One Lap Race of Bathurst - Speed Comparison between Holdens - Peter Brock Mark Skaife
A one lap race at Mount Panorama, Bathurst between a 1979 Holden A9X Torana, a 2004 Holden VZ SS Commodore & a 2004 Holden VZ Commodore V8 Supercar.
It's interesting to see how far racing technology has progressed.
The V8 Supercar happens to be the same car as my 1/6th Radio controlled version, as featured in some of my other clips.
Tribute to Peter Brock
I have seen many great tributes to Peter Brock and have been meaning for some time to put together one of my own, and here it is finally. Yes, my blood runs blue, I am a die hard Ford fan, but Peter did what no other driver has ever been able to do - he brought together Holden and Ford fans, united in grief at his loss. Please feel free to rate and comment but derogatory comments will be deleted immediately so don't bother.
Background music is "Is this the end" by Creed and no I don't own the copyright to the music or any pictures, but they have been used simply to honour this truly great individual.
Peter Brock Bathurst winner, sideways in the '84 HDT VK Holden at Goodwood Festival of Speed 05
Some of my old footage I found of 'King of the Mountain' Peter Brock as he tackles the world famous Goodwood Festival of Speed 2005 in the infamous Bathurst winning '84 Marlboro HDT VK Holden Commodore, it was an impressive display of driving as always from Peter 'Perfect'. If you were there that weekend or are just a Brocky fan feel free to leave a comment

Foot cam from the HRT V8 Supercar hot lap
This is the foot cam from my hot lap in the V8 Supercar. Just gives you an idea of how intensely V8 drivers actually do drive.
I was the passenger. Driver was Neil Crompton.
