The modern era of Mount Panorama takes shape with the historic debut of the "Top 10 Shootout" one-by-one qualifying format. Under intense pressure, Peter Brock secures a legendary pole position in the ultimate LX Torana A9X. Alongside co-driver Jim Richards, Brock unleashes a flawless tactical performance that breaks the spirit of the Ford Falcon challenge. Overcoming unpredictable weather and a changing field, the duo claims a crushing victory that marks the beginning of an era of unprecedented mountain dominance.
