honestly guys,
Holden never intended the new Monaro for racing, and it was thrown in the 24 hr race to see the reaction of the fans more than anything...
I guess it just shows what they can do. Laughing


Yeah it was just thrown in after several engine configurations were tested, various inlet manifolds, cams etc were designed and tested. The complete rear suspension including sub frame was redesigned and completely fabricated by Harrop and the shell was prepared past V8 Supercar specs!!

Of course they wouldn't have bothered if the Diablo and F360 hadn't been nobbled severely to ensure there was no decent competition.

Shows how deficient the design of the 5.7 litre engine is that they went to so much expense to use the 7 litre.
