2018 50c Holden's Motorsport Legends 1972 LJ Torana XU-1 PNC

Light, nimble and finely tuned, the LJ Torana XU-1 won the Hardie-Ferodo 500 on Sunday 1 October, 1972. The LJ Torana XU-1, which had a 200hp six-cylinder engine packed into its compact body, outperformed Ford’s V8 Falcons. Featuring wider Globe wheels and hand-grooved Dunlop slick tyres, the LJ Torana’s agility and supreme wet-weather handling allowed it to steal victory from the Ford Falcon GTHO Phase IV which spun out of control in the wet conditions, along with many other rivals on the track.
