Is that right? Crikey that's interesting Jesper.

He must've been one of the most successful pedallers not to like the category during its time though! Twice Bathurst winner and pretty much always a front runner when he competed whether at home or in Europe.

Wonder what he could've achieved if he did like it!!

I would venture that had he come to Europe earlier (or for longer) he would certainly have racked up some wins whether in a Commodore or latterly with the Nissan.
