That's a good video for showing how steep the track is, especially over Skyline, down the Dipper and Forrest Elbow onto Conrod Sraight.

cool video i would say seeing it had the shacker sticking out of the bonnet & the shear acceleration of it that it has the mighty 351 cleveland in it

LON (10/15/2011)
I believe 1969 XW Falcon GT had 351 Windsors & late model XW (1970 ) had Cleveland V8's .Not sure what motor was in the car in the video ,but he sure had to pedal to get past the old Customline ? Considering there is 14 years difference between both cars ,that old Y -Block wasn't about to move over and let him by . Lon Yes lon, you,ve got the engine /yr combination right, i worked for ford dealers from 69-73 and was fortunate to work on and drive these among other new models, twin cam escorts, gt capri.s,2v falcons etc. i owned and drag raced ph111 XY falcon , ran 12.00. They were without doubt the best ford made here apart from customlines.

I watched the film setting on my couch. Found myself slightly leaning into the turns and kept trying to pull my foot off of the gas! Really an excellent perspective. Must have been an inverted start to put the Mustang back with the washing machine motors. Chuck
