  1. CAMS wouldn't even let their drivers race in speedway, back in the day

  2. I think the Auscars were a lot more stock than NASCAR. The Calder thunder dome was a scaled down version of Charlotte. The nascars also raced there and were faster than Auscar. I never understood why they raced clockwise, if you spin in front of the field in a RHD car you will get t boned in the drivers door. We have dirt oval tracks all around the country and they race mostly anti clockwise. One of the commentators is the late legend Mike Raymond, the other one escapes me…Evan Green perhaps?

  4.  @stevemurrell6167  Agreed. But NASCAR had been around forever when AUSCAR was first formed. Plus the driver sits a lot further inboard in NASCAR than what they did in AUSCAR

  5. That’s correct although even after following all forms of Motorsport for over 40 years I have never really agreed with it. My thoughts are, I’d rather a glancing blow along the wall than being tee boned in the drivers door. But who am I to judge? 🤷‍♂️
