Austarion

Hi guys,
New member, long time fan of the Starion, Unfortunatly I do not own one however I do own another rare mitsu known as a Cyborg.

The reason for me posting here is because I'm sure you guys will appreciate these pictures.

These are snapshots taken from The Great Race - The Turbolent Years. 1986 - 1992 I beleive this is the very first drift shown on Australian Television.

Comming down the Esses and into Forrest Elbow..







Brad Jones drove a Starion but ended up beaching it alongside a VK Commo.


And here's another one that had some problems

hi and welcome!

nice footage that, not sure about the first drift part though! plenty of other claims to that...

will have to get myself a copy, is it on a currently available dvd??

and that last black car is a mustang, the ford badge explains why it had problems LOL

i have the video of that! It was at Bathurst! :D

Brocky did some good power slides but would you call it drifting?
I should've said... to my knowladge that is the first Japanese car drift on Australian national television..

The black car is what the English commentator called a Meetsoobeeshi Stariaan :)

And the DVD is still available, have a quick search on ebay.

enjoy,

nice pics

definately not a starion at the bottom tho, check out the small b pillar.

damn that must of been a few years ago the track looks a bit different now!
