Tim: The motor companies believed it and so did the dealers, so that was good enough. Obviously, if a car could do
500 miles at Bathurst having the wheels driven off it it was going to cope fairly well with taking the kids to school. Phil: It was color, it was spectacle. It was all of the things that a
lot of that younger demographic quite liked to see. Man 13: It was just an incredible scene up there. People would go there and set up these mobile townships. Man 14: Men and women used to plan this trip twelve months out and they would stay on the same corner every year and they would camp in the same campsite. Phil: It was the glamour, the speed, the excitement, the danger. It was the whole lifestyle. Lewis: People coming from all over Australia to watch this race. Phil: It was like a religion.
