Ha-ha-ha  "No Torana Supercar"

That's a bit rough!

Having driven a few small dick syndrome exotics (but not having a few spare million) I have a couple of favorites that I would gladly swap my ten inches for.  :stirpot: :stirpot:

The Brabham is also very fast. I see it was lapping Philip Island in a 1.22.10 which is certainly fast.

Scott McLaughlin holds the Supercar lap record at 1.31.21 and the outright island record is in a Renard 94d by Simon Wills with a 1.24.22. The MotoGp Philip Island record is held by Mark Marquis with a 1.28.10.

 

Great aussie effort carrying a very famous Australian motor racing name.

Personally, now that our car industry has gone I think we should switch over & drive on the other side; it would open the floodgates to such a large range of cars we could import.

Our car industry hasn't gone we still make these.

That looks pretty good. I wish I had seen it yesterday before I bought my new Polaris Ranger.

Brabham announced at the Goodwood Festival of Speed that there will be a road legal BT-62 version released.

Great sounding car.

No matter where it goes, Melbourne will try to steal it. Hope its Sydney, looks like a nice car so you would want to keep it clean.
