SCALEXTRIC 1/32 HOLDEN A9X TORANA - 1977 BATHURST AUS EXCLUSIVE SLOT CAR

The distinctive Mandarin Red Holden A9X Torana first appeared in the hands of the late Bob Jane in the 1977 Australian Touring Car Championship. It then made its first Bathurst 1000 appearance with Bob Jane and Ian Geoghegan behind the wheel in the 1977 edition of the Great Race. The pair qualified fifth with a lap time of 2:25.9 in their only Bathurst start together.

The car also received the honour of the “Dulux Refinisher Best Appearing Car Award”. As a result, on the morning of the race it was the first car to be rolled out onto the starting grid in front of the huge crowd trackside and a nation wide television audience. Unfortunately their race didn’t last long when the car damaged a wheel only 35 laps into the race and it could no longer continue.

This unique beast only lasted two racing seasons after it was involved in a mammoth shunt at Amaroo Park during an AMSCAR Series event with Garry Rogers at the wheel in 1979.
