can't argue the fact that wsid is an awesome venue. those tracks in vic look like local goat track venues... we really are spoilt up here.

At the moment these boys are on top of it all & imo will be the next vl into the 7's if Joe's beast doesnt get their first! And Julz, Cant say all the Sydney shops are down with the rb30.. took you a few attempts to end up at Maatouks. Anyone got vids???

A good track, a clutchless and a mad man behind the wheel. I think a Melbourne shop was the first to actually get these engines into gear, took ages for anyone to catch up. The correlation between the top two small tyred vl's compared to the others is? Anyway back on topic, what an awesome effort by Maatouk to get the time and mph he did, sure does deserve the 7. Very aggresive and very consistant, just seems to lower that time with every outing. Same goes to Pac with their car, both cars not far off that 7. Let's see the God hit that 7 before Maatouk rapes everyone with his Race Car. Any other goss on this MotorTech car? Any pictures or videos of any of the runs?
