@perkinsengineering it really is. I remember going to as many rounds as I could back then, amaroo, oran park , eastern creek, Bathurst. I remember getting told off by Larry for taking pictures under the cars as they were coming out of the truck at Eastern Creek the first year Russell was full time and Russell having a brake explode coming into turn one in what I think was the 95 Bathurst car. Oran park and amaroo were always great for spectators because you could get right up to the cars.

Jack, you yourself are a true winner in your own right! No matter whats goin on in that workshop, it must truly be the best atmosphere 💯 spending the time with your old man ! Always had a soft spot watching your dad as a kid, and as i got older, and learnt to appreciate more of went into making the cars a winning component of the team, i really came to appreciate Larry's engineering background, and the way he built and ran his team.. It was a different insight into the class, that didnt come from anyone else 😊 I'm 40 now, still trying to embrace the new cars and generation of supercar drivers, i guess you always love what you grew up on?

You could see it in Larry's smile, that first minute transported him back 30 years to his relative youth, then his brow started to furrow as he went back 30 years and a few days to the Bathurst pit and was listening to every tick, whine and whirr before heading out on the warm up lap. He seemed to relax a bit towards the end, so that was good to see, maybe it was the sweet revving sounds bringing back sweet memories.

They would’ve been on it when they ran it in Holden configuration unless the customer/lease engine at the time was still fitted with the GM cast ones. The fiberglass rockers didn’t get past prototype stages in Chev configuration as they weren’t strong enough to hold the oil squirter rail and seal properly with oil.

Haha yeah we had an issue with the throttle cable matching the PE part drawing but not quite working properly in the car. The actual pedal is just a GM road car one with some slight mods for throttle ratio

Always good when they fire up, better than having to whip the plugs out to check for spark lol

You guys need to make more medium and large hooodies and T shirts. Looks like you'd make a fortune in those sizes. And I'd buy one of each too if they were available....

Yeah it’s always tough, we get lots of requests for the big boy sizes but they end up sitting on the shelf. Always try and order the right amount without wasting money and generally re-invest in more stock or different styles

Special man and special car, Im a Ford fan, but this goes to show Larry's engineering nouce. When he paired up with Dick in the Greens Tuf Mustang you could see the difference Larry made to the setup and performance of that car, a true genius
