No top-line Sierras front for the meeting, except Bond, whose brand new car isn't exactly race-ready. The race is between the lead BMW and the factory Nissan. It's Fury in the Skyline that leads until their only pit stop; the Mobil crew get Brock out of the pits with a quick stop, and Skaife can't regain the position. It's Brock's first win on the road since the Surfers ATCC round in 1986, and will be BMW 's last win on Australian soil until 1991. |
