When I first heard of this class at one of Bathurst events and saw the 928 in the field, I became a fan.
You would have loved the side by side with the 928 down the main straight with clear audio of the German bent eight.
Group S is essentially there for what doesn't fit in Group N because it is considered too Sports Car.
Two seats instead of four.
Think Camaro in Group N, Corvette in Group S.
Further, the Class is also made up of three sub-classes centred on the age of the vehicles.
Sa is for Production Sports Cars without a competition history, manufactured by the end of 1960.
Sb for those generally manufactured 1961-1969.
Sc for 1970-1977.

The VHRR have opened entries for a combined Group Na (pre 1958) and Sa race at the Winton Festival of Speed in late July.
Entries in Na have fallen off the radar to non existence, and Sa to minimal so the organisers are trialling the combining of both to try and boost grid numbers by convincing owners to dust them off and bring them back out for a run.
Entry fees for these races are free.
I'm very interested to see how they play together.

I wouldn't mind a dollar for every lap I did around there on GT over the years.

Anyone know why they're demolishing the oval? It seems to still be in good condition, judging from the in-car vision. The car wasn't being subjected to a dramatically bumpy surface.
Is it just not being used by any categories any more?

Honda reportedly is wanting to revitalize the space to enhance tourism. I know part of the oval is being turned into a camping ground & viewing areas for the other part of the track.
 
Yes, actually a must watch if you like BMW and/or touring cars. The video was only available for free for a short time unfortunately but it's worth to pay the couple of bucks to have it on video on demand or to even get a physical copy.

They also made a great film about the Renault R5 Cup. This one is available for free but only in German and without subtiles unfortunately. Still worth a watch even if you don't understand much.

 
A snippet and a trailer from the "Adrenalin - The BMW Touring Car Story" movie.

Cannot think of a movie Jack did that I didn't like.
That’s quite true. I would say maybe, for me, his not as good roles(not the movie) as his other movies would be The Departed. Just to show how much I have to reach.
