1980 - Holden Commodore VC - ATCC - MHDT 
1980 was a very good year.  Apart from being a ace race driver, Brock was now a team owner and the builder of custom road cars. All this extra work did nothing to diminish his ability on the track.  He went on take Pole position in all eight ATCC races, become ATCC champion by round 6, take Pole and win the the CRC 250, provide a 1 2 finish in the manufacturers race at Adelaide, win again at Sandown from Pole and murder the opposition  at Bathurst.  This guy likes to keep busy!
1981 - Holden Commodore VC - MHDT 
Brock was so dominate at Bathurst in his Commodore VH in 1982 and 1983.  The car looked good and was bullet proof. 
1982 - Chevy Monza - Sports Sedan - Bob Jane 
Peter Brock drove for Bob Jane in this Monza.  Both Brock and Allan Jones had some memorable battles and dices, American iron against German Porsche.
1982 - Commodore VH - ATCC - MHDT 
In the 1982 Bathurst race, Brock's only competion came from Allan Grice but on lap 11, Grice spun at the bottom of Conrod and Brock was never headed.  Just outside of this shot Peter Janson was spinning wildly as he tried to keep up with Brock for a photo opportunity.  Poor old Janson needed a Cherry Ripe after that wild spin.
1983 - Holden Commodore VH - ATCC - MHDT 
1983 was a great year for Brock.  His cars were fast and reliable, they captured the races that counted most, both Sandown and Bathurst. Brock and Perkins could make two cars capable of winning Bathurst.  A feat only to be repeated again in 1987 by Brock.  Moffat and Johnson tried but failed, Johnson even entered three cars and faltered. Rules have since banned this from being repeated.  God only knows why.  They must have thought it was too easy for Brock and his team!!??
1984 - Holden Commodore VK - ATCC - MHDT 
In late 1994, Brock and his Group C VK big banger, were to good during the long distance races.  The rice burners of Moffat were crushed.  The Datsuns, well they were simply an embarrassment to Nissan.  This car is on its way to victory at Sandown.  They also looked GREAT!
1984 - LeMans
Brock and Perkins put their combined talents towards the Le Man's classic in 1984, it was a bit ironic but it was Perkins who was the name driver as far as the Europeans were concerned.  After bringing the car up through the star studded field to seventh, Perkins crunched the car. The relationship between the two was never the same after this.
