Thanks for posting - great video!! I’m a Holden fan and love the masters and you have turned out fabulous looking and sounding XE Falcon - hats off to you…at the end of Conrod straight on lap 1 it looked like JB was driving the widest Torana on earth! This class need to be the future of Aussie V8 racing - give us something to watch.
Good job keeping your composure after having to regain so many positions in the race. I wish this series was in the United States as it is definitely an exciting thing to watch. Who knew you could make such big cars handle so well around a circuit track. But you Aussies are just a little crazy and that's got to help. Keep up the good work and please keep posting videos.
This car is actually a New Zealand Kiwi built muscle car, we were invited to join the Australian TCM at Bathurst and you cant turn that opportunity down to race at Mt Panorama. ;-)

First impressions after a fantastic drive was I love u Aussie racer's ya'll go ham when ya rollin! Love the catch all just before the s curves to harpin that was dope and i like how u learned from ya mistakes and kept the even flow thru the sec run that was beautiful mate cheers!
@@pinepacracing that sucks... I have been to Daytona more times than I can remember lol. Its FAST.... I hope he gets the chance at a drive down here in the future... I'm such a fan of your racing though... I love watching those classics restored to and sometimes past their original greatness 👍👍
Hey Mate im in sydney let me know if you got any questions or help with when you do come down here. I went to Daytona in 2018 for the 500 and i went to the super Sebring in 2019.
Great footage and great driving in the Pine-Pac Falcon by Andrew. JB made him work for it early and kudos to both for old school hard clean racing not only by both these guys but the rest of the field. One only hopes Supercars takes some notes from this before they ruin the series further, its what racing is about .
I Love this!!...a proper racing falcon..keep up the good work people..what performance!!..hats off to the toranas..power to weight is what wins..and driver skill..Henry Ford invented the mass produced V8.. in the 1930's..Go Ford..LoL..I drive an FG XR6..great cars..LoL..Just good to beat all those yank tanks...Lol..
Fantastic to see this, you're doing almost 180mph down Conrod there... that's some lick of speed ! By the way, are the 2019 race telecasts being posted onto youTube ? We've no other way of seeing them here in Europe.
@@pinepacracing My God that's unbelievable ! More so given the aero profile of the car. It must be producing some power ! It's so fantastic to see these cars out.
@@pinepacracing Incredible... are you guys running period motors in that series ? I know Robert Yates is an amazing engine builder, but that's some performance from an 1980s powerplant
This is GREAT! FPP (cockpit) view is always a winner. Puts everyone inside the car with you._. All of my races are FPP, SIM of course, but it ups the difficulty, but moreover it's realistic. When will you ever drive a car from the outside? RC not included 😎 Chase cam is for the weak...
So much fun watching this. Shame it's a Ford (arooga!) but it still sounds the part with that V8 😋 (I've got no interest in following 'brands' like I used to but Bathurst belongs to Holden (😋)). Jokes aside, I appreciate that this series and this video exist in my world 😁!
oh! I should say that somewhere along the line, I switched to Valiant (Aussie Dodge/Chrysler/Plymouth) but they were held up at Bathurst because they looked so good. I don't understand it either.
Awesome in car. Amazed at its outright top speed and acceleration. This car seemed much faster than the others just tricky to keep corner speed high following other cars that are slower. It looks really loose at high speed over those humps on the back and mountain straights. Some of the slower lap traffic...wow...the closure rate is very high. I hope they have someone on coms telling them you're coming and to get off the racing line.
Cheer, Matty - yes we had a new 3 link rear suspension setup that was a little short of testing given the time to ship cars to Aus, we didn't have enough parts to change so made do with what we had. Next time we bring her to the mountain we will have a better handle on the ideal setup for sure ;-)
@@pinepacracing impressive! Last question!!! : is it fair to say the engine set ups in this racing are an ‘unlimited’ spec? XF’s back in the 80’s Bathurst days were prob pushing 480 max?
This car has some grunt straight-line speed of the chart passing others like they are in a different class it's mad and im shattered im a holden man but I must say this falcon is next level fast.

I love the idea but you know what happens when you get the aero package wrong down Conrod?
The Toyota's do pretty good in NASCAR , road or track . BMW has a V8 , could go back to the old format .

Haha yes Bowe was very 'wide' to pass but we had the legs up Mountain Straight ;-)
I thought it was JB due to his dangerous defensive driving. What a tool!!
@@pinepacracing looked like sour grapes from JB because of the slight power advantage the Kiwi's have due to our rules.
@@Sledgie555 I suspect JB would do the same in any series against any car. I luuuuuuuuuuurve that XE. No sweeter V8 sound than an angry Clevo.

It's a public road when race meets aren't on.
@@alanmac8807Yes but there is a 60km/hr limit on it, rigidly enforced . You do get a feel for the track though especially down through the dipper.

290kmh in a 36 year old Falcon. Impressive. Same speed in a 52 year old Camaro, equally as impressive.
