    That TWR prepared, John Goss Jag winning Bathurst was pretty much my favourite Hardie Ferrodo ever.

      Agreed, the 80s as a whole were probably the peak of touring car aesthetics (ymmv) but the Jag remains the pick of the bunch for me.

    Brilliant stuff! Good hard racing by both drivers and what a beautiful monster that V12 Jag is.

    KO made that Stag pretty wide there for a while. Good racing. Shame the Jag has gone to the UK.

    The Original Stag came with a 2.5 litre V8 the Rover V8 was 3.5 litres but was based on the Buick small block which came with 4.4 litres if my memory serves correctly

      The original plans for the stag were for a 2.5, but production Stags were all 3.0 litre. The original Buick was 215 c.i ( 3.5 litre.) The 4.4 litre was the Leyland P76 derivative..

    Can I just say I reckon the Blendline Footage is awesome and thanks heaps for your efforts big time.
    I took this in car footage from KO in the Stag and Blendline footage for another view of a section of this exciting race. Go Triumph!!!!!.
    The Stag broke an accelerator cable of all things but Mike in the Jag was all over Keith at the end anyway.
    Check out my little mixup and can I encourage Blendline to get some more Footage from Keith . Blendline are awesome and thanks heaps guys and girls

    That's not a Triumph Stag, it looks like a Triumph 2000

      Stag and late model Triumph 2000 and 2500 shared styling from the same Italian designer. However all the 2000 and 2500 models were four door cars and the Stags were all two door like the one racing here.

    Happy to see the Triumph disappear. Terrible cars. Even old Jaguars seems reliable in comparison.

    Being two British cars with a history of poor reliability, it's a wonder they finished a lap let alone the race.
