Whenever you're feeling down, watch this. It will blow your depression away with every gear change
I concur bro I LOVE this clip!
@@brycejohnstone2984I watch it all the time! ^ _ ^
Oh so true 👌
No music my ass, there was some of the most beautiful music playing the whole time
Amen bro!
✔ Music to my ears.
I bought a GTHO Phase 2 (Metallic blue) in September 1969 from McCleod Ford (Rockdale NSW) (I was in the ARMY by end of January 1971)
My dad freaked out, as the car cost half as much as an average house in those days.
My sister learned to drive in it, eventually I sold it to her. Now she drives like the Devil and can make quick decisions.
By end of 1971 my dad traded the family XT Falcon on to a 351 XY Fairmont.
Yes nice music a V8 going flat out down the straight
Bloody oath 👍
arse.....ARSE!!! what are ya, a bloody yank!!!!???
Imagine driving like that for 161 laps with drum brakes and stock road tires. And four different classes in one race. Heaven. Beautiful to watch and beautiful to listen. Now I want more.👍
I'm not thinking he had rear drums.
And no power steering.
the way Bathurst was meant to be mate!!
The first 7 out of 10 cars to cross the line in the 71 Bathurst were XY GTHO'S. Imagine if this XY started on pole where he belonged instead of having to wade through all the hack drivers and slow cars.
@@mattcernjavic9999 The Xy always had lighter than average steering
For an Aussie ford fan this is music to the ears, the shaker scoop rocking back and forth on and off the power and the wiper lifting at high speed is as hardcore as it gets. Truly awesome
I loved how the revs flared when he lost traction on the bump on Conrod Straight. I carefully watched the tacho and he was topping out at about 7,000rpm, probably from valve bounce.
The title's a lie. This is 9:20 of the sweetest V-8 orchestra conducted by a maestro.
Watching this again in late 2023 and it's still one of the all-time best race videos on UA-cam. I absolutely loved listening to the revs flare when he loses traction on the bump on Conrod Straight (hitting almost 150mph), plus seeing him man-handle that thing around the corners and slower traffic. Absolutely epic!
I have watched this ten times and it never gets old
Same here ! That clevo has a sound that u could just about eat it’s that good !
Love how full noise coming down Conrod the wipers start to lift off the windscreen !
Yeah and then he lifts like a pussy
@@matteo_syd7271 it aint a video game, you know how much grip they DONT HAVE at 200 km+
Interesting you say that, because they are not the original GTHO wipers, they were standard ones. The GTHO wipers are the same as the Fairlane ones and they don't lift of the windscreen.
@@musclecarbear4704 Interesting, because one of the indicators of how fast you were going on the old GTs was the wipers starting to flutter at about 120mph. I’ve been in a genuine HO many times, and they DO lift......
@@davidburne9477
Damn right , and the bonnet wobbles and shakes, the tops of the doors rattle and batter , they moved about a foot either way with every bump, they were an aerodynamic nightmare at speed pushing a flat brick wall into the wind, and in the corners at speed that big heavy 9” diff would skip and jump about like a angry snake, it was bloody frightening , what a rush it was compared to my Rspec, it all just sits there still like a lounge chair in cinema.
Although the roads in the early 70’s weren’t as smooth as mount panorama or the the hot mix billiard table like highways of today.
Who needs music when you can listen to a wonderful engine like this? This is just so good...you feel as though you are actually inside that car with him.
Thank You.
Well Said..What an Adrenalin Rush Just sitting in my comfortable Chair at Home..
I Love Watching Footage Like This 😊😊
For some offroad fun have a look at the WRC 👍
THOSE GUYS ARE INSANE 😂😂😂
Whaddya mean no music . I heard Ford's, Concerto 351 from start to finish , I think
A symphony of cylinders!
I'm lost in the sound of 6 thousand RPM's
A symphony of an 8 cylindered harmony's about to begin
Mr. Maestro of the orchestra, raise your baton
I hear a song. LOL.
Quite a symphony wasn't it ;)
That was absolutely awesome. Reminds me of the early 70'S and the Fords of Moffat, Gibson, Carter, Goss and others battling it out at Bathurst.
Now that's f.....g car racing. What a fantastic sound and watching him actually driving the thing was unreal. These super cars are shit compared to this stuff. No wonder people can't be bothered with follow the leader in V8 when you can watch these blokes actually racing!
@@rangertom77 Lots of sawing at the wheel.
Oh, I also loved watching the "SHAKER" snapping side to side on the gear changes!!
I'm a Holden man, but this thing rips and snarls like a jungle beast.
Not 1 Torana in the mix...
Well said. A car lover appreciates all makes. I am a Ford man but appreciate a lot of Holden, Chev, Chrysler products too.
rock farmer perfectly said
snarls like a pissed pack of lion's.
My condolences for being a holden man 😥🇦🇺, (falcons dead too but at least we still have fords I suppose .......we'll always have Bathurst reruns though
best music ever.. from Czech Republic with love !
One of my favourite yt clips of all time , was watching the 2019 Bathurst and put this on to relieve the boredom of modern Bathurst , imo the old racing was so much better ,
today's racing is to clinical and like watching paint dry.
I was thinking exactly the same thing. You take the worlds toughest/greatest race track, add cars of wildly differing performance, old cars who's suspension was designed by Satan himself, mix it together with the sound of fury, you have some of the greatest racing ever seen on this planet. These drivers, most of whome would be amateurs deserve the highest respect for their professionalism and ability. This video is 9 mins of pure gasoline heaven.
I won't watch it anymore, it has dtrayed to far. Closed wheel formula 1 style crap
You know.....that was really an accurate statement...👍
Probably wont be around much longer in this for.. I know the 1000 will be run rain hail or shine but in what is the question. The cars and the event itself is still a bloody good spectacle.
Back then they used to race cars. Now it's devolved into racecars.
The greatest of all Aussie muscle cars.
And that from a Holden man. Awesome!
J.C. Kohle get outta here! I own a genuine Holden muscle car and this thing would tear an a9x a new a hole. No 308 ever caught an xy. Even hg-hk’s weren’t real competition. As for e38’s and e49’s, they may have been as fast as a phase 3 on 3.0:1’s down the strip, but what about the optional 3.5’s or 3.9’s?! Bill Bourke built them to wreak havoc and that’s exactly what they did.
High comp 351’s with solid cams and a driveline that simply wouldn’t break. There’s a very good reason that a real phase 3 is the most expensive Aussie muscle car of them all.
Not 100% sure but didn't the gt get beaten by a little 6 cylinder Holden at Bathurst sometime
Jack Murray and Bob Holden had record for World's fastest Cortina at 8k revs 226Km/h on Cross Ply Tyres in 1966 - car was a DNF.
Never get tired of watching this. I love how the "superior and faster by every passing year according to internet pub folklore" charger gets spat out by the HO at about 5.30 💪 the charger would have lasted about 30 seconds if it didn't have so many lumbering shitboxes between it and the HO at the startline. 😊👍
@@bullboyracing9517 Yes, but the rain played a huge part in that win !!
Awesome piece of driving in a legend muscle on one of Australias best tracks, love the shaker pulling to the right when you give to her, can really feel the power and the noise of this beast is remarkable. Thanks for sharing. Australia has the best muscle cars I hope for generations they can be preserved and shown for what they really are. If you ever get to own one, drive it daily and appreciate it, live the dream, don't lock it in a shed hoping one day to make money from it.
He just wrestles the car all the way around the track
Muscle cars are good for one thing; going fast in a straight line. These are real race cars.
@@TheOceanman290 Furiously sawing at the wheel in the corners.
Liked how you left the music & narration out. Loved seeing the shaker twitch on gear changes, and the wipers lifting on Conrod. Nice. Thanks.
Impressive driving in a legendary car. Absolutely nailed the downshifting pretty much every time
DANG that was good driving! I counted that he carved his way through 37 cars by the end. Music to the ears!^^
Yes, some of those passes were in hairy places
Been watching this for many years, It never gets old👍
I love how he still has to steer wildly while travelling in a straight line....
That’s how old cars were.
No chance of falling asleep . You were constantly busy even driving in a straight line. Got an XT falcon, only real change I made to it (other than a 351W) is a rack and pinion steering.👍
“Production” cars. This is the purest form of car racing. Great footage mate 👍🇦🇺
I love how they wave at each other as they go past fkn awesome
Mate what a Brilliant Drive not a scratch, and nice bit of correcting at 7.51 the noise was better than expected the beast went very well, that has got to be one of the best runs around the Mountain I've seen .....Thank You...
this is THE BEST EVER!!! I keep coming back to it!!! This bloke can definitely drive with nuts the size of footballs
This deserves your thumbs up as the top passenger ride you'll ever get.
That's the first bought of car sickness I have had in many years. I watched races right there on Mount Panorama near Bathurst in 1948 involving prewar cars and Morris Minors. I note that the corner at the bottom of Con-rod Straight has been substantially modified, no doubt to avoid the old problem of cars finishing up in the next town!! Thanks for the video, brought back quite a few memories!
That is why they are the legend,its a fantastic clip.Long live the mighty XY
That was / is the best video I have watched on youtube yet. Love the sound as it mumbos down conrod and the backlash that the box makes braking into the Chase is awsum, brings the hairs on my neck up..... Got love the little wave as he passes the leader and the quick adjustments of.the rearview. And the wiper hanging on for dear life down conrod..... Absolutely brilliant!
I love the way these guys wrestle with the car going around the track at high speed and then give a casual wave to other drivers for letting them past like it's a Sunday drive.
This is one of my all-time favourite Bathurst videos. My go-to racing clip when I want some heavenly music.
This is one of the best things on the internet. Fabulous driving, marvelous cars and sounds.
Best vid on UA-cam. Thanks for the 'no music' version. Love the hand gestures to the Charger.
Thank you VERY MUCH!!! that was indeed music!!! Chasing down another iconic muscle legend the charger and the sound of that V8.... just beautiful!!!!
9 minutes of awesomeness and great driving
This takes me back to Mt.Panorama with all it's thrills and excitement. I first visited here in1955. What memories this classic video bringsback for me.
A magnificent drive in a magnificent machine. I am jealous of the adrenaline rush that would have instilled. That 57 Cusso was a bit of a surprise. There were some great machines on track and we were riding with the best when watching!
Absolutely brilliant !! Was great to see all the older cars I grew up with. Just pure nostalgia for me with the sounds of the HO's v8 and then the slight pause on the up change because of the old manual "H" pattern box. Watching the driver dealing with the basic limitations of the car with no ABS, traction control, computers or high tech suspension/chassis geometry. Awesome to watch the other cars all dicing for a position and seeing the lighter ones go well over the top while losing out on the straights to cars like the GT. I know this is an old upload but thanks for posting. I'll be watching it more than once!
Good God what a BEAST! Listening to that GTHO at full song and watching it blast around Bathurst is enough to give you goosebumps. I'm surprised the guy driving is able to sit in that race seat with balls that big!!! 👍👍👍😎
Great Vid, Great sound, don't watch many vids all the way through but I couldn't stop this one
Working your way thru Cortinas, Alfas, Minis, EH Holdens, an old Customline and a Studebaker Lark in an XY GTHO around Bathurst is just fantastic video footage and brings back memories when all those classes used to clutter the track in the first few laps. Great driving with that fantastic surge of power coming onto Conrod and again going up after the first bend.
what an awesome video... fuckin loved every minute of it...
Watched this vid' many times , the engine & the gearbox in overrun is just gold
I just love the music of the Falcon XY-GTHO
Takes 25 positions in the opening lap. Truly impressive! What a beast of a car.
Just came across this, bloody magic, I had and still love the 56, custom line, and couldn’t believe me eyes when spotting one in this race, the guys me new hero.
I'm in awe of the skill of these drivers, threading their way through slower traffic that's piloted by drivers of wildly varying ability. I don't know how they do it.
Gotta love that roar of the clevo 👍 oh yeah and a shout out to the charger too ✌️
Awesome video! Great to see a car thats worth so much in a show room actually being used where it was made to be, on the track. Makes me proud to be an Aussie!
Nicely prepared Falcon GTHO and terrific driving Mr McGrath !
Possibly the best video I will see ALL year
that was amazing!! the people who raced and steered these cars at bathurst back in the early 1970's had balls of steel, it took a true professional to drive a xy or a ht monaro running thin tyres slipping & sliding everywhere unlike the new FG falcons & VE VF commodores that are idiot proof with the front wheel tubs, love your video, thanks for the share :)
Ford really got it right with this car, fantastic.
Except the brakes, most of them went thru brake pads like a hot knife thru butter. Just imagine 1 of these monsters with a 6spd tranny, decent brake set up and suspension to suit Bathurst’s twists & turns. 👍🏻🇦🇺
Have you driven one.....f#ggin awful.....
What an awesome car, 351 GTHO has always been my favourite
Wow ... That was pure bliss I put it on full stereo, heaven to my senses . Great driving , he would have won if the charger didn't slow him down , so many cool cars from the greatest era of Aussie muscle and skill . So cool ...
No Music? That was the sweetest heavy metal track I've ever heard!
Sweet sounds there, brings back some old memories.
Holy shite ! ! Best racing I’ve ever seen ! What a Driver and what a Car ! Edge of my seat the whole time . New go-to race for many times to come! Thank you , Thank you
Wonderful !
It's amazing how well the Falcons go around Mt. Panorama. As big a car as they are.
There was music, mr cleveland and his orchestra !!
Hahaha and his eight piece reciprocating orchestra
That was some of the best self controlled, self disciplined, situationally aware driving i've seen, reminiscent of the old Bathurst days of multiple classes all on track at the same time. If they'd had race cam back in 1971-2 that's what it would have looked like from in car. Absolute joy to watch you at work, thanks so much.
This is why I love going up to watch the classic car events. Everyone of these guys go as hard as they can, even the little mini's tear it up!
what a symphony of sounds . beautiful , absolutely howling .
Very neat down changes with just the right amount of blipping the throttle. Music to my ears!!!
I'm a huge V8 Supercars fan, but i grew up in the days when the Aussie muscle cars started, even had a drive in a phase 3, and those three laps were the most enjoyable 3 laps of Bathurst ever, i was braking so hard coming down conrod straight, bloody awesome, thank you so much, this vid is a keeper, gotta show the young blokes how real blokes drove those beasts !
Excellent! And superb driving skills and awareness with a glorious soundtrack 😀.
Excellent footage & sound.Chasing the yellow Charger was awesome then when the time was right to open up the big girl,she just left them for dead,even the right hand wiper wanted to jump off because it was scared towards the end of the straight.Can’t beat the top end torque of the V8’s.
Bloody hell... just watched this and after two and half minutes nearly fainted as I hadn't taken a breath... brilliant stuff. What a great track.
The charger driver was unreal. He was signing to the big xy which side of the track he was going to. Top drivers. Beautiful old cars
Awesome. That was like a parade of every single cool car in Australian history
I love watchin the shaker move every time he changes gear.... Ahh such a sweet sound!
That was so nice, the tune of that 351 was so sweet. Thankyou!
One of my favourite clips of all time. Just the sound is amazing.
That’s a great sound track! Music to my ears. 👍🏼
Fantastic audio and video. Great driving. Love it.
That was an amazing experience!! Sure I’ve played on RealRacing3 and particularly loved my home circuit. As a kid, I loved the coupe XC etc Falcons, especially that “loverly ass”...actually more like thighs, that protruding section above the rear wheels. 💕it!
I never really saw a drivers POW before in this classic.
No wonder they did so well. I really wish I had raced go carts as a kid, then stuck with it.
My favourite driver will always be Ayton Senna though. RIP.
What fantastic, patient driving. Damm that GTHO was fast.
I wish I was a kid again!
great video ,dunno how many times i`ve seen it now, it still has me glued to seat, and that intoxicating sound of the clevo going through the gears, awesome.
Oh, the sound is magic!! Those downchanges are awesome...
I really felt like I was in the cockpit with the driver... awesome! I was willing him to cane it out of the corners! And those downshifts! pure music!
I only know the track as a video game - 'cos I'm living near Brands Hatch, SE England. To ride in the big V8 was heaven -- seeing loadsa cars from my youth just added to it. Great vid - looks like a great day - well driven Matt Mcgrath (y)
Most days it is a public road, speed limit 60kmh / 35mph. You need to drive it yourself to fully appreciate the racing. Off the mountain, it just drops out from under you. Scary stuff at race speeds. World class circuit.
Great Stuff !
Times gone by of yesterday !
I Remember those Times,Oh so we'll of all the Ford boys of Moffit,French Gibson ,Goss ,Carter & a few others as well ,But never in my Life will I forget in 1971 the GT HO Phase 3 when Moffit Cleaned them all Up ?
I was at the mountain when He Set the fastest time in Shoot out for Pole ! Came inn & was Speechless,Could not talk because he was So fired Up & travelled at breakneck Speed Up & over the Mountain for that Time of the Seventies ? And during the Race drove around the Racecourse with the Sun Herald in the grill in front of the Radiator ! And just Shattered the Field ! Something I did not see before or ever after ? The Sound of these Cars in my mind will never be Replaced ?
Thank U Sir for the Video & the Reminder ,Spectacular ?
Loved the wiper arm bouncing, the rearview vibrating around, that silhouette of the shaker, and those sweet sweet sounds.
Heavenly sounds. Great driving by the whole field. Found myself looking at the collection of talent he passes. From the EH's blowing smoke to the charger and hundreds of cortina's, plus those beautiful little flyweight alfa's that are so much fun. Magnificent beast. Downshifts at end of conrod were like a beethoven symphony.
Not to forget the stout Cortina's Mk 1&2 !!
Awesome driving skills through that traffic, well done
Nothing,and I mean nothing will ever replace the beautiful growl of a red hot v8.
That was awesome, enjoyed that more than I thought I would.
love that 351 engine thrust moving the shaker it's great! awesome driving mate
That is THE best 9.21 mins of my life top vid guys
That was an adrenalin rush. Used to own an HO 72 Ute. In the old days you would jump in, after 12 schooners, and go nuts all the way home. It went like the clappers. Just loved the roar of that big V8.
That is definety one of the BEST on UA-cam
the sound is magic, Great driving skills and patience in the slower trafic and how good it the shaker moving back and forth
I must have one......
Much awesomeness, thank you.
Great video, as someone else said, who needs music, the HO makes it's own music. the diff ratio in those gave them 25mph/1000rpm, a competition prepared car pulled 6500rpm on the old conrod straight without any trouble - 150mph, a little less for drag, or 240kmh!
I've never so many cars in competition without rear vision mirrors.
He had no competition. Good to see yesterday's cars running around. Every man and his dog could have a go. Thanks for posting.
Excellent Video, I am a muscle car fan from way back when my dad and uncles all drove these cars and this is without doubt one of the nicest in car videos I have ever seen. Sensational driving - thank you for sharing; this brings back nice memories!
Holy crap this thing sounds awesome! And Matt is a great driver!
I'm a devoted Holden fella, but this gave me goose bumps..'''.awesome vid.'''..always had a soft spot for the GTHO Falcon...THANKS FOR THE POST !
This takes me back to Mt.Panorama with all it's thrills and excitement. I first visited here in1955. What memories this classic video brings back for me.
Come back every few months too watch this, great music.
The big old HO ate ‘em all up.
