Forget all the culture crap . Did the bird in the red dress  with the big hooters & great voice  who was standing on the start finish line manage   to get a lap time for the QV at Philip Island.
A 1 min 54 sec perhaps???

Nice one Gully...

I assumed it was overseas until the camera panned out and I saw Bass Strait.  That made my heart leap a bit more than the red dress, I haven't driven the track for almost four years!

Strange piece. The lady is Adam Hills's wife and does a really good Variety Show every year at the Melbourne Comedy festival if you ever want to see something funny.

Hmmm.

The money they spent on that could have been better spent in improving their spare parts availability and on training of their dealer network technical staff!!!!

It's as though they don't want to sell cars in Australia....

Plenty of pretty 105s around these days... and some with great history in Australian motorsport... GTAs and a GTAm that mixed it with big v8s. With no reference to one of these celebrating a 105 year anniversary makes no sense.

Not bad where the driver gives the pilot the bird at about 1 min 15.
