The sound of that 917 at the end has been my ringtone for the past 10 years.

back when it was held on NSW oct long weekend.....CAMS dropped the ball and that weekend was stolen by the NRL

2:02

Looked to me like Brock was just baiting Grice to over drive and destroy his tyres pushing to stay in front. Good stuff.

Awsome cars. It was great time to witness this race

Ferrari really got cooked hard by Porsche and ford in mid-late 60s and early 70s; glad they won le mans last year and this year

I don't know what Channel 7 did with the track microphones that year but the sound of the start was mindblowing. So sad that those cars and that type of racing have been lost forever 😞

But what about all that CO2 and toxic masculinity!

Great footage from a golden era

Still the best pure race movie. Thanks Steve. Sorry Ford vs Ferrari.

What a beauty a classic icon all capris are great cars

I went to the Mountain 4 times when Brock won. Great days

50 year old race cars still stand the test of time as far as speed goes. Can Am cars are still the king of speed.

The fast and slow motion crash scene is great film making and terrifying.

My fathers best mate was Brian. Nightingale a Bathurst car racing legend. He drove a RX 7 with Tony Mulvihill and had a famous self dig out, kick the car door in the sand pit moment in I think 1984 or 85. A large man he was great fun to be with me and my brother were 8 amd 9 years old. “ NIGHTO “ was very close with Peter. Rock, we used to sneak in at Oran Park and get kicked out of a Rocky’s tent I remember meeting Alan Grice on a cold Bathurst winter mornings at Bernard’s Bakery in Bathurst. At primary school you would hear all the cars, practice all week. The best memories no phones , BMX’s , swimming in the river and enjoying Ife. Go Bathurst . My father was Colin ( Col ) Preston

VH commodore the best!😅😅

I remember the name Jack Nazer at numerous race meetings, I was a younster back then

LOOKS LIKE ONE IN 16 POOFDER

I was at Bathurst 1979-83 - 1982 was a special year. Great memories. How privileged were we.

Boy! That last minute to the start took 97 seconds to pass! Must be time dialtion.

Best sports coverage in the world at this stage. Ch7 congratulations

funny how dick and johnson are both euphanisms for...

Note the details, like the real 917Ks actually did use key start ignition rather than an ignition switch and a push start button. And yes the Porsche Salzburg 917 Langheck was faster on the Mulsanne than the Gulf Porsche 917 Kurz. "What do you think of Michael Delaney?" "I think he's probably one of the best drivers in the World."

Very impressive and very informative from Stirling Moss

Nothing will ever surpass Peter Perfect in the HDT A9X Hatchback. The greatest race car in Australia, ever.

Real racing not the slow super cars -all the same bullshit -roads cars raced

Best "fender" racing ever. Did I say "ever". Prove otherwise. Purest cars..best drivers in the era... equal..yet not "spec" racing. The best!!!!

Yes a right hand drive 🇬🇧 Ford GT40

hey the car looks amazing, I'm following the restoration since the beginning and it's nice to see progress ! 167hp seems like a lot especially at the wheels. During the heyday in japan they achieved 170bhp on mechanical injection and a12a block, and they were turning to 10000rpm. I reckon you have a a12a block aswell ? Congrats for the F5c56a, not easy to find nowadays...

Brocky won too 😁

The sky, some clouds and an occasional aeroplane.

When lay people refer to Ford v. Ferrari as being a good movie, I laugh in their face.

I was a kid it was the best day of the year

i was there for that race and got a lap around it the day before. great times

dude get the wheels and front spoiler back on..

Beautiful car.Congrats on keeping the dream alive.Best.

You AUSSIES always got the sweetest looking body lines looking Ford ever made.We in the US got the turds.Sweet car man.

This car was owned by Steve McQueen and will be sold at auction soon.

and the worst family car holden ever shipped from europe to australia had all the "mountain" happy..... pfff the start of the end

G'day, That was a great introduction to the race.

The race was won by Peter Brock and Larry Perkins of the Holden Dealer Team driving a Holden Commodore. It was Brock's sixth victory, a record, the Holden Dealer Team's sixth win and the first win in the race for a car carrying a Racecam unit. Holden Commodores filled the top four positions, but only after Dick Johnson was disqualified after originally finishing in fourth spot. Brock and Perkins finished a lap ahead of Allan Grice and Alan Browne. It was the second time Grice had finished second but had yet to win. The second Holden Dealer Team Commodore of John Harvey and Gary Scott finished third, equalling the best previous performance of the HDT

No concrete walls!

Push this Pedal here and you go Forward.. Ok ... ..... 3,400 miles in one Race

Brilliant work, Steve! Keep it up and you'll soon be vintage racing it! The F5C56A trans is a treat to row. I'd suggest (budget be darned) having it disassembled, tanked and having all the internals REM polished and Cryo treated to ensure that little jewel of a transmission lasts another 50 years.

Make Australians Great Again....We were good, real good, and that was before we had selfish, dishonest politicians leading this country into oblivion

The cars are the protagonists. The drivers, more or less, part of the cast.

How did those tyres survive more than 10 laps of this, great stuff

Actual ambiance of cars / footage / sounds of 24 LM race + a bit of drama = Great movie. Depicts the true character of a 24 LM race, particularly of that era. Terrific prototypes, among my all-time favorites. McQueen's involvement is memorable. 👍

To think Cobras were goin for as low as 14 grand around the late 90s, and now command a price ten times that.

Grice was possessed, I'm sure. Outstanding opening few laps.
