WTF
They replaced the 350 first gen monaro with the 6 cylinder torrie
From the 6 cylinder torrie they went the LH/LX torrie (308 powered)
These were well fast (power to wieght will do that)
Then the 308 powered VB/VC/VH commondores
VK went 304 due to overseas racing (under 5 litre class)
Yes Geoghegan had race win domination (look what he was racing against)
Most wins in australian racing history 308

At the time they ran the 6 cylinder torrie they still were selling 350 powered monaros. The stratergy wasn't to be fast from GMH. It was to win with less pitstops.
Geoghan was racing against names like Beechy, Bartlet, Bob Jane, John Harvey, John French, and Allan Moffat. Competing against cars like the 327 monaro and 327 camaro.
Most wins in Australian racing history? What through Group A and V8SC days? I hardly call that a production motor. Thats like racing a 600hp 2 litre sierra and claiming it was close to production specs. At no time other than V8SC has the 308 dominated anything. We all know how fair V8SC is.
