Greg Murphy's Top Ten Shootout lap in the 2003 Bathurst 1000, dubbed the 'Lap of the Gods' is an iconic Bathurst moment.

For all the drama of 126 seconds, the lap will stand for a lifetime, and it's not just that he took a massive bite out of his competitors' laps, or that he went below the record so emphatically.

He did it at such a venue, on such an occasion, under so much pressure, with the lap record not broken for another seven years.

The day in 2003 Kiwi Greg Murphy took pole in record time at Bathurst is still remarkable, and the celebration, with his rivals applauding him as he cycled down the lane, stands tall above Bathurst’s most revered moments.
