The chase was on alright, the Falcons were chasing Morris and Brock after just the first 2 laps!

[bjacko688]

yeah sorry..the falcons did get swamped..77 the falcons did better..

[andcom05]

Dont have to be sorry mate, i landed some footage of the 78 race a couple of months ago and i made that comment because the torana's give everybody plenty of stick in the opening laps. As i told you the other day i'm planning to put a section of the race on this site in the next couple of weeks!

[bjacko688]

lol..thx look forward to see new footage..i found and saved to favourites on page one of my channel from amf videos part 1 part 2 and part 3 of 1977 sandown round it is fantastic footage..moffats xb gt's 1& 2 they look fantastic

[andcom05]

Yes, that is a very good original footage, i obtained that race a few years ago as a special order from the ABC. I've since had it converted to dvd, and yes they did look very good and go very good as that was Moffat's big year(until the A9X was developed of course)!

[bjacko688]
