Comments by "John D" (@johnd8892) on "American Reacts to Murray Walkers lap of Bathurst!" video.

This is from the 1997 Super Tourer two litre only race. One of two years when there were two Bathurst 1000 races. Two litre on channel seven in October and a V8 Holden vs Ford enduro but in November on channel ten. A split in opinion of the two motorsport organising bodies. The two litre race had much more international connections of cars and drivers and this got Murray Walker here to commentate. As well as F1 he was a legend in the UK commenting on these type of cars. Brad Jones racing group developed the Audi locally to a very high level but a BMW won the race IIRC. This year there will be a TCR endurance race in November. But getting less publicity. Two litre or 1.6 turbo or some parity system I think. Will the future Camaro vs Mustang enduro here continue to create interest in future? Mustang and especially the Camaro very expensive here so less connection with Australians.

Great summary of the era nearly forgotten by many.

These are two litre cars from when there was a split between a two make V8 series and two litre cars with too many makes to easily remember.
