Here's the last of my three MOCs. This one is a 1977 Holden Torana. It was created to take on the big Falcon's in Australian touring cars, by putting a large 5 litre V8, in what was a comparatively small sedan. It was a great idea, but executed too quickly. The V8 was only tested on a dyno, but when put in a racecar, the high cornering speeds caused oil surges and creating reliability issues. These were fixed in the followup XU1, which became dominant.

That didn't stop Holden fans from buying the SLR5000 in droves.

My SLR5000 features:

- Full independent suspension.

- Remote control driven by 2 L motors  servo and sbrick.

- V8 motor

- 4 opening doors, bonnet and boot.
