Lotus 1, I have a copy of the 1991 ATCC. about an hour and a bit long.

Give us a call if you're interested.

hooks, I'll trade you my 1990 ATTC for your 1991. :P anyone have 1992?

I bought this bloody DVD the other day that claimed 1990-1993 ATTC turns out it's 1990,1993 with 1991 and 1992 sadly missing. It's the old channel 7 coverage though and is pretty good. channel 7 really put on some good coverage with their incar cams, and pole cam etc.

What year was it that Lary kicked ass in the VL at Lakeside. I cant recall of the GTRs were there, but the Sierras were all there. Hmmm, have to try and find that odl tape. The the rounds of the SATCC would be great.

I photographed all the ATCC rounds at Lakeside in the late 80's early 90's and remember snapping the R31's and the windfield GTR's....

Pictures??? :D

I hope I can find them, I was shooting for newspapers in QLD and they own and keep the shots. I of course kept the pix I liked for my self but since moving to Tassie and I can't find anything.

I have worked as a media photographer for 15 yrs and nothing is more exciting than shooting motorsport. Bring back the old ATCC days!!!!! I'm sick of the same old V8's running one by one, one lap after another.

I too miss the variation in cars. Ford Vs Holden.... *yawn* a silhouette series......

If you can dig the images out, you'd have many people salivating here! :ninja:

Any updates on how this doco is coming along?

Any updates on the restoration of this Group A car? Is it going to be in the 1991 livery? I believe the car that was sold to Asia (and is now returned) was the 1991 Bathurst winner. Can anyone confirm?

The doco is coming along very slowly. Unfortunately work intervenes. Material is still being collected

The Group A car will be restored to the '91 livery and its rebuild will be in the doco. Fred Gibson wants to see the car. Hopefully that will be in March. The plan has been to let him see it before restoration and get that on the video also.

The previous owner of the car thought it was the Bathurst winner. Another forum refers to Issue 3 of Motor Racing Australia where a journalist asks Gibbo why he sold the Bathurst winning the car overseas. He said something like " it was just a car"

Others say the R32 in the Fox collection is the '91 Bathurst winning car

How do you prove it one way or another?

noice, the bathursts are good, and I now have a few versions of them, but what I'm really after is the 91 and 92 ATTC. highlights is fine, but full races would be gravy. :(

I have both of these Richard...will be available on DVD soon...ill let you know.

The No.1 chassis was the livery 1 for 2/3 of the season...then they swapped race numbers for the remainder of the season and Bathurst. Then chassis No.2 wore race number 1 an easy way to tell which was which was the black windscreen strip which didnt change when numbers changed (the other cars windscreen strip was white).

    • Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i. 
    • Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.
    • Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.
    • Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.
    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
