The link I was given for Bathurst 12 coverage also includes coverage of the support series.

That Falcon is waaaay faster than everything else on the straights.

But most amazing is how that Celica corners so well running "demon camber." Maybe it has a badly reversed camber curve and that maximizes tire contact in a corner?

Everything about that Improved Production class is awesome. From the fact that a 1st gen Celica is insanely fast, to the fact that it's sponsored by a Donut maker.

WIN/WIN

All I can find for the Celica is that the guy is Leigh Forrest, and folks talk about the car on other forums. This one's from 2005, but looks pretty much like the one I saw in the feed.

I wish to meet the man that put a 3sgte in a 1st gen Celica.

In reply to Swank Force One:

11:14 EST and Formula Fords and a pair of pliers on the track.

I've got beer and no place to be in the morning so I know where I'll be for a while.

You'll need to log in to post.
