The aftermath, or a small portion of it, of the multi-car crash that stopped the 1981 Bathurst 1000 after 121 laps when Bob Morris came together with Christine Gibson at McPhillamy Park. Morris, in the #7 Falcon, was in second place at the time, half a minute behind race leader Dick Johnson. Many of Johnsons critiques were quick to point out had the race gone the full 161 laps, he may not have won. Johnson finally got redemption when he won the 1989 Bathurst, this time the race going the full distance.
