Looks like on that type the red means 'keep the needle here'.

Looking way ahead and letting the harness and seat do the hardwork. It is still impressive though :)

I read that as 'Celica vs. Caprice' and was very confused.

Bathurst looks like a really difficult course.

Very cool Bathhurst looks like a really fun track.

A buddy of mine drove a Celica of that era around for a while. We had a knick-name for it that I probably shouldn't repeat Brings back memories of how hard he drove it and how durable it was. We used to rally it on dirt/gravel backroads.

Look how bulky an in-car video camera was back in 1980. That's before I was born

That's an awesome video!

I have a Celica. I have a Capri. My Celica beats my Capri 'cause I still don't have the stupid Capri running. Grrrr. I want that car back on the street. It sure looks awesome though.

In reply to fast_eddie_72:

What's keeping your Capri from running? Do you have the 2.0 or the 2.6 engine?
