| Summary |
To celebrate the 35th anniversary of the first win by Holden's mighty Torana A9X in Australia's 'Great race', Chevron has dug into the archives of the Seven Network to release the 1978 race for the very first time with this double-disc release hosted by the V8 Sleuth himself, Aaron Noonan. . With nine wins in the Bathurst endurance classic, there's no doubting why Peter Brock was - and still is - known as the 'King of the Mountain'. There's a total of eight and a half hours of unseen-since-aired coverage as Peter Brock and Jim Richards claimed the first of a hat trick of wins on the Mountain. The cameras kept filming during the commercial breaks, meaning this release includes a range of never-before-seen material from the '78 classic. It's a classic fight between Holden's horde of Toranas and Ford's Falcons led by the Cobras of Allan Moffat and Colin Bond in a golden era of racing on the Mountain. |
