Just wondering what the chances are of a 1:18 being made in the colour scheme HRT are using as a tribute for Brocky at Bathurst ?


Cheers :)

Don't worry Biante will have to make it when it wins Bathurst;)
Seriously,I hope so even if it doesn't win.I reckon they would be extremely popular.
Cheers,
Tony.

Yeah, I like the Bathurst look but I think it will only be made if HRT wins.
What about a twin pack in 1:43rd.

They look good by the times HRT is running

You blokes better snap out of it. We want a Holden victory on the mountain.

Would still like the car to be made though, would be fitting for the event.

In the same way that the Richards/Richards car was fitting for '04?

WHAT??
The one that did not even made it of the "taxiramp" will be done, and finally a FORD wins with no model in the pipeline!
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, sad state of affairs.
Nahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, only stirrin, (cannot find the smylies.)
looking out for the remaining BATHURST WINNERS of old to be issued, to complete the collection and I can start on the 1/43 scale BATHURST WINNERS.

It bounced off skippy, remember, only a few hundred metres ahead of where the HRT car bounced off the Perkins car.

Good luck getting a 2001 in 1/43 Bert unless u want 4 cars!;)
I'm glad the Skaife/Tander is being made as just like the Brock 2004,it may not have achieved anything but it will form a part of aussie motorsport history anyway.:)
Cheers,
Tony.

Richard Poole

it may not have achieved anything

Only pole position. That's always something.

I'm really excited about this release. We may never see these two names on the same car again.

Question is though: when are we likely to see her?

If all the rumours are correct,we'll be seeing these 2 together next year too!

If thats the case, they will be a formidable duo minus car problems of course. Virtually unstoppable:).

Sorry, couldn't get everything confirmed that we need to in time so no 2006 HRT Bathurst cars in any scale.

Second that Tony, Richard noting your message the other day about future 07 > cars but not to have this one is very dissappointing considering the signifcance of the car and the race.

I agree, it'll be the last HRT car to race at Bathurst with our logo's and to have the special bonnets for Brocky but there are certain requirements for production that we could not reach and as such we are not able to produce the models.

Thanks for giving it a shot anyway Richard.......would have been good

VXfan
09-10-2006, 02:01 PM
That's it then,I'll just have to get a season car and paint the bonnet myself!Ok,so that's unlikely but hell,I really want this car!!:(

I was thinking exactly the same thing Tony. Richard surely it cant be a lost cause, even if it was 1 size not all 3 or even limited to 1000 per size something like that. I bet there are alot of people who would love to get this car its a shame at this stage it cant go ahead.

I am with Luke, i think they would sell well... not just for the black bonnet but a to have the 05 of the Supercheap 1000 sticker on the door on a HRT car

Come on Richard one last VZ

come on Richard please make the Skaife car- if not now can you think about it for the future (same with the Lowendes car (maybe in 5 years time?)

Richard Poole
09-10-2006, 02:41 PM
I can't. It's not possible. I can tell you now, I would be the first in line to add one to my collection but it isn't going to happen.

Thanks for trying Richard- if it were possible we know you would do it- maybe sometime in the future- oh well i'm looking for to some 80's C'dores-- also Richard, what happens to the moulds when you finish using them- do they get chucked out or do you keep them in case you need them in the future

What a joke.
Probably the most significant HRT to race at bathurst and its not being done.
Not happy!
Thanks for trying though i guess.

I suspect that the hurdle is not at Biante but at the headquarters of GM.
Might be wrong though as I am only guessing and do not know.

Richard being it was such a significant car, is it possible to get the reason why it won't go ahead......to put an end to speculation.

ferrari fan
09-10-2006, 09:34 PM
There is no speculation to start with.
Richard tried and simply could not get it together, it did not meet the requirments, whatever the reason.
As stated by Richard above
Lets move on.

Gee - what would have happened if Skaife hadn't had clutch problems and had won (or did Holden prohibit it being made because the car failed so miserably - a bit like Mercedes not wanting their 'flying LeMans' car to be modelled).

Bert - perhaps you could do the bonnet design as a decal, together with the other necessary decals for those wanting to convert an ATCC car?

Martin Thomas
09-10-2006, 10:36 PM
Perhaps a negative vinyl decal that can be used as a mask for painting??

How is this car significant? Plenty of fast cars have crashed out at Bathurst before.

Commerative bonnet to Brock and with this pole Skaife went outright second on the list of all time bathurst pole-sitters only to Brocky

I thought the HRT car was very classy. I was worried before going that the Brock factor was going to overshadow the week-end.
As it was, everything was done brilliantly I thought.
