Just thought that i would show you a close up shot of the GTHO Phase 3 that appeared in that TV ad "The Mother of all Performance" and also that starred in the film of "The Chase is on" They certainly were a classic Aussie car

I love these cars. Must be the wog coming out in me. lol
But anyway I was wondering how they handle around corners?
They are so acclaimed power wise but I have never heard much about the handling.
Any info is great thanks
From what i gather ,they were just had brute power but were lacking in the braking and handling department.
Cheers John

she's a beauty. wonder if Ford will ever make a car like that again, just raw performance.
I for one would love to see a blue blooded, octane in the veins, raw grunt supercar. A real masculine car. It'd be great.

The drivers often commented at bathurst how the skinny 15"s wheels (from memory) would squeal like mad as they hurled the cars through the corners. Moffat claimed they were way under tyred and that the brakes needed attention.
The Chase is on
What movie is this ? When was it released etc ?
