Farmer George finished 2nd in the 1983 Australian Touring Car Championship, so they were a very competitive car even in normal race trim, and a groundbreaking car in Australin motorsport! And they just look awesome! There's a guy with a replica doing track days up here, but its too high, too soft, and not powerful enough...
