as at the Rare Spares VIP night,
he liked the RAT Torana idea. Mad he Said.

Proper car racing, RIPPER!
Will we see this race on TV or will we need Pay TV to see it as well?
Not happy

Looking forward to seeing Gary's SLR rip around Winton with JB behind the wheel & I hope it gets some good air time as long as channel 10 haven't F##ked that up as well.

The fist round was Foxtel so I would say it's gone from free to air forever. It seems if you don't have Foxtel and like Motorsport your stuffed.

They must have allowed concessions in gearbox and diff for a Torana to ever be competitive!
Channel 10 hasn't stuffed up coverage, any sport needs to get the best return for its TV coverage rights and the best money comes from Pay TV. That is why V8 Supercars are on Pay TV as the best $ return for them. NRL is the same, most games are on Foxtel although you get a few on Free to Air. Netball ANZ Championship is the same as well, with only one game free to air each week. Most of the better TV shows are now first on Foxtel as well.

Maybe they allowed the adoption of the A9X diff and gearbox options.

Isn't that why they were homologated in the first place ?
Have you seen what gearboxes the Mustangs etc. are allowed to run. AFAIK they run modern 5-speeds.
Every 'formula' has it's dramas.

Their V8 Supercar coverage is crap.... They could edit it a lot better yel327
No doubt. They probably paid so much for the rights they can't afford to cover it properly!

I'm pretty sure they have a cut off date of 1974-ish but allowed the scoop last year.Why can't the Torana's run with flares fitted? Having bigger boots under it would compensate for having to use the 308 rather than a 350 or 351.

5 litre Holden or Chev for the Toranas.

275s on 10 in rims? They must be doing a fair bit of work to the tubs.
