Tom Walkinshaw with the Jaguar V12 XJS qualifying lap at Bathurst back in 1985 (in the days before they added the Chase deviation half way down Conrod Straight, so has the full length Conrod). He set pole by over a second, from the other Jaguar..... On two wheels through McPhillamy is not anything you see everyday!

I think this might him been his first visit to Bathurst, so not bad for a 'rookie'

Edit: Just checked and it was his 2nd visit... his first in 1984 saw him break the clutch on the grid and not take part.
