| Summary |
Brocks First Bathurst Win Celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Kings first win in the mighty XU-1 Torana Peter Brock is part of Bathurst folklore and his first win in The Great Race in 1972 remains one of the most popular stories in Australian touring car racing history. As part of this special 40th anniversary release, Chevron has dug deep into the Seven Network archives and turned up 30 minutes of rarely seen highlights direct from the race day telecast as it went to air on that magical day when Brock and the XU-1 Torana conquered Allan Moffat and his works Falcon. As a special bonus, there's also rarely another 30 minutes of rarely seen vision of the following years 1973 Hardie Ferodo 1000 as Brock came perilously close to back-to-back victories but was forced to watch on as co-driver Doug Chivas ran out and fuel and was forced to push the crippled Torana into the pits. Both are in black and white but fully capture rare and previously unreleased vision of two of the Mountains most famous races.. |
