Holden VH Commodore 1982 Bathurst 2nd Place Allan Grice & Alan Browne
For the 1982 Bathurst 1000 all eyes were on Peter Brock, but a realisticvictory was the Allan Grice / Alan Browne Re-Car Racing VH Commmodore. They managed pole position in qualifying and made thebest start off the line race day. But allan with uneven brake pressure, spun on lap 11 at Murrays Corner. Without incident, he got back in the race, but Brock had gained a huge lead. They maintained the pace and after 162 laps gained second place. A very welcome result at the time.
