If that was a 500 lap race I'd get nothing done today. Thanks for putting this up - really takes me back to those fantastic Bathurst days. I was in the Holden camp (dad worked for the General) but none of that really mattered. What a sensational drive - you were held up all over the place - kept your calm in the off and pulled a fantastic race together. No race format today IMHO gives the same emotional experience and raw feeling of 'man and machine' (or 'lady and machine' for all you PC types). Cheers and thanks - Dave
This series should be broadcasted worldwide. Man I could listen to this all day long. Lot of passing, good racing. Yet, people like boring shit like F1. Smh....
Great 👍 stuff ! @ 5:26 , Here in America some of us like to call this here , A lil too much mustard or a little too much hot 🔥 sauce. The pure sound of the falcon , I love it If you close your eyes it sounds exactly like an old school NASCAR Winston cup car from the 90's & early 2000's era.
WOW...that has to be the best in-car video to date! That V-8...rock and roll music at it's best. Thank you for sharing. It was like being a passenger along for the ride...awesome just awesome.
Pinepac Racing , The memories that came flooding back seeing you guys at Bathurst last year was great ... Look forward to watching more 💯% ..... Cheer's again
Near perfect race setup. Looked like the strongest car in this lineup. Several rearview mirrors got real happy when he was turned around in traffic. Conrod Straight driving was epic!
@@pinepacracing what size clevo is this.... Do you guys still have to stay at the 5.8 capacity. I have a 434 clevo in my XC Ute making 645hp....your seems well north of that.... I HOPE YOU GUYS TAKE OVER FROM SUPERCARS... you have a cult following... Hats off too you guys so impressive... 😁😁😁
300kph in a XE ! SWEEEEEEEET !!! how was the factory non power steering in those things !!! i used to lift myself out of the seat while steering when i had my Learners permit
@@stephenbachman132 I had an xd, same thing, took it for new tyres and an alignment and after that it felt like it had power steering all the time, drove that thing for years with heavy steering
That engine is a sweet sounding bit of kit. what a rocket ship. 300KPH down conrod. Beautiful. And hear that engine buzz up over the hump up mountain straight.
I've always loved Bathurst. That uphill then downhill twisty section is iconic, just like that down-hill mindfuck at Laguna Seca. It's always the first track I jump to when I get my hands on a new a new pavement-racing game.
Great footage and driving. Free revving Cleveland. I think this car used to race in NZ in the 80s. Dick Johnson came over to drive it and stick it to a pair of bmw635s that were dominating at the time. Unfortunately he screwed the diff on the start line.
Super enjoyable footage, incredible driving, and man does your car fly! Simply blows past the other guys on brakes (mostly skill) and on the long straight (mostly car). Wow.
That was one smooth driver and brings back memories of me of racing at Kyalami, albeit not with such power. Loved to have tried it though down Kyalami’s 1mile straight with those beasties
Very tough car. The XE has always looked great especially Greens Tuff. My parents had an 4.1 efi, ESP model I'm pretty sure. Pretty quick ,quicker than the 4.9 proven by my dad!!
That was an absolute pleasure to watch and thank you for leaving in the little event at the last corner. But one thing I did notice is right foot braking? I have never seen a racing driver use that technique
I would choose to watch this over current V8 Supercars any day! What a machine & driver!
exactly mate , old school is way much better .
Incredible !
The speedo and the heart rate monitor are mesmerising to watch. He’s so calm.
Love how it rips through the gears and effortlessly hits 300 down conrod. Great to watch. Need a tacho added to the video!
The overall pace of this XE is insane. Love it 👌🇦🇺

a seriously fast falcon, very clean and crisp on the highest revs, a ton of exceleration
Watching in 2024 and wow what a red-hot go. The sound is pure bliss 👌
Perfect balance of grunt and handling what a beast, credit to the driver and builders.
As an owner of a DJR sierra i love watching these races , that was great to see , very impressive driving , i would love a go in that animal .
Perhaps we can arrange a key swap ;-)
@@pinepacracing Deal ,,
Damn........hittin 185 mph on the straight. This is so awesome. Best 15 minutes I've spent in a long time!
EPIC in-car footage ! Love all the telemetry and the view of Andrew doing his thing
That was fantastic, engine sounds and looks strong.
Awesome man! Long live the XE! I could watch this all day 😍
This series should be broadcasted worldwide. Man I could listen to this all day long. Lot of passing, good racing. Yet, people like boring shit like F1. Smh....
it is,ytoob..
What an absolute beast! Pure joy to behold and listen to.
What a great drive, pity you got caught up in old mates moment, all the hard work undone. Definitely has some grunt.
Wow, that thing is a WEAPON! Absolutely love this, the sound, the driving, the circuit. Awesome :D
What a symphony. Great machine and driver.
Loved it mate. Brings me back to the good old Bathurst Mountain Days 👍
Great 👍 stuff !

If you close your eyes it sounds exactly like an old school NASCAR Winston cup car from the 90's & early 2000's era.
The car runs a RoschYates D3 358ci Cup Car engine pushing 850bhp
Thanks for the upload. Really enjoyed this on a rainy Sunday. Cheers from NY
Cheers Benny
The sound and vision reminds me of that old NASCAR video game from the late 1980’s
Great upload, Just Brutal too listen too.
That is pure RAW racing!
Thank you for letting us come along for the ride.
ON-BOARD is amazing!!!
wow over 180mph with driver skill so awesome to watch thanks!
Bloody BRILLIANT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man this Falcon flies and great driving :)
WOW...that has to be the best in-car video to date! That V-8...rock and roll music at it's best. Thank you for sharing. It was like being a passenger along for the ride...awesome just awesome.
bobjons7 have loads more on our channel but Conrod straight full noise is one of the best
Jeebus...! With a clear run, 300 on C'rod, and 255 on Mtn Str! That's deffo more than I expected from anything in this formula.
Remember watching the Pinepac boys doing this at Pukekohe some 40 odd year's ago ... Still awesome ... 😎😎😎
Rain Man still fun to be out there 👍🏼
Pinepac Racing , The memories that came flooding back seeing you guys at Bathurst last year was great ... Look forward to watching more 💯% ..... Cheer's again
This falcon a weapon
Good car a good track it’s great fun great to Watch
That sound is absolutely heaven to the ears!
Bloody Nora one of the best videos from Bathurst on RUclips
2 yrs on and its still a highlight in the car, thanks
Near perfect race setup. Looked like the strongest car in this lineup. Several rearview mirrors got real happy when he was turned around in traffic. Conrod Straight driving was epic!
All I can say is OMG.... that is one amazing engine in that thing.... Wow.... Sound so frigging awesome...
Can vouch for the sound quality inside the car at full noise :-)
@@pinepacracing what size clevo is this.... Do you guys still have to stay at the 5.8 capacity.

@@roryalgate872 358 Roush Yates sprint cup road race spec, tuned for Aus Elf 103 making 875hp
Love the footage, definitely one of the fastest cars in the category.. good call on sitting out race 2, she was slippery out there..
We need more of that. Please. Your car smokes em all on the downhill straight. Loved it
This beast would make the ultimate hearse ( slight conversion to carry a coffin that could be strapped aboard. )
As much as I love the look and sound of these old cars, what about the track? Mt Panorama is such a cool circuit!
Absolutey fantastic, what a beast of a car..
That's what I call, a supercar..
Love it! You can see the heart rate go up when he over passes or tricky manueuvers. I was feeling the excitement.
Great video.
Fabulous racing, gentlemen. Thanks for sharing this.
300kph in a XE ! SWEEEEEEEET !!! how was the factory non power steering in those things !!! i used to lift myself out of the seat while steering when i had my Learners permit
MrMazrx haha we run the factory power steering box, driver comforts 😉
My mum had a non power steering XF.
Very heavy going slow like parking. Was actually good at highway speed.
@@stephenbachman132 I had an xd, same thing, took it for new tyres and an alignment and after that it felt like it had power steering all the time, drove that thing for years with heavy steering
WHAT A BEAST XE , THE DRIVING WAS UNREAL PERFECT
That engine is a sweet sounding bit of kit. what a rocket ship. 300KPH down conrod. Beautiful. And hear that engine buzz up over the hump up mountain straight.
Awesome car & drive! To all the flogs who say falcons don’t handle well, watch this beast
They don't. Look at the man hrs put into this thing.
XD falcon owner ya Flog.
I would rather watch this racing any day over Supercars.
156 heart beats per min, for almost half of a lap
An athlete definitely
Vayx Fulgur must have had a valve job done on his heart
and he just keep the rythm
This is completely awesome!
Excellent driver! -- the fast Yellow Cab!
5 start Uber for sure
I JUST BARED UP!!!!!!!! What a machine!!!!!!!!
Excellent drive good on you mate brilliant
Should have been back there this week but for Covid travel restrictions :-(
Nice to hear a couple of V8 hot laps without commentators talking all over it.
I've always loved Bathurst. That uphill then downhill twisty section is iconic, just like that down-hill mindfuck at Laguna Seca. It's always the first track I jump to when I get my hands on a new a new pavement-racing game.
That was friggin awesome...that Falcon is a beast! I was hanging on & I'm sitting on my couch!😁
Mate, I am so sorry that because you lost the control (5:30) when I said his car is awesome :) Great driving skills and nice car setup. Best regards.
Just having another look,bugger me you pulled that beast up quick when it all went wrong.Holy shit straight back into it.
Gees! That's one mean mother "Falcon"! Great driving! What a buzz!
Brilliant , you were absolutely on it !!!!!! Loved it 👏
Thanks, was a blast coming through even with the wee spin after pinching the rear brakes 🙂
Bathurst is my all time favorite track, I love teaching it in gt sport
i love going there and breaking the road rules but you get fuckwits going up the opposite way and also you have vegeans jogging
Excellent video, you’re a great driver and that’s a nice XE Falcon.
Great footage and driving. Free revving Cleveland.
I think this car used to race in NZ in the 80s. Dick Johnson came over to drive it and stick it to a pair of bmw635s that were dominating at the time. Unfortunately he screwed the diff on the start line.
What a sound.
Those are real cars unlike cars of today!
WOW , thx for the upload !
Damn that XE got some legs!
That's some scary shit when it gets speed, looks like its gonna bounce and slide off the track
Thanks for sharing. Great viewing
That loud pedal is awesome! 😎
Awesome car and driving.
STUNNING V8 MUSCLE CARS😍Epic Sound Damn so Aggressive 😈😈🔥🔥❗❗❗👍🤙👏Thanks for share i really appreciated
Your welcome, the track liked the car or the car likes the track ;-)
@@pinepacracing i liked both Track and Cars 😈😈💯💯%%👍👍awesome vid and sound...the pilot is very Great🔥👏
@@pinepacracing we could tell !
Demonic engine and great driving, proper heel and toe like it should be!
Just gotta love this!!!
She's got some stick all right, and the organic component is pretty handy. Great vid.
woopimagpie 2nd trip to Bathurst so had some track knowledge 😉
@@pinepacracing Very well done. I enjoyed the coverage on TV, was great to see it from a drivers perspective. Great stuff.
5:30 That flame 👀
Shift light
Super enjoyable footage, incredible driving, and man does your car fly! Simply blows past the other guys on brakes (mostly skill) and on the long straight (mostly car). Wow.
Best TCM in car I have ever seen
That was one smooth driver and brings back memories of me of racing at Kyalami, albeit not with such power.
Loved to have tried it though down Kyalami’s 1mile straight with those beasties
A beautiful XE Falcon
Great save at Hell Corner good driver and very quick car.
Love watching these at Pukekohe!
Almost 2 seconds off the last lap mate great recovery 😀😀😀
This was epic. Truly epic. Well done.
He spins out, gets a better time. Dude... nicely done
Awesome 👍👍👍👍🏆 Brain is Happy!!! Thank You for sharing!
Kind of reminds me of my drive to work this morning.
So when are these cars gonna take over V8 supercars??
MrMamba45 the sooner the better
yea man! they should do something like this, i'm pretty sure people will start 3d printing or machine new body pannels for aussie cars.
I wish
you got that wrong, these are the supercars, the others are just fakes. I once owned an XE , ESP Fairmont Ghia
Won’t it look ridiculous when these cars are going around first up on race day followed up by non V8 Softycars. Everyone will have left by 10am😆
Thanks for the ride. I can walk from here.
Very tough car. The XE has always looked great especially Greens Tuff. My parents had an 4.1 efi, ESP model I'm pretty sure. Pretty quick ,quicker than the 4.9 proven by my dad!!
That was some mint driving. Especially making those positions back after the spin. 👌🏻👍🏻
That was an absolute pleasure to watch and thank you for leaving in the little event at the last corner. But one thing I did notice is right foot braking? I have never seen a racing driver use that technique
9:45 Oh, my.
Bloody awesome! What a Falcon good car that is!
Amazing driving, amazing car amazing race
Wow that things got some Gruntasaurus...
Amazing!
Bro was full sending it much respect ✊
That thing is an absolute beast. Made the rest of them look like flintstones cars.
Totally insane! Thanks for posting.
