above link is a youtube'd copy of the historic "group n" race on the saturday of the 1993 Tooheys 1000 weekend at bathurst.
good racing, but the best part for us Bellett-heads is from 4:22 into the video for a bit over a minute.
features Tom Amos' awesome PR90 GT battling with a Mk.1 Cortina GT.
enjoy!

Tom dusted it off for the NRMA Motorfest on Australia Day, and is itching to get back on the track, that is a great vid of the car and Tom has had great success with it.

Wow, that's an awsome score PR91. Takes me back sitting on the floor as a kid at home, eyes glued to the Hardie Ferodo back in the 70's. I reckon that's the first time I ever saw a Bellett of any sort (may have been impressionable). These were real cars, powerful chariots, giant gokarts, and took daring men to wrestle and dance them around the Mount. Just love the PR90 pulling 100mph up the mountain past cortina, just crazy !! Also Mini badgering the cumbersome Jag down the mount, but hit Conrod and horsepower prevails.
Very much enjoyed (great way to finish off a birthday...woops, cat out of the bag lol.)
