Group A Classic Vol 3 -
Three of the best from a golden era of
Australian motorsportAustralian touring car racing boomed in the 1980s
on the back of the international Group A rulebook that saw Ford, Nissan,
Holden, BMW, Volvo, Toyota and many other manufacturers go
head-to-head.On this very special Seven Sport Magic Moments of
Motorsport release we rewind back to take in some of the great races
from this period of the sport. First up is Round 9 of the 1986
Australian Touring Car Championship at Winton Motor Raceway in northeast
Victoria.
The penultimate round of that years title chase, this Group A
Classic featured plenty of action between the Nissan Skylines of George
Fury and Gary Scott (who won but was later excluded for a brake
irregularity), the BMW of Jim Richards (who inherited the road when the
Nissan was removed from the results) and the Volvos of Robbie Francevic
and John Bowe.Then we head across to New Zealand to take in the action
of the Nissan-Mobil 500 endurance race on the streets on the waterfront
of Wellington.
This race saw Peter Brock and Allan Moffat clinch their
second straight win in the Kiwi classic, however it turned out to be the
last time a Holden Dealer Team car claimed victory before Brock and
Holden had a very public divorce only weeks later. We jump ahead to 1990
to round out this release to Round 6 of the 1990 ATCC at Mallala in
South Australia.This marked the debut of the potent Nissan GT-R in the
hands of Mark Skaife but old faithful Colin Bond chalked up a win in his
Caltex Sierra despite the presence of the new Japanese supercar. As a
special bonus we have also included the 1988 AMSCAR Series final round
from Amaroo Park as eventual champion Tony Longhurst and his Sierra
tackles a horde of challengers from this sadly now defunct circuit. This
is a special release of fans of touring car racing from the 1980s with
some real gold from the 7 Sport archive.
