valiant1962 ◊ 2009-03-03 22:28	From 1963-72 The Annual Bathurst race operated as a series production race From 1973-84 under Group C regulations and from 1985-92 under international Group A regulations. 1993 was a change over period into V8 supercars, where eligible Group 3A cars could also enter, and from 1994 on has been run exclusively for V8 supercars. A seperate race was held for 1997 and 1998 for 2 litre super tourers
dsl ◊ 2015-12-20 18:30	Covers 1963 to 1997 only according to commentary - frustratingly difficult to work out which races/drivers/cars in many cases as commentary/captions often unhelpful - it's just lots of clips squeezed together without overall editing; also lots of repetition as clips/cars crop up again in different segments. But wiki - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bathurst_1000 - has huge race-by-race detail info, so most details eventually found. But it's a great way to spend 45 minutes watching some very exciting and gripping footage, and you get a real sense of why Bathurst is so important for motor-racing in Aus, and of some of the epic races and drives which have happened. And it looks an amazing racetrack. Have replaced some pictures on like-for-like - my copy probably much the same quality as marioman's first go, but some of the later colour footage seems better on mine; a few new entries added, plus timings, ID info, lots of comments pictures etc. Most of marioman's thumbs have disappeared, so not apparent now what they were.

Covers 1963 to 1997 only according to commentary - frustratingly difficult to work out which races/drivers/cars in many cases as commentary/captions often unhelpful - it's just lots of clips squeezed together without overall editing; also lots of repetition as clips/cars crop up again in different segments.
