Hot stuff: Holden pin-up boys launch Bathurst assault

1/10/2002 13:49 (V8 Wire - Jason Whittaker) - There’s no doubt Holden’s mighty V8 Supercar team is hot on the track. As for whether they’re hot off it, we’ll let you be the judge.

Holden's Team of Champions


When you’re hot, you’re hot – that’s the theme for the General’s assault on Mount Panorama next week, the same slogan used for the Torana XU-1 campaign back in 1972 that drove Peter Brock to the first of his nine Bathurst victories.

Given Holden’s recent domination of the V8 Supercar series, it’s a timely throwback.

The Holden Team of Champions – (left to right) Larry Perkins, Mark Skaife, Steven Richards, Jason Bright, Greg Murphy, Jason Bargwanna, Garth Tander, Cameron McConville, Russell Ingall and Todd Kelly – hit the sauna in preparation for the gruelling endurance test.

Perhaps there’s a calendar in it, also...
