    Simple case of "If you can't beat em, ban em", then turn it into a 2 manufacturer championship.

      Totally agreed - and I have similar fond childhood memories. Another thing lost to us is the idea of traffic, with so many of the smaller, less powerful cars becoming a race issue for the faster boys. Timing your run through traffic was a race-craft skill the modern driver doesn't have. Supercars is garbage for the spectator. Respect the machine for sure, but it isn't the specatacle it once was and racing is the poorer for it.

    Bathurst at its peak. I truly believe they should have a 'production/leader' class to Bathurst. Engine size 6cyl only. It can be turbo, supercharged or NA, but has to be a factory 6 cyl engine. That way you could include v6/straight 6. Perhaps it may bring back some interest in Bathurst.......?
