  1. Searching YouTube for Dick Johnson Sierra Will reward with lots of info and videos on the turbo era of Bathurst and how Dick developed the fastest Sierra in the world trying to keep up with the fastest Nissan Skyline R32s in the world. All locally developed to be better than overseas factory teams.

  2. Early 1938 film exists when it was an unsealed racetrack. Search YouTube for Bathurst 1938 Australian gp Grand prix cars of the time on dirt.

  3. Australia and New Zealand were the only countries outside Japan where you could buy an R32 new from your local Nissan dealer.. I think to comply with expected racing rules to limit cars to locally available models. Local racing just banned them anyway after being developed locally to be so dominant. For more info search YouTube for Shannon's Club TV Nissan R32 .

  4. Pre war Australian Grand prix and many other races on the full circuit but unpaved. Search YouTube for Bathurst 1938 Australian gp More than MGs and a hill climb.

  5. First the Bathurst track is in New South Wales not Victoria. Secondly people live around the track in what are now valuable dream properties. People also want access to the park and lookout at the top.

  6. I think Mercury Merkur in the US. A big failure as per recent vid on Merkur.

  7. He does like Australian Rules football and so has done three AFL videos. His first Australian videos. Might be disappointed with English rugby derived games claiming to be Australian and just a NSW and Queensland thing.

  8.  @williamduval5976  sounds like you are not educated about Australian history and the indigenous Marngrook game that heavily influenced Tom Wills. Not many NRL reactions compared to Australian Rules football and when they are posted get less views. Not much interest in playing it in rugby countries either.
