Nationallube brings the Thunder to Sandown


Nationallube, the flagship brand of Emirates Lube Oil Co, Ltd. (ELCO), will launch its premium automotive and industrial lubricants on the Australian market in spectacular style at this year’s 18th Historic Sandown from November 6-8.

The Nationallube Historic Sandown will see more than 300 cars spanning six decades racing at the popular Melbourne metropolitan circuit over two days.

At least 16 of the meeting’s races will feature thundering V8-engined touring, sports and open-wheeler racing cars.

They include the final round of the 2009 Biante Touring Car Masters series – which is guaranteed to go down to the wire – plus races for Group N, Group C and Group A Touring Cars from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. More......


Three generations of Brabhams on track at Nationallube Historic Sandown


Three generations of Australia’s first family of motorsport will be on track at this year’s 18th Nationallube Historic Sandown from November 6-8.

Two of the Brabhams will fight it out in a unique speed comparison on the 3.1km Melbourne metropolitan circuit.

Le Mans and Bathurst Geoff Brabham at the wheel of a current model V8-engined BMW M3 coupe will be pitted against his 15 year-old son Matthew in a current model Spectrum Formula Ford, while four-time Australian champion and fellow Bathurst winner John Bowe will drive a race-prepared GT40 replica.

Biante TCM down to the wire at Historic Sandown


The 2009 Biante Touring Car Masters is set for a thundering series finale between reigning champion Gavin Bullas from Victoria and former Bathurst winner and V8 Supercar driver John Bowe at this year’s Nationallube Historic Sandown from November 6-8.

With 180 points still on offer after six rounds and two highly sought after trophies up for grabs, all attention is squarely on the current series points standings.

In the outright Group 1 championship, the Rain City Mustang of Bullas sits 126 points ahead of Bowe’s WesTrac Camaro SS, with Brad Tilley in his XY GT Falcon still mathematically in the hunt. More.....


Biante Touring Cars in thundering

Historic Sandown finale



The thundering Biante Touring Car Masters will be on the grid for the first time at Melbourne’s major historic race meeting, Historic Sandown, over the November 6-8 weekend this year.

Up to 35 V8 Mustangs, Falcons, Holdens and Camaros and a pack of rapid Porsches and Toranas will compete in the seventh and final round of the 2009 Biante Touring Car Masters series, which like Historic Sandown, is sponsored by Shannons Insurance.

It is hoped the category’s guest appearance may become a regular feature of Historic Sandown meetings, which are organised by the Victorian Historic Racing Register.

Touring car greats Jim Richards, John Bowe, Steven Richards and Glenn Seton are amongst top drivers who have competed in the Biante series, which has become one of Australia’s most popular categories in just a few years.

At Sandown the Biante cars will join bumper fields of Group N Historic touring cars from the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s, plus events for Group C and Group A touring cars from the 1970s and 1980s on the most exciting touring car programme ever presented at the annual Historic meeting.
