ROUND 11 – Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000, RACE 30 Mount Panorama Circuit, Bathurst, New South Wales. October 9 - 12 2014 Originally constructed as a scenic tourist drive in 1938, the Mount Panorama circuit plays host to all types of motorsport, including the Bathurst 1000, the Bathurst 12 Hour GT race, and Easter motorcycle meetings. On non-race weekends the circuit becomes a double lane public road, though local police routinely patrol the area to ensure the 60km/h speed limit is adhered to.

    The Streets of Adelaide Await.. GB Galvanizing M Motorsport Preview Rnd#2 Australian GT Championship Presented by Pirelli (Clipsal, Adelaide SA) 26 February, 2013

    The streets of Adelaide await.. GB Galvanizing M Motorsport Preview Rnd#2 Australian GT Championship presented by Pirelli (Clipsal, Adelaide SA) 26 February, 2013 After an outstanding debut to his 2013 national GT campaign, dual Victorian Sportscar State Champion Justin McMillan heads to round two of the Australian GT Championship presented by Pirelli, on the daunting streets of Adelaide, but as he showed during round one at Bathurst, he’s not daunted by the big stage.. “There’s no denying that there was some level of trepidation heading to Bathurst for the first time, but we went with an experienced crew, with two experienced drivers, and the goal of completing laps,” McMillan admitted. “In the end we achieved what we set out to achieve, and came out of Bathurst placed fifth in the championship heading to Adelaide, but where I had Richo [Steven Richards] and Ross [Lilley] to pace myself against there, I’m on my own in Adelaide, and I can’t wait..!” From opening practice at Mount Panorama the GB Galvanizing Gallardo LP600 was quick, and for experienced Bathurst veteran Steven Richards, he was impressed by McMillan’s pace, but also his eagerness to listen and learn. “Justin drove brilliantly all weekend,” the new AGT DSO [driving standards observer] agreed. “He paced himself early and got quicker and quicker as the weekend wore on. Had we not suffered the gearbox issue, we could well have been inside the top five, so to debut that way, and come away from an event that was as difficult to negotiate as any I’ve ever contested with a straight car, was an almost perfect result.” Justin’s debut on the streets of Adelaide won’t be the M Motorsport teams only debut for the weekend, with new partners Interlloy Engineering Steels and Alloys and FUCHS Lubricants joining existing supporters GB Galvanizing, Strategy One Human Resources and Australian Post Tensioning for the first time at Clipsal.

    Der Stille Schnelle – Armin Hahne – Fahrerportrait TWC 2019

    Der stille Schnelle – Armin Hahne – Fahrerportrait TWC 2019 Rainer Braun Wenn Armin Hahne (63) demnächst am Nürburgring beim Oldtimer-GP oder auch vier Wochen später im Rahmen des nächsten TWC-Laufs im DTM- Rahmenprogramm als einer der ganz heißen Titelkandidaten wieder mal ins Cockpit seines ehemaligen Würth-Sierra RS 500 mit der Startnummer 25 steigt und gemeinsam mit Fahrzeug-Eigner Volker Schneider auf Punktejagd geht, wird er bei der Passage eines bestimmten Streckenabschnitts unweigerlich an den 30. April 1989 denken. An diesem Tag, vor genau 30 Jahren, startete der Rheinländer als Ford Werksfahrer in eben jenem Ford Sierra RS 500 als einer der Top-Favoriten und konnte am Ende des Tages froh und glücklich sein, den wohl brutalsten Crash der frühen DTM-Geschichte lebend überstanden zu haben. Auf dem schnellen Bergauf-Stück nach der Dunlop-Kehre hatte sich Klaus Ludwig im Mercedes gedreht und blieb entgegen der Fahrtrichtung mitten auf der Piste stehen. Die ersten nachfolgenden Autos konnten gerade noch ausweichen, aber Hahne war die Sicht verdeckt. Als der Pulk vor ihm auseinanderfächerte, war er chancenlos. Frontal und ungebremst krachte der RS 500 in den stehenden Mercedes – bei knapp 200 km/h. So einen fürchterlichen Frontal-Crash hatte ich ebenso wie die meisten TV-Zuschauer noch nie zuvor gesehen. Ich bin damals als Kommentator der Liveübertragung in 3sat vor Schreck fast vom Stuhl gefallen und dachte im ersten Moment, dass beide tot sind. Gleich mehrere über dem Szenario schwebende Schutzengel und die seinerzeit schon sehr gute Sicherheitsausrüstung der DTM-Autos haben ermöglicht, dass beide überlebten. Hahne wurde mit komplizierten Frakturen am rechten Bein und linken Arm aus dem Wrack befreit, Ludwig kam mit Prellungen und einem Schock besser weg.

    MGA and MGB: Aussie Doctor and the World's Fastest ‘Super Bee’

    MGA and MGB: Aussie doctor and the world's fastest ‘Super Bee’ 27 September 2018 By MarkOastler Doctor Iain Corness and the ‘Super Bee’ were a potent combination, reaching the peak of their performance in 1971. Here they’re in full flight at Sydney’s Warwick Farm in 1970. Love the decal on the windshield, which reads 'The Civilised Sports Car' - it was anything but civilised by the time Corness had finished with it! The MGA and MGB were the ultimate in MG sports cars during the halcyon days of Australian production sports car racing (ProdSports) in the 1950s and 1960s. In fact, at one stage it was claimed that a locally-developed MGB was the fastest Prodsports MGB in the world. That bold statement, by none other than parent company British Leyland, was in 1971 when Queensland doctor Iain Corness and his hand-built ‘Super Bee’ were part of the company’s factory-backed racing team called the British Leyland Young Lions. In reality, Leyland’s claim would have been difficult to authenticate, given that Australia was little more than an international backwater at the time and MGBs were competing successfully in other much larger markets including the UK and USA. Even so, by 1971 the Super Bee was more highly developed than even factory-backed MGBs competing in the UK, given that it was equipped with a unique locally developed DOHC engine. And after several seasons it was continuing to set new lap records, with one remaining unbeaten for eight years. On some tracks it was recording similar times to the top V8 Mustang touring cars of its day.

    Profile: Allan Moffat by James Cockington of Sidney Morning Herald – October 15, 2008

    Profile: Allan Moffat by James Cockington of Sidney Morning Herald – October 15, 2008 Former Bathurst champion Allan Moffat. It's a little-known fact that Canadian-born Allan Moffat, regarded as one of Australia's motor racing legends, briefly studied politics in Melbourne. "My father was working here with Massey Ferguson," he says. "In 1962 I was given a marketing cadetship with Volkswagen Australia on the condition that we do an outside degree. I'd always been interested in politics so I enrolled in economics and politics at Monash University, which had just opened." The deal was the cadets were supposed to turn up at university at 4pm twice a week. That didn't happen a lot in Moffat's case, he admits, because that same year he bought his first car - a Triumph TR3A - and decided to race it. His first race was at Calder. "It was my road car as well. I'd bought it on hire purchase, so I couldn't race it at two meetings in a row in case the insurance company was checking the programs and noticed my name turning up all the time," he says. Racing soon took over from his studies and Moffat received a letter from the chancellor suggesting he not return for the second year of his degree. He now wishes he'd kept that letter. It changed the direction of his life. He returned home to Toronto and in 1964 drove over the border to watch the Indianapolis 500 race. While sitting in the grandstand he decided then and there that he too would be a professional driver.

    Simoncelli, Di Meglio and Dunlop Celebrate in Style!

    THE OFFICIAL MAGAZINE OF DUNLOP MOTORSPORT IN TOUCH [ www.injection.tv ] ISSUE TEN, NOVEMBER 2008 Simoncelli, di Meglio and Dunlop celebrate in style! Marco Simoncelli and Alvaro Bautista have been the most consistent finishers in the MotoGP 250cc category, each scoring in 13 of the 15 races this year and are first and second in the riders' standings with one race remaining, in Valencia at the end of October. With his third place finish in Malaysia mid-October, seconds behind Bautista at the chequered flag, it was Simoncelli who was crowned the 2008 250cc champion and the Italian celebrated by completing a helmet-less victory lap around the track. Simoncelli has scored five wins to Bautista's four so far this year, but the Italian has consistently finished on the podium. Mid-season he was on devastating form, finishing second to Mika Kallio in France, and then winning the Spanish and German Grands Prix, finishing second in Britain, and third at the Dutch Grand Prix. Bautista had fallen far behind by the time the bikes lined up in Spain, having scored one win, but just 16 more points in the Mike di Meglio wins the Australian 125cc race and Dunlop's 12th straight category title opening six races. The Spaniard worked hard during the second half of the year, starting on his home ground where he was second to Simoncelli, and that led Dunlop celebrates another successful to a run of six straight podium finishes, culminating in victory in South Africa.
