Jim Richards is a 4 time ATCC from Otahuhu & Robbie Francevic whom is from Auckland is a 1 time champion with the Volvo Dealer Team in 86? Not sure where this historically long domination has arisen from here it's factually distorted

Robbie Francevic was a great ambassador for New Zealand, bereft of self-awareness as he was.

backed it up on the track though

It's a pity that he only had two proper cracks at Australian racing, in 1985 and 1986, his success in those two seasons should have carried on much further

He was rumoured to join a privately backed Volvo Super Touring effort in Australia for 1995 (separate from the George Sheppard run factory team), but that team fell off the radar

Interesting in today's commentary that Chaz is the only Aussie driver to win a race (I think that was the call, at least).

But how good were the PRA cars?? Just in a different league at this round compared to others with their relatively equal consistency

Another way to look at it is the percentage of Kiwis to all podium getters.

This year there are three Kiwis which as a percentage of the regular 26 car field is 12%.

Yet that 12% has won 59% of podium places to date.

2 out of the top 3 positions are also due to the mighty FG-X Falcon XR8.
