It was 5 years consecutive, it was the best racing i ever saw, I lived for Easter back then.

It was broadcast on Channel 10 live.

Porsche even built a special race 911 for the event and the FD still won, eventually the Bathurst Edition was built but it was a far cry from Porcshe's Bathurst cars with lexan windows and pull down straps ultra lightweight loser....lol

I'd buy a copy of the tape also.

The best race to get is the Eastern Creek 12hr *1995* (last of the 12hr races) you can get it from SBS as they did the telecast, you can also get the official summary tape from Mazda Australia.

It features the best FD ever made anywhere "the one off produced pre 12hr race 25 homologation specials" RX7 SP.

I am lucky enough to have one of these original 25 batch cars (of which 3 were dedicated to race team, so only 22 were available to public), and also the video of all 12hr races that the FD won.

I have a copy of the 12 hour fro 93 or 94.

They broadcast it on TV for around 4-5 hours of the 12 hour race.

Its on VHS & I am unsure on its quality after 12 years

I'd buy a copy if someone wants to duplicate theirs.

You're Lance right? Used to own that red Cosmo back in NZ?
Would you ship a copy to Auckland if your tapes still play.
