Some big ones there muz! Thanks for posting this video. Reminds us that the same Bill Brown rolled his GT-HO on the opening lap of the 1969 race at Skyline, triggering a multi-car pile-up that snared about a third of the field. Brown's crash also ensured our mate Hasbeen missed out on a drive in that tumbling 'HO. Such a shame given his excellent second place with Jim Palmer the previous year in one of the new GTS 327 Monaros, in which Hasbeen did most of the driving. He also finished on the same lap as the winner Bruce McPhee - the only two cars to complete the full 130-lap distance. He was certainly versatile!
