I enjoyed it, a few good bits from the 76 year were missed, IE the drama at Brands Hatch.
"In the name of glory" is good book on the 76 year:

Hey Steve, at the start of this clip (Round 1 of the 1992 ATCC) shows the new CAMS rules for the 1992. The M3 had weight added but was rev free:

Speaking of E30 M3's, here is Tony Longhurst crash with the John Sax M3 at the Nissan Mobil 500 (Wellington round).
Wasnt Brocks M3 upgraded to EvoII spec before Bathurst? It was running a 6 speed box by that stage wasnt it?
I think he would have done quite well if he hadnt hit a tyre sitting on Conrod.
Also,...
The real cheats you mean?
The Europeans werent very good at playing with a straight bat in the 1987 WTCC were they? Light weight M3's, dodgey fuel and wheel arches on the Cosworths . . .
Here is some race footage of the under 2 litre pre 1966 race, and a chat with driver Richard Meaden of EVO Magazine fame:

Does anyone have any stories/photos on the 1996 New Zealand challenge at Le Mans?
The drivers I know that were in the team were Greg Murphy and Bill Farmer. Im unsure who else drove?
The car they...

"The build up is almost complete for our first testing session at Ohakea next weekend"
I think its still going to happen. Something popped up on Facebook about it off the top of my head.
Whats HAMB Steve?

Hey Conrad,
I think a total of 600 SE's were built (even though they only needed to build 500).
Also, I recall Tony Longhurst saying one year that his M3's under OZ rules didnt run ABS, but...
It was its own series wasnt it? I cant recall the Nissan Mobil 500 being part of any other series apart from the WTCC in 1987.
Also, remember back in 1996 there werent a lot of full time...
I think he may have had 3.
I for one loved Brock back in a Commodore. The VN sounded amazing reving to 9,000RPM, and his Bathurst Top Ten shoot out lap was spectacular (if a setup cock up).
I...

The Brock Cosworth for sale in the Feb 1995 issue of Autocar:

I would hate to think what its worth now.
I believe I have an old 1995 NZ Autocar magazine that has an ad of this car for sale.
I think I was told it ended back in the UK repainted in its original Andy Rouse livery.
Good to see you on the forum Stu. It seems that we ahve a number of HB members on here.

AMFFORUMVIDEO put up some great Motorsport clips up.
Thanks Steve, I live in Napier, New Zealand.
Im unsure what the car is, it was registered as a Holden "Group A", that doesnt mean that it is one though, just what the office girl at the time could have called it when she had it registered....
