I was watching the Bathurst 6 hour a few weeks ago . Definitely slower but certainly not as boring as you might think . The finish was fascinating and just as intriguing as many Supercar races for me at least.
It'll never happen and I agree no hope of TV rights but in the early days of the ATCC in the mid to late sixties and early seventies the racing cars , Falcons , Monaro's , Torana's, Chargers and even Mustangs were raced a lot closer to showroom spec than later on. Some were even driven to and from racetracks . Different times and totally different sport to now .
