• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

And a few more!

Hume Weir was a very unusual circuit up on the Murray River, sadly long gone, but one that had loads of character and plenty of good racing.

Stormin' Norman Beechy and his 350 Holden Monaro GTS, lots of grunt and not much stopping power. The crowd loved him.

Allan Moffat, the crowd's choice for the 'Bad Guy' tag, and his remarkable Trans Am 302 Mustang, originally a 1969 (IIRC) Bud Moore factory car.
The great unwashed in the mob probably thought his Canadian accent was 'American' and that was good enough reason to make 'Marvin' the 'Black Hat'.
He was a bloody good driver just the same.

Kevin Bartlett aka 'Big Rev Kev', thoroughly nice man and a driver who could race anything and win.
Gold Star Champion, Tasman Cup winner,Bathurst Winner, high scorer in Touring Cars, even managed to stick a Camaro on pole at Bathurst one year.
The 911RS sneaked in as a 'Touring Car' through a loophole in the CAMS regulations.

Some 500M further down from this point the circuit looped back in a very long and fast U-Turn and ran back on the other side of the concrete wall, parallel with the front section.
Very interesting ..................:icon_eek:
