Bathurst 1000 - 1983: Green Tuf and the Shared Car

Overview

Total destruction and an unprecedented loophole combine to create a deeply controversial race. Dick Johnson survives a horrific, total-write-off crash into the trees during the top ten shootout. Overnight, his crew builds a replacement car from scratch. Meanwhile, Peter Brock’s primary car suffers an early mechanical failure. Exploiting a controversial rule, Brock and Larry Perkins cross-enter into the team's second car, fighting from down the field to steal an unforgettable, heavily debated victory.
