Was just thinking the same then seen your post.

Attesa awd system is so good, makes the heavy GTR so nimble around corners and able to power out.

Nissan read the rules and used the best product available, if only ford or holden could have homologated awd products things might have been different. Instead everyone cracked out the tissue box and the rest is history.

Geez I miss this track..

Me too!

There was no complaints when Ford had no competition & everybody went out & got into turbo Fords (which wasn't sold in Australia), then Nissan who had been competing for a lot of years built a better mouse trap, (which was an import) then the tears came from the other teams so as to cobble the Nissan, power, weight etc etc change the rules now look where we are, no Fords, no Holdens.

I think Ford in particular during this period of time missed a real chance to at least get even with Nissan during this time. Could've easily homologated the 4x4 Sierra Cosworth for Group A in 1991 & 92 and maybe pegged Godzilla back a bit! My guess is the reason they didn't is because Group A ended in all but Australia and a handful of other countries after 1990. Big time miss on Ford's part all the same

Aren't nearly half the cars running Fords still?

Those sierra's smoked a lot. Especialy the 05 brock mobile. Also I was at this race at the dogleg. I was 14

I suspect they had to run those sierras on the rich side to make the Turbos live ?

ATCC Should be brought back...had enough of the boring arse VB Supercabs and its bogan followers. Ford and Holden destroyed ATCC simply because they couldnt build anything competitive enough to win and the reason they both went broke in Australia.

You should add Channel 7 and mainly Mike Raymond to that with holden & ford if they didn't win it was no good or bad for the sport.
