The penultimate round, round 8 of the Shell Australian Touring Car Championship (ATCC) held at Lakeside Raceway in Queensland on July 14 1991. With stronger pace from all the top teams, all the contenders were running faster than they were in round 4 with some running a little too hard resulting in excessive tyre wear.
The Benson & Hedges team of Tony Longhurst and Alan Jones took a giant killing 1 2 victory in their BMW M3 Evolutions from Jim Richards in the Gibson Motorsport Nissan Skyline R32 GT-R.
