Hardcore Racers.
Watching the Sensational Sierra DVD, and they cover the 1989 Symmons Plains ATCC round.
It is mentioned during the telecast that Jim Richards, a young Bradley Jones and Terri Sawyer all competed at the Thunderdome on the Saturday night. I think Jim may have won the main race, as part of Melbournes Moomba celebrations.
I suppose in those days they would have qualified on the Saturday afternoon, catch a commercial flight or private charter flight to Melbourne and return Sunday morning to Symmons Plains, for final practice and race.
Interesting times.
