At the risk of sounding like an old fart, Bathurst is a mere shadow of what it once was. It arouses no interest in me whatsoever. I long for the days of GT vs Monaro vs Charger vs Mustang vs heaps of different brands. Cars you could relate to and buy from dealers in almost the same state they raced in. The drivers were real characters too. These days it's just become another victim of the corporate world, run by beurocrats and sponsors who are only interested in $$$.

I do agree with you there Tony, it is not even close to a factory car you or I could buy off the showroom floor.  Back in the day they used to drive registered cars to the event then race them for the weekend.  Brockys first bathurst in 69 in a HT Monaro driven to Bathurst from Melbourne.

Holden stampede - yay ^^^.Bathurst started yesterday for me about 2.00p.m as I had a few of my mates up overnight for a blokey thing. The wife and girls sought retreat at friends places %.%. 2.30 - beers were cracked and we watched the prelim's before the Shootout. Next was playing the pins and making weird selections onthe jukebox. Pizzas were ordered (recommend the Domino Fire-eater!!) . Started playing poker for "matches" about 9.30 and finished at 2.30am with chase the ace and dribble. Today up at 8.00 (sleep-in) top watch the Biante series with the old bangers - Jim Richards is a legend eh! - 60+ and can still honk around Mt. Panorama withe best. After that was Bacon & egg rolls cooked by yours truly washed down with copious amounts of OJ and coffee. Then the race and no-one had a beer till midday which is good considering we're all over 50 and try and behave &&. Chips, peanuts, cheese, crackers , more beer. Can't beleive I'm still awake. A mighty win to holden and possibly a small lose to liver enzymes %$%. Known these blokes for over 30 years and they all still love the 1000 and pins. Life is good but I'm buggered......

Go the Holdens!!!!!

Your survey was right! AP well done!

The passion was right! With Holdens it always is!

Now we have said goodbye to Brocky we are able to focus again and watch out Ford fans!

I hear Jyebow has been to Bathurst so no doubt has some first hand stories????

The top of the hill is never short of fun stories!

yeh yeh yeh. the HOLDENS WIN AGAIN. I got to admit, i was extremely surprised that FORD has done as good as they have these last 3 years.

HOLDEN simply puts more money into their teams and they sell more cars like HSV/Clubsports and R8's etc for their investment. Smart Holden.
ALLAN MOFFATT use to say, "win on sunday,sell more cars on monday". 
FORD will win the manufacturers championship MAYBE, but the commodores do look better. Real nice cars the new HOLDENS.

BLOODY HOLDENS. LOL.LOL   %.%  %.%  %.%
