John Goss (racing Driver) - Formula 5000

Formula 5000

Goss won the Sandown Park round of the 1975 Tasman Series and the 1976 Australian Grand Prix at Sandown Park in Victoria, driving an Australian built Matich A53 Repco Holden in both events. In doing so he became the only driver to ever win both the Bathurst 1000 and the Australian Grand Prix. During the mid-1970 Goss was concentrating his racing efforts more on the F5000 than his Croup C Falcons and ever loyal to Ford tried to run the A53 with a 5.0L Ford V8 but the concept had little success and replaced by the Repco Holden.
