A win is a win and yet even in modified form still did the same 130 laps in less time they were down a class and still performed better. Considerably slower top speed and acceleration. The handling option must have been ticked on the torana not the GT, and it was wet too. I might get me one of these miracle toranas.
As a side note I'd like to know how top speed was measured. As reported by mags of the time I'm sure it wasn't an accurate measurement of time over distance but just the speedometer. So intact 140 mph could have been 130 or even 150mph
not disputing it's claim to be fastest etc. But my 1971 pacer dash once read past the end of it's measurment and it wasn't as fast of a car as a HO
