The Lap That Broke The Mountain

Saturday afternoon, Mount Panorama, Top 10 Shootout. Greg Murphy's #51 K-Mart Commodore VY turned a lap nobody thought possible: 2:06.8594, the first touring car lap under 2:07 in Bathurst history. More than a second clear of anyone else in the session, it earned a standing ovation from the pitlane and became known as the "Lap of the Gods". It stood as the fastest V8 Supercar lap ever seen at the Mountain for seven years.

The next day, Murphy did what the pole-sitter is supposed to do. Alongside a 20-year-old Rick Kelly, the youngest Bathurst winner in the race's history, Murphy stamped his authority on the 161-lap classic, leading the FPR Falcon of Craig Lowndes and Glenn Seton home by just under five seconds. It was Murphy's third crown, Holden's fifth straight at the Mountain, and the first of back-to-back wins for the pair.

The race wasn't without controversy. Mark Skaife and Todd Kelly were running second with nine laps remaining when contact with John Bowe dislodged the passenger door. Officials black-flagged them back to the pits for repairs, dropping them to eighth. Skaife was furious. He insisted the door was already broken when Bowe hit it, but the rule was the rule, and third place went to the battlers Steve Ellery and Luke Youlden.

The winning car? HRT Chassis 043, built by the Holden Racing Team but running in K-Mart colours that season. It had won the 2000 Queensland 500 in Lowndes' hands before being converted to VY specification. The Lap of the Gods was set in this very chassis, one of the most significant Commodores in the sport's history, now a genuine collector car.

This was K-Mart Racing's defining hour, and a lap permanently etched into Bathurst lore.
