Really hope he does produce what he promotes otherwise he will have a mass exit from the events future

When you have 100k+ car out of shape at probably 80 kays you're probably not thinking about sinking the boot in further to battle it... that and not everyone is a pro drifter! It even made it to the news in Australia tonight.

I never got my camera out it was just to wet but plenty of pics and vids up on fb and the like

far out, didnt realise he got knocked out. out for the count, or crying for his loss.

Was that Camaro steel front?

Yeah it was but space frame chassis, it just crumpled....as you can see

Made 377 rwkw at 7psi boost should make 500 rwkw plus when they crank it up. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Made 377 rwkw at 7psi boost should make 500 rwkw plus when they crank it up.[/QUOTE] yes but all that heat coming to the front with headers and turbo jammed up by the radiator and i/cooler ??? i love the engine but don think suited to this car. when it went round the track didnt last lomg even i the wet!! how will it cope in mid summer? i had these rides on the satrday at powercruise flamn8 - vk 308 targa setup very smooth power 74pig - 470ci blowen hz wagon insane 100hp in the wet !! vl calias rb30et- 340kw at wheels- power came on to late for my likings ilitup-570kw ve gts hsv mean 100k plus car and my favorite for wet hooning!!! vt 5.7 standard 6spd- smooth power also regrets for no pics but was so wet !!! hope for sun and a dyno next year !!

How else are you going to mount the turbo? not alot of options there and thats pretty much how the pros set em up. Personal dont see it being a problem... Who's calais turbo was that you rode in? 74pig- ol Bear, hes an animal aye, does sweet burnouts. he looked like he wanted to skull fark me, he had parked in my camp and park when i was away, came back and asked him to move, was bit heated there for a while then he charmed down and said sorry must be the Maori in me trying to claim land. lol

Couple of shots of VLs in this vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=nrxA7pp_EWw (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=nrxA7pp_EWw)

Ha you can't expect too much out of a little 30et with a decent sized turbo on it, and in the wet lighting up in 3rd commin on to boost, if you have no lag you have not turbo, and no huge torque increase to look foward to.
