AUSTRALIAN TOURING CAR CHAMPIONSHIP, ROUND 3, SYMMONS PLAINS, 13/03/94.
The touring car competitors arrived in northern Tasmania to a newly renovated and upgraded Symmons Plains track complete with new pit area and hospitality facilities. From personal experience, in past years Symmons Plains had been falling farther and farther behind the mainland tracks, and this facelift was essential to keeping the event on the calendar in future. Congratulations to all involved.
The heats were conducted on a cold windy day, and as is becoming the norm in the ATCC this year Mark Skaife dominated, taking maximum points on race day, winning both heats and the dash. The hard luck story of the meeting had to go to local hero John Bowe who had the extreme misfortune to draw six for the dash after qualifying on pole. Such is life... After a storming drive in the first heat Bowe was looking even better in the second until the gearbox packed up to the crowd's disappointment.
Another good day for Mark Skaife who has won all the heats to this point. The two heats at the Surfers Paradise Indycar GP are not going to be counted towards the championship, but the big V8's always provide an exciting spectacle around the tight and twisty confines of downtown Surfers.
