However if a mod agrees with you than they can remove whatever they feel is irrelevant.

I love it. one of the best weekends I've had in a while. me and my mate had an adventure LOL. it was good drinking and chatting away, even though i was the first one at the Black Swan LOL forgot what time the event started. all good but cause they don't ask for ID haha

Saturday was a very big let down for me, was hoping to see alot of vls but was **** all turnout! Got there at 10, didnt see any racing till 2ish(bad weather so cant help that) then left at 4, didnt like paying $25 to watch wat felt like 10runs! Hope sunday was better cos sat was ****! Hope the next vl nats is ALOT better and bigger

Any results from today?

I have a few photos some of you might like, Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I hear from a reliable source that 'SHER1F' is Pro Steet champion. Don't know any times or anything else though. Does anyone know who 'JW Automotive' is? Can build a tuff engine by the looks of things. If the 'SHER1F's set up is anything to go by. Good job

wowww didnt think anyone would even look at the car lol. nice piks. only reason why it was in there, was because i didnt want to park the car outside, would rather keep a close eye on it, then next thing you know i hear my rego get called out on the p.a lol will post up some piks i took soon, and have plenty of vids.

Well done to Steve (XCHASE) and his team for all their hard work organising the first ever VL Turbo Nationals Few pics... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

some vey nice vls there this is what keeps me motivated to keep doing my vl up.

afg-wpn Thanx buddie of to make next year

I rocked up at 12:30 today and left at around 4:30 ish... was an OK day. The weather held out and there was not a rain drop on the track for the time that I was there. Pics will be uploaded later on. Highlights. Ford XR6 Green Machine...... fuc.k this thing looked FAST and pulled low 9s to boot. Better 60ft times and traction sorted off the line and it would run 8s all day. I loved how it just hooked up and went like a cut snake after the first 75-100m. Maatouks VLs - Running well and in the 9s. Good to see they made the trip. Magenta/Pink VL - This looked great and certainly at home. Ran 10.90s which is pretty respectable for the setup. SXYVLT - Great looking example of what a calais can look with the right formula. Candy Red + FR19s.... sex on wheels. Gemini - Awesome to watch and launch.... such a scary ride getting all loose 1/4 to full track. That driver has serious skills to get that thing firing straight and not into a wall. Kudos! Ran 8.6 or 8.4 when I was there. Ignite Red VLT from QLD - Had some miss firing issues towards the end and ran A 9.26 or 9.16 earlier in the session. Turbos: GT42 and GT51R were the flavor of the day for the 10/9 sec VLs with a few GT35/T04Z thrown in the mix.. The GT55 (?) on the QSR Gemi was massive. 1.22 rear housing, huge front housing and inducer was at least 88mm... It made the RB30 look like small like a 4cylinder ! Lowlights Traction or lack of. All the guys running under 11s had traction issues, with or without slicks/massive burnouts - Maybe the track at heathcote isnt as grippy as some of the home tracks? Mechanical Problems - Most of the VLs out there had break down issues, from coils to tail shafts dropping out... I'm comforted by the fact that all of these guys have spent big bucks an still sh.it happens on the track - I thought I was the only one that had the tough luck when getting cars ready to race lol. Most of them were fixed on the day. Police at the end of the track exit - They were pulling people over for RBTs etc. I saw a white VLT Berlina get pulled up and the cop looked like was giving him a griilling and wanted to open the bonnet etc. Thankfully they let me and a burgandy/silver calais "stephs auto works" through without a problem or 2nd look. So CBF getting pulled up and EPA/Defected for leaving a racetrack without comitting a crime or speeding. Poor turn out for a heathcote meet - the quicker cars saved the day and added the value for money, but there should have been at least 50-75 cars racing on the day, at the track.

No i have not had any work done by justin i used to help him out alot with cars he was doing but my brother inlaw got his vlt up grade's & tuned it had 250.000km & made 400rwhp on 18psi & still going strong with factory standard bottom end
