As at Amaroo, Fury is fast in practice, but this time the Skyline is able to keep its tyres in good shape. Fury takes pole and leads the first half of the race, before Francevic muscles his way past and opening up a three second lead. Brock was closing in on the blue and white Skyline until an oil filter split, ending his race. Team-mate Harvey had his best ATCC result in many years, finishing the race on the podium, heading Crosby, Johnson and Richards, who again chose the 635. Surprisingly, Richards wasn't the fastest 635 in practice, with Charlie O'Brien qualifying ahead of the JPS car. Unfortunately the crowd were deprived of a good dice between the pair, the Queenslander's race ending on lap one with a broken gear selector. (William Dale Jr/www.ten-tenths.com) |
