Onboard Andrew Williams' extremely fast Holden Torana LJ GTR-XU1 from rear of grid as it carves up countless 60s and 70s Muscle Cars at Phillip Island Grand Prix circuit Australia. Ford Mustang, Chevy Camaro, XY Falcon GT, Falcon Rally Sprint, Valiant Charger, and 1963 427 Ford Galaxie are just a few examples of this awesome field of cars. The little 202cu Six makes a whopping 330hp, in a car that weighs approx 1100kg, delivering not only an awesome power to weight ratio but also superior dynamics over the bigger cars for better handling and braking. The legendary Peter Brock once shared the same benefits, taking the win at a damp 1972 Hardie-Ferodo 500 held at Mount Panorama, Bathurst Australia.
At Master of Machines, we love cars, in fact, we love anything with wheels or an engine, from American Muscle Cars to Australian Muscle Cars, Race Cars and Classic Cars of all kinds and even Barn Finds. If it's fast, powerful, restored or hidden away in hibernation then we'll cover it, and in most cases, we'll even drive them!

my brother had a genuine gtr ,he completely restored it and after it was completed he loaned it to me for a week,there was a hill near my place with a gentle curve at the top and it is the only car that I have had to brake going up that hill, it would go over that hill at 100mph if it was a straight road.GREAT LITTLE CAR,I also owned one it was a 2 door with a 173 and three on the tree, I sold it to another brother,but before I did I painted it red,he had a good run out of it.
