that all changed when the aussies realised they couldnt compete with the turbo nissans and volvos....my uncle (neil lowe, privateer) got a third placing at bathurst in a bmw back in the day ....early eighties i think . on the podium he said " just shows kiwis can fly" ....... opened the door for a lot of kiwi drivers. he went on to work for both dick johnson and peter brock
