Back in 1975 Noel Glass and Jack Lock travelled from South Australia to compete in the TOCOAN Rally in a pink Torana XU-1, named and known by all as The Pink Panther. In an era before the road across the Nullabor was fully sealed, Noel & Jack overcame a range of obstacles and hurdles to come and compete in the West. They finished in the top 5 at the event, beating a number of established local crews.
In recognition of their effort, The Pink Panther trophy was established to encourage participation in the sport, and over the years has been awarded to a ‘whos who’ of people who have gone on to succeed and contribute substantially to our sport.
