Английская Википедия:2001 Australian GT Production Car Championship
Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use Australian English The 2001 Australian GT Production Car Championship was a CAMS sanctioned motor racing title open to production cars.[1] It was the sixth Australian GT Production Car Championship to be awarded.[2]
The Australian championship was won by Queensland driver Brett Peters, driving a Subaru Impreza WRX ran by the Rod Dawson led Peters Motorsport team. Peters took a 28.5 championship victory over fellow Subaru driver Wayne Boatwright with HSV driver Phillip Polities a further 21.5 points back in third.
The series ran on an eleven-round calendar but not all of the five classes raced at every meeting, with each class racing eight of the eleven rounds. The separated calendar was the beginning of the separation of competitors into what would become completely separate championships in 2003 as the Australian Performance Car Championship and Australian Production Car Championship. The separation additionally meant that drivers on the second group of classes were no longer eligible for the Australian Championship.
