Massive respect to Jack Perkins for all the work done to restore the Castrol 11 Holden. 5.0L V8. Not just the spanner work but sourcing the original parts, the hours on the phone & online. A true labour of love.

I am so glad I was around to watch these cars race. So many great memories of what I consider, real, true Aussie racing. Not the imported nascar clone we now have. Relatable, soul, exciting is what racing should be. God I miss those days..

its relatable if you drive one of those 2 door ball bags that is Supercars today, but yeah I agree with you. As a kid the whole family drove to Bathurst in a car that was on track and then drove home.
@Steve211Ucdhihifvshi2 ай бұрын
was only relatable til 1993. After that it just lost its magic. There was something special about 100% holden and ford.

Wish the loudmouth yobbs in the background would just shut up and let us listen. Such a blast from the past. Skaifey just so full of himself you wanna knock him in the face by accident, Lowndes, so humble down to earth and a total killer on the track, If stuff didnt break, hed be unbeatable in every race. WAs great to see him smashing it back in the falcon.
