Totally agree. Also the best looking liveries. Everyone a classic now, Ford or Holden. Winfield, Castrol Perkins, Shell Helix Fords. Best touring car series. Sadly they've managed to ruin it since...😢
its interesting seeing how group A touring cars evolved differently in the ATCC compared to the BTCC. In Australia, group A became big 4 door v8 stock cars, in the UK group A became 4 cylinder FWD cars
Woah!! MARK SKAIFE!! 5:14! that twice I have seen him escape a high speed spin at Adelaide back in 2002 when "The Rat" hit Skaife then avoided hitting the concrete wall.
Thanks for uploading this Voltie. Seems like yesterday when I watched this - how time has flew by. What a race between Bowe and Perks. Those were the days when DJR were no.1. Gotta love big Daryl.....hey, don't suppose you have the 2 1993 race from Adelaide F1 weekend? I remember how AJ was making quite a show in the beaut PJ Falcon but ended up spinning away to lose a potential top spot. And secondly, do you have the PJ dash from Bathurst ATCC round and Oran Park, both in 1995? I remember the awesome ding dong race between the 2 DJR cars, the Perkins car and GSR cars. Always wanted to watch that again....
@@aus80srockradio94 yeah he is a bit of character but he is loud 😂 nowadays with MS on commentary he has the knowledge No doubt, but he talks far too much 😂
@@barryphillips7327 Mark Skaife has the knowledge alright. But the same old superlatives over and over drives me mad. Tander should replace him. BTW, do you know who the other commentator here is? I'm thinking Brad Jones? Whoever it was definitely was a driver, due to how much he knew.
I have wanted to ask the same. Not sure that Brad was in the race, I think he may have crashed out earlier & was therefore a guest commentator. Judging by their expertise it was definitely a driver.
This was awesome! Thank for uploading! And it is not only great racing, but the recording is high quality too!
Totally agree. It makes all the difference when it's 720p. Brilliant race.
Oh man, that Castrol Holden is just beautiful!
Larrikin Larry Perkins had that car by the scruff of its neck. Phenomenal car control.
One of the great "If there'd been one more lap...." races. An absolute ripper.
That commentator is a legend.
Daryl Eastlake.
JB is possibly the best defensive driver of all time, getting past him is no easy task
Harder to pass than razor blades.
Easier to pass a kidney stone than get past JB
-To quote Dick Johnson.
Thankyou for uploading this.That race was absolutely sensational great stuff by both drivers.V8 super cars at their best👍👍
Great race unlucky Larry Perkins so so close G 2 see side ways action in the wet from the great Larry Perkins Great driving thanks very much 🙏
Great racing these EB Falcon and VP commodore had the best sound

Bwaaahahahahaha! Sorry couldn't help that, was just the way you said it.
Australia : Group 3A
UK : Class II
The Aussie V8 series from this era was absolutely brilliant. They should've given Russell Ingall his wish and had a V8 World Touring Car Championship.
Vale and never forget Darryl Eastlake 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺❤️

2001 actually.
Larry Perkins drove a blinder. Oversteer but never out of control. Brilliant use of controlled aggression from LP.

Good run by Lowndes to finish 7th in the first race and 9th in the 2nd outscored both Brock and Mezera
good racing but i can not put up with Darrell Eastlake hence mute button.
Correct. Nowhere near enough real race knowledge. Just a lot of hoo haa!

Who is commentating alongside Darrell Eastlake? It sounds like Brad Jones but I'm sure he is in the race.

@@sg-yq8pm Thanks for clearing that up s g. That now makes sense.
Epic race,more so the commentary,sorely missed nowadays......
Great great race
3:13 there's was a lead change bowe took back first and the commentators didnt care to say anything just because it's a Ford
Phil Ward.
You had one job 🤦🤷🏻🇦🇺❤️
Thats fu%$#@ awesome
IF Darryl Eastlake wasn't the best commentator that the V8s ever had, I'll eat my own head.
W
yeah that's right. sorry.
