unusual facts about Holden Commodore SS Group A


1988 Oran Park 250

The race saw the world debut of the TWR developed Holden VL Commodore SS Group A SV in the hands of Sydney based privateer Garry Willmington.


Peter McLeod

Like all Commodore runners, McLeod upgraded to the newly homologated Holden VK Commodore SS Group A for 1986.

McLeod joined formula 2 racer John Crooke in car #10 (Brock's 1986 car upgraded to VL Group A specs).

Following the ATCC, McLeod built a new 'Walkinshaw' spec VL Commodore Group A SV with the engine and suspension supplied by the Peter Brock organisation, who by that stage were running the BMW M3's.
