1985 Australian Touring Car Racing - Discussion & Results

By request I'm starting a thread on the 1985 Australian touring car scene. This will be for the Australian Touring Car Championship, the Australian Endurance Championship, AMSCAR as well as any one-off races like the Adelaide GP support race. Don't know if there were a separate championship for 2-litre cars by 1985?

My sources are:
Australian Motor Racing Year 1985/86
Bathurst 1985

Quotet from William Dale Jr. A few numbers, change of class for Minear and six entries supposedly never made it to Winton. I'm wondering why Winton would have to wait till 1988, before being allocated a round of the ATCC again - or was it the organizers that decided to miss the ATCC?

I'm looking for team principals as well, and would like to know who would be considered for the following two teams:
Toyota Team Australia - Tony Niovanni?
Network Alfa - ?

I notice Ron Dickson was down as a non entry in a Rover. Wonder what the story was behins this one? A TWR car that never came off perhaps?

I think the Alfa Manager was one Enrico Zenarini (sp?) who later went onto manage Giancarlo Fisichella?

Sorry, forgot to put some words to that entry. From Australian Motor Racing Year 1985/86 this was to have been one of the TWR Vitesses from Bathurst '84, but soon after the Winton round it was know that this car was back in Europe, for the ETCC.

Forgotten that name, but sure he was still around with Colin Bond when he graduated to the Ford Sierra RS500 Cosworth later in the decade. Actually found him as Enrico Zanarini.

Shame that Rover deal never materialised, it would've been a very competitive proposition against what was generally speaking quite a weak entry, in terms of depth, if not quality. The Tim Slako Rover managed to run well as selected events and there is little doubt, based on their relative performances in the 1984 BTCC, that a TWR car would've been quicker than the already quite elderly ex Patrick/Rouse car that Slako had bought from Sawyer-Hoare.

It was good to see the numbers swell as the season wore on with numerous people debuting Commodore's and the other cars like 635's sourced from Europe and NZ I think?

Cheers for the spelling correction on Enrico's surname as well Jesper.

Winton hosted the penultimate round of the 1986 ATCC, won by Jim Richards (after Gary Scott was disqualified)

Winton wanted a round for 1987, but CAMS reduced the number of rounds and Wintom missed out. They did get the opening round of the 2-Litre ATCC though that year.

They got their round back in 1988 after Surfers Paradise was closed at the end of 1987.

Interesting to hear there were 17 starters... that would be the biggest AMSCAR grid since 1982

Why was there only 2 standalone AMSCAR rounds in 1985. In previous years the AMSCAR Series had been a standalone 4 round series.. In 1985 they obviously got an ATCC race for the first time since 1978 which took up one date. The Better Brakes 300 was run as rd4 (and doubled as the AEC opener), but in previous the years the 300 didn't count for the AMSCAR series.

I think Zanarini left the Australian motorsport scene when Bond left for the Sierra, as Enrico was an Alfa Romeo employee. He was quite involved in motorsport, he'd been behind the Alfasud one-make PRO/Am series that had been run in 1983 and (infamously) 1984

Richards definatly wins from Francevic, the tape doesn't lie ;-) Run in cloudy conditions with rain threatening throughout.

Also as a matter of interest, $25,000 was put up for who got pole.

According the "The Chequered Flag" magazine in early 1985, Dickson talks of running the two Bathurst cars in a full ATCC & AMSCAR campaign, complete with a rotation of works TWR drivers!

He also says that Mobil leaving to go to Brock wouldn't change any of their plans

As you say a big shame they didn't run

Neither driver would have turned up.

Jones had his last ATCC race for Alfa at Surfers as intended, as after that he was on his way back to Europe to run F1 with Haas/Beatrice/Lola (whichever )

Mitsubishi had withdrawn from the series due to poor results and wanting to do some development for the enduro's

Quoted from William Dale Jr. To my reckoning this was the first time TTA had two Toyota Corollas on the grid. So far John Smith had been driving the 3-door Coupé seen at Bathurst '84. This car was now in the hands of Drew Price, while Smith debuted a new 2-door sedan/coupé.

Quoted from William Dale Jr. AMRY 1985/86 seems to have messed the results for this race completely. They have Peter Brock as the race winner after a 25 lap distance, but if you read the race report, Jim Richards was the winner by 1.9 seconds from Robbie Francevic with Brock third. I think the results I have added might come from the wikipedia site or a points table. Strangely the enduro race at Surfers later in the year also seems to suffer from messed up results.
