Please also understand that even in the off season Bathurst is still highly patrolled by local law enforcement, So also understand that Highly modified cars "May" Be susceptible to pit inspections. With this in mind this "may hinder" a large turn out. Edited 28/07/12 04:28 PM by FIERCE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BA Falcon won the prestigious Wheels Car of the Year Award (COTY) in 2002. Major elements of the overhaul included the development of a more effective Control-Blade independent rear suspension, a significant revamp of the car's inline 6-cylinder engine as well as two new V8 engines and, to top it all off, new transmissions. Design wise, the BA received a completely new look, with designers giving both the front and rear quarters of the car substantial work, resulting in much more contemporary, European-style design. The BA also introduced a thoroughly remodelled interior, whereby the 'oval shaped' instrument cluster was replaced with a more conservatively styled cluster. It featured a large LCD screen, situated in a "satin finished" centre console (Called the "Interior Command Centre" or ICC in short).[28] Within a year of its release, Falcon sales had increased substantially and, for a time, eclipsed Expensive Daewoo Commodore sales.[29]Ford introduced their new Barra straight-six 4.0-litre DOHC VCT engines into the lineup, which included a turbocharged (240 kilowatts (320 hp)/450 newton metres (330 lb·ft)) version and base line (182 kilowatts (244 hp)) naturally aspirated version. More power and torque can be obtained using higher octane fuels, though such figures have never been officially told, close to 199 kW is possible when running Barra182 on RON98 petrol, 402Nm of torque is achievable too. The BA also featured a new North American designed 5.4-litre 4V Boss and Barra 3VV8 engines. The Barra 220 (220 kilowatts (300 hp)/472 newton metres (348 lb·ft)) Boss 260 (260 kilowatts (350 hp)/500 newton metres (370 lb·ft)) and Boss 290 (290 kilowatts (390 hp)/520 newton metres (380 lb·ft)) engines were smoother, quieter and more fuel efficient than the Ford Windsor engine used in the AU.[30] In October 2004, Ford released the Mark II update of the BA. Amongst the changes was a six-speed manual transmission, four new exterior colours, and revised wheels trims.[31] Edited 29/07/12 11:28 AM by FIERCE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then cruise home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
