    Well just to correct you FPV although i wasnt around at the time, i do know that Gibson did give the Almight XRGT its first win at Bathurst, but it wasnt 1976, more like 1967. I think by 1976, the XRGT would of been about as quick as a poodle at a greyhound race compared to the speed of the cars in 1976. =0P

    How times have changed regarding Skaife. In 1992 when Skaife and Richards won Bathurst in the Skyline under controversial circumstances, it was a whole different story. They were both booed in the podium and the crowd were yelling out, "Nissan drivers take it up the #rse doodah doodah!" I also remember Jim Ricahards calling Australian racing fans as a pack of #rseholes, and Neil Crompton giving the crowd the bird(as he finished 2nd or 3rd in another nissan)

    he certainly seems to be getting more of a figure to his head now compared to 1992, back then you could call it an orange with a nose

    maybe its just his age catching up to him, hes approaching his 40's afterall and i guess he'd be finding it harder to keep fit enough. but then how do you explain John Bowe, hes gunna last forever at this rate
