Yeah the XA has really long gears. Easily solved by "sport" transmission upgrade and shorter rear end ratio.

I find it annoying we have to switch to the sports transmission to change the rear end gear though, should be a separate upgrade. The XA Falcon is cool though, it's one of the few muscle cars where upgrading to sport transmission doesn't give it a 5th gear, so you can keep that "proper" muscle car 4 speed.
This was a godsend for the Aussie Classics series, thank you!
This sort of low PI series with classic muscle is the perfect fun series for me, at least it would have been if I hadn't been spun by the AI at Turn 1 of Sebring Short, Turn 3 of Sebring Short and halfway up the hill STRAIGHT at Bathurst. The idiot AI behind me wanted to be where my left rear was, so it could slavishly follow the racing line on the right hand side of the straight up the hill. Hit Rewind and then the ****er did the same thing again! Nearly threw the controller at the screen at that point...

Honestly, at this point the divebombing and spinning by the AI is spoiling the game almost totally (for me at least), as it happens in 50% of races, and I can't put up with it much longer.

I know it might remove the realism but in the Accessibility options you can turn off Collisions in Single Player. I use it sometimes.
 
I'd like to see some rules being enforced, and flags used. Is this possible with the game?
I know single player has rules that gives penalties for cutting corners and hitting other drivers. The latter in with the Sports rules and Expert rules. Club rules doesn't penalize for ramming though. Edit: Flags aren't used as far as I can see.
