There are so many to choose from. Where do I start....?
"I'm busier than a dog trying to bury a bone on a marble floor here!" (RaceCam, Bathurst '86)
"This race is like the Irishman that won the Toure de France I tell ya...he had to go on a lap of honour" (RaceCam, Bathurst '86).
"Poor old Robbie (Francevic), the worst 5 years of his life was when he was in grade 3 I think" (RaceCam, Bathurst '86).
"Mate he'd (Tom Walkingshaw)protest against the colour of his bag-pipes if he could!" (Bathurst '88).
"If you put the curse of the black jellybean on me I'll break your eyes!" (Bathurst '89)
"Winton? It's like running a marathon around your clothes line!" (RaceCam, Winton'90).
"...and that thing of his...(Brocks' Sierra puffing smoke)...I nearly choked to death on Mobil 1. It looks like the last train to Ferny Grove!" (RaceCam, Oran Park '90).
"...this bird here (female competitor), she's like an ashtray on a motorbike!" (RaceCam, Bathurst '90).
"Even the Sierra on 1 cylinder has got about as much grunt as the Commodore!" (RaceCam, Winton '91).
"I think I've run over a Chinaman. In fact...I think I've run over a whole colony of them!" (RaceCam, Bathurst '91).
"Ohhh I think Brock (spinning into the dirt)needs a spade! Whoops (Dick also spins into the dirt)looks like you'd better get me one too" (RaceCam, Eastern Creek '94).
(check out my signature for this one)
(after a dog had earlier run onto the track) "...I've hit mineral here before...and vegetable...and I thought to myself "Not an animal?!"" (Bathurst '96).

"They said they tested it in a wind tunnel, but I reckon they just held up a rubber balloon and let all the air out" - Bathurst 1982, discussing the new XE rear spoiler's effectiveness (it may not be rote... will check the 82 Great Race book of Bill Tuckey's when I unpack next weekend
I saw this one on another site this morning and loved it - I'd forgotten about it:
"They should have made it out of lolly, at least then for 450 bucks you could have eaten the thing". ?Dick Johnson describing his opinion of the Brock Polarizer.

dick in new zealand ,driving the pinepac falcon with anderson,im busier than a brickie in beirut.Speakink of the handling of the old XE.
Yeah, that was a good'un. Aust. Dirt Bike magazine reported it in their regular monthly quotatble quotes column at the time, and I had nearly forgotten it until I saw it again recently in Aust Muscle Car. Some of the narrative in "the Unforgiving Minute" is gold... the bit where he's describing how they painted his second FJ with a mixtue of leftover house paints and it came out "a sort of lilac".. and looked pretty trick... "at least from the back of a galloping horse 100 yards away in a thunderstorm" When I first read that one I laughed my hole out!
Jeez, had to go back a way for this one. This is a quote from Mike Raymond on Ch 7 at Tassie in 1990 when Dj was all over Brock for the lead in round 2 of the 1990 ATCC & with Brock waving his arm out the window of 05 for a lapped VL Commodore to get out of his way... "I don't know Brock, maybe you need to have both hands on the steering wheel".
Geez it was good watching those 2 racing hard for the lead back in that era. My 3 young boys were just watching the video on the box & the young fella's were in amazement how they could throw these things around, sideways just about everywhere, & not touch each other (Note to R. Kelly)
Glory days!!
