Ok, so it's a FORD and it's got a carby, but this classic car race is worth watching. In car view, no commentary, just this XY Falcon wasting everyone in the field. I think it may have been the only V8 car in the whole line up (why did he start last anyway).

That's some pretty skilled driving. Lots of big heavy cars with average suspension and worse brakes..... Takes me back to watching the Hardie-Ferodo 500 when I was growing up. Such great memories.

Wow, that is a trip back in time... :doh2::doh2:
a few Cortina's, EH's, a Valiant, and a Galaxie (not to mention the D-type and the Sunbeam)...
but amazingly no Monaro's, no Torana's, no other XW/XY Falcons.
The XY driver is certainly skilled and brave to be able to thread his way thru the pack without hitting anyone :cheers:
Mt. Panorama is the most ultimate expression of Holden vs Ford rivalry anywhere in the world :hihi:
Too bad about the kink near the end of Conrod.

Feel like I was playing GTR Legends watching that video. At 2:08 I was like oh no, he's going to hit the wall, then realized it's right hand drive.
