Overview
The brand-new Holden Commodore era begins under the cloud of one of Bathurst's most heartbreaking, infamous incidents. Popular Ford privateer Dick Johnson leads early before violently striking a massive rock rolled onto the track by a spectator. The crash destroys his car and emotional dream live on national television. In a beautiful display of sportsmanship, an avalanche of public donations funds his return. Out front, Peter Brock and Jim Richards cruise through the chaos to secure their historic third consecutive mountain triumph.
