Some footage of my stock GTV6 hillclimbing.
Feel free to make some comments. Big torsion bars and springs going in soon. Then the supercharger is going back in.

Hah yeah, they're in every croud.
The track actually cambered off badly there so it's crucial for me to jump to curb so I didn't understeer too badly.

No it's not part of Bathurst. About 400 Kilometres south of that.

I have to say, I don't recall that Bloody Volvo (240 Turbo) being that competitive in Group A...
There's a vid somewhere of the TWR Jag XJS on its qualifying lap at Bathurst the year they won... what a monster!

Found it
