Thanks for Vic Hoon Driving Stats, I was a big fan of the driver/trainer Vic Frost who drove on my favourite pacer Westburn Grant, have you got his stats?

You're kidding aren't you? Commodores should be banned and their drivers institutionalised.

My guess is the 16.9% that were Fords were EAs because they were so ugly and looked like VNs Commodores!
