I think Bob Morris’ criticism of Moffat was unwarranted. He claimed disappointment that Moff was running slower than he wanted but, he did this after the car expired. Never question the wisdom of a pro like Moffat, he knew better.

I think Moffat felt that there was something wrong with the car and hence drove it accordingly to make the car survive the race. Then Morris over drove it and broke it.

IDick Johnson has that rock on display and insured for one million dollars! Although it cost him the race win (he was looking very comfortable in the lead), he did have everything payed for and then some in no time due to the fundraising and now has a story to tell. However, sure he would prefer not to have met that rock.

I'm sure Dick would have preferred another Bathurst win
@leongt19547 ай бұрын
To say Johnson going to win before he hit the rock is a bit far fetched considering it was early in the race and all the Ford v8s broke down and were out of the race or multiple laps down

What happened to the car that lost a wheel and axle? That's weird. You wouldn't want that on the Barrier Highway for instance between Broken Hill and Sydney or Broken Hill and Adelaide.

Bob Morris in the days before time delayed broadcasting. LoL back off is what the commentary team wished he said. I pictured them laughing with muted mikes after the cover of "back off" was corrected.

dont ask me how a car lapping 5 second slower gets a lap on his team mate
@buellzz Жыл бұрын
He only lapped 5 seconds slower for a few laps, while the Johnson incident was happening. you see brock unlap himself on Grice a bit later through part one. Hes behind Grice, challenging him and then the coverage cuts away. When it returns you can see Brock 100m ahead of Grice. Then you see Brock pass Grice and Harvey end of part one to take the lead after Grice and Harvs had pitted (Brock had already pitted after he collected the Gemini car 59 seen on its roof just before Johnsons crash). The commentary states hes unlapping himself but hed already done that. Beginning of this part 2, Chris asks Pete how far he is behind and Brock replies, we are well out in front now (Before he had just pitted and Richards took over).
