1992 Great Moments From Bathurst.
"The race was won for the second year in a row
by Jim Richards and Mark Skaife driving a Gibson
Motor Sport prepared Nissan Skyline GT-R, the pair
becoming the first back to back Bathurst winners
since Peter Brock and Larry Perkins had won in
1983 and 1984. Richards and Skaife had to be
declared the winners after a rainstorm swept
across the race in the closing stages causing
many accidents in conditions deemed by race
officials too dangerous to continue." - Wikipedia

People have to remember how heavily the gtr’s were handicapped by this stage. It’s pretty amazing how quick they were on a power circuit. I remember watching this as a young 18 year old and thinking that Denny Hulme was an old fella that had passed away. 56 seems very young to be dying of a heart attack now. RIP champion.

Obviously gave them less of a handy-cap than the Sierra's trying to make their itty bitty biscuit tyres last 30 laps though, didn't it ! Also, who actually slipped through to cross the finish line first ? I'll give you a clue, it WASN'T the "Rain Master" driving the supposed techno marvel !!

@justaname1862 2 жыл бұрын

The Nissans were hobbled you realise right in 92? They boost restricted them, rev limited them and added 100kg +. The only thing they didnt do to them was make them run on 5 cylinders. They even added weight ballast to them because the Sierra had no chance against them....watch this...it will give you a better idea from the year before..91...3:42 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a9yCd9Jl18nMnZc.html

What a disgusting reaction by the crowd! That car performed perfectly, pit crew was incredible, and the driving was superb. Most race fans love it when the entire team works together like a well oiled machine! It's poetry in motion for gear heads!! Ha ha ha... Not sure what they were whining about. maybe something regarding a previous race. At any rate, shame on them for the childish reception! Those guys deserve better for such a great race!

The year Ford and Holden had any competitor hobbled so they had a chance at being competitive (basically cheated) for crying out loud....the only thing they didnt have done to the mighty GTR was make it run on 5 cylinders...it was boost and rev restricted and was carrying more extra weight than a passenger (100kg)...it had NOTHING to do about closer racing and all to do with F & H Sales and Marketing of what wins on Sunday SELLS on Monday...especially for the old Dinosaur v8 commodores wich were just no longer competitive...So what did F & H both do next? Had ALL competition banned...hence... v8 Taxicab series and ultimately destroyed Australian Touring Car series and group A...they both deserved to go Broke!

@noah_73 2 жыл бұрын

Umm, Group A was ultimately doomed overseas too and I'm pretty sure the V8 series had nothing to do with that. Don't let your emotions overrule rational thought

@johncarl5505 2 жыл бұрын

The only reason the GTR is popular is the fall of Group A. If It went on, the GTR would be ridiculed like the dominating Mustangs, Falcons, Camaros, Commodores, Sierras, etc. before it. I've seen this cycle again and again. Wether you like it or not, V8 supercars lasted longer than previous ATCC regulations. I honestly hated 2 door cars in ATCC.

It's always funny that whenever a foreign manufacturer makes a good car F & H whined. Be it the Mazda RX-7 or the GTR, it's funny how ultra national they were and how fragile their national ego was

@johncarl5505 2 жыл бұрын

@@mazdaroadster-mx5 It's the same for any national series, that's why the McLaren F1 GTR was banned in JGTC at the behest of Japanese manufacturers. At the end of the day all manufacturers agree that silhouette racing is the best way to go, or they can go with Balance of Performance, although fans don't like that one. This is why NASCAR, Supercars, Super GT, old DTM, etc. have mostly identical cars with manufacturer styling, no manufacturer gets ahead and everyone is happy.

Dick Johnson should of been declared the winner! Jim smashes under yellow not taking enough precaution, not to mention if you look at when the yellow was deployed he also passed under a yellow flag which gives Johnson the win.

Bruce Lee didn’t know that , it only further adds cred that Johnson won the race! Seems to me that these wrongful decisions should be changed as they do impact on all sports and in some cases effect the direction the sport heads down.

GTR whiners, just be thankful that the Sierra's were knobbled by having to use those tiny wheel/tyre packages that the 2 litre natural aspiration cars used !!

@woopimagpie 11 ай бұрын

Nah, the Sierra was at the end of its development and was as fast as it was ever going to go. It was already superseded in touring car series in Europe and the UK in 1991. The GTR was just a better car, there's no arguing with that. More power, better aero, 4WD, engineered by the team with the best resources, and driven by arguably the best driver in the category at the time (Jim Richards). Considering all that you'd be asking questions if they weren't winning everything.
