Glenn Seton Racing
Glenn Seton Racing was an Australian motor racing team which competed in the V8 Supercars Championship Series between 1989 and 2002. History Group A At the end of 1988, Philip Morris were dissatisfied with the level of signage it was offered at Nissan Motorsport and thus concluded a deal with Nissan driver Glenn Seton and his engine-builder father Barry to form a team in 1989 with a Ford Sierra RS500. Only one car was raced in the Australian Touring Car Championship with the team expanding to two cars for the Sandown 500 and Bathurst 1000 endurance races each year. In 1990 the team expanded to running two cars full-time with Drew Price and Seton's former Nissan team mate George Fury driving the second car. Peter Jackson Racing, as the team was known with its sponsorship from Philip Morris, reverted to a single Sierra for 1991, though the second car was again put in use during the endurance races. For 1992, the team again expanded to two cars for the ATCC, one for Seton and th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Gibson Motorsport
Gibson Motorsport was an Australian motor racing team that competed in the Australian Touring Car Championship from 1981 until 2003, though the team had its roots in Gibson's "Road & Track" team which ran a series of Ford Falcon GTHOs in Series Production during the late 1960s and early 1970s. The name of the team was also the name of Fred Gibson's automotive business in Sydney. As Gibson was also a driver for the Ford Works Team, his team was sometimes a pseudo-works team when the Ford factory did not enter. History Group C The team was established by Howard Marsden in 1981 as the in-house factory Nissan motorsport operation after Nissan decided to change from rallying to touring car racing. It made its debut in the 1981 James Hardie 1000 at Bathurst. A limited campaign in the 1982 Australian Touring Car Championship was followed by a more concerted effort in the 1982 Australian Endurance Championship, with Nissan winning the Makes title in that series.

This, and his performances in his self-funded Commodore in the 1983 ATCC, brought him to the attention of Peter Brock and the Holden Dealer Team, and with the help of Janson he ...

Since 2001, the race is run on the weekend after the long weekend, normally the second weekend in October. Race winners are presented with the ''Peter Brock Trophy''.
