• Larry Perkins was the only Commodore driver in the runoff to actually have a Holden V8 engine in his car. The rest of the Holden runners had the 5.0L Chevrolet engine in their cars.
• David Brabham became the first second generation driver to compete in the runoff, emulating his triple Formula One World Championship winning father Jack who drove in the inaugural Top 10 runoff in 1978. By coincidence, both finished their respective runoffs in 8th position. The younger Brabham also became the 6th ex-F1 driver to qualify for the runoff following Jack Brabham, Derek Bell, Larry Perkins, Johnny Cecotto and Alan Jones.
• After the Ford EB Falcons had dominated the first six rounds of the ATCC, CAMS allowed a new aero package for the Holden VP Commodores. At Bathurst this allowed the Commodore runners to qualify almost 3 seconds faster than they had in 1992 while the fastest Ford driver in official qualifying Glenn Seton could only improve his 1992 time by 1.2 seconds.
• The first driver to run against the clock, Neil Crompton, spun on oil coming into Caltex Chase on his fast lap. During his television interview upon returning to the pits, an angry Crompton said he was stunned to find oil flags waving going into the chase and questioned why the drivers were not told about the oil before the runoff started. As it happened, it was his own GIO Commodore that had been dropping the oil onto the track during both his warm up and official lap, causing grip problems for the next eight drivers to run. Only Perkins and a last out Dick Johnson said that they found none of the oil.
