This week on the V8 Sleuth Podcast powered by Repco we’re chatting about a Classic Car: one that has a special place in the hearts of Holden Racing Team and Craig Lowndes fans. HRT 033 – aka Gabrielle – caused a sensation when it debuted during the 1996 ATCC, featuring a CAD-designed roll cage with a distinctive ‘Petty Bar’ that was subsequently banned from being used in any other car. We chat about the car’s incredibly successful – yet surprisingly brief – competitive life, its two sizable shunts, and where it is on the road to restoration.

In the wake of the return of the Bathurst 12 Hour, this week on the V8 Sleuth Podcast powered by Repco we’re looking back at the Nations Cup series. Devised by PROCAR, the series pitted exotic sports cars from around the world in a parity-matched series that was effectively the forerunner of the modern Australian GT Championship. We chat about how it came about, the stars, the cars, some of the quirky tales and aspects of the category, why it came to an end, and what its legacy is.
