Default MOTOR's PCOTY Round #1

Results:

3rd BF Falcon XR6 Turbo (auto)
2nd BF Falcon XR6 Turbo (manual)
1st BF Falcon FPV F6 Typhoon (auto)

The Ford V8's all finished behind the H*ldens with:

BF Falcon XR8 7th
BF Falcon FPV GT 8th

That out of an 8 car field

They did mention that the XR8 could win an Oscar for its sound

That's good and bad news.Bit of a shame that a Ford production model actually beat FPV's top of the range.

I think the idea of the PCOTY rounds is a great idea!! Involves more cars, concentrate on the important stuff a bit longer (due to lesser cars in each griup compared to previous PCOTY years). The all Aussie stuff was fantastic, I'm looking forward to the European stuff too. But the final will be awesome. The best cars from each category, plus a few "wildcards".....Will be interesting to see how the "VE Wildcard" compares to the Generals stuff in this issue....
