies are just a little crazy and that's got to help. Keep up the good work and please keep posting videos.

Awesome in car. Amazed at its outright top speed and acceleration. This car seemed much faster than the others just tricky to keep corner speed high following other cars that are slower. It looks really loose at high speed over those humps on the back and mountain straights. Some of the slower lap traffic...wow...the closure rate is very high. I hope they have someone on coms telling them you're coming and to get off the racing line.

Cheer, Matty - yes we had a new 3 link rear suspension setup that was a little short of testing given the time to ship cars to Aus, we didn't have enough parts to change so made do with what we had. Next time we bring her to the mountain we will have a better handle on the ideal setup for sure ;-)
