Stunning! Could watch these ALL DAY!

However, check this out, qouted from Youtube comment:

Brock's RS500 at bathurst in 1989 and 1990,apprently he didnt care for the clutch too much! lol wastegates sound great apprently every single ford badge was took off the car which is now restored and in the uk
Why would they remove the Ford Badges?

He did it because he was holdens golden boy (although at the time they had fallen out, but thats a different story) and didnt want to be seen driving anything with a ford badge...

Imagine Steve Gerrard falling out with liverpool and going to play for everton, but taping over the everton badge...

Check the vid under my sig for the best rs500's ever built..

Awesome videos - gotta love that sort of gutsy racing - the speed down "conrod straight" is just balls out fast

Thanks for the link

As you can see here Brock had a name badge instead of the Ford Badges on the car.


Pretty sure Rouse crashed one of the cars into a wall coming down the dipper one year, when he was partnering Brock but not totally sure.

Not a Seirra or Brock, but a video from the same era - watch the car control: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pqszu...eature=related simply amazing.
