Thirteen laps that became legend. Easter Monday, 3 April 1972: Allan Moffat’s Trans-Am Mustang versus Pete Geoghegan’s “Super Falcon” at Mount Panorama. They lap the field, trade the lead like prizefighters, and finish just 0.6s apart. In the midst of it all, Moffat’s windscreen is smeared with oil traced to Geoghegan’s Falcon; his wipers only make it worse. So he does the unthinkable—unbuckles his belts, cranes his head into the slipstream, and still smashes a 2:22.4 lap record on the penultimate tour.
This episode dives deep into the final flourish of the Improved Production era of the ATCC, the 1972 title fight, and the key players—Bob Jane, Norm Beechey, John Harvey, Doug Chivas, John Goss, Mike Stillwell and a young Peter Brock—before zooming in on the most visceral sprint Bathurst ever saw. We unpack the protest, the physics, and the psychology behind a duel that turned thirteen laps into folklore.
