Worth remembering the two Touring Car meetings shown were not Championship rounds, they were support races for other meetings (eg.. the second meeting was the 1971 AGP support races), which would have affected the entry to these races. Also Improved Touring was always thin on frontrunners, field depth only arrived to any real extent with Group C in 1973.

Definatly, though my comment was more aimed at the 1968 Tasman race
