But when you do look closer at this car (and I have seen this car at a show in Brissy in 96) this thing is awsome with it attention to detail and that is why it became a Grand Champion. But its human nature that people start to complain when cars like this take out award meant for Street cars (cars driven on the street Apparently ). So in the end cars like this now are put in the Australian Pro Street class there is now a Super Street class and a Real Street class. Street Machine also brought out the SMOTY (Street Machine Of The Year) voted buy the readers of Street Machine. This was all forced to happen because of this car. morepsi, name the fasterst VL back in 88 to 96. Anyway try and get your fasterst VL in the world comply then compete in Pro Street. Let alone win over 300 trophies at Summernats over a 10 year period. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

And when you look in Street Machine the cars are still tough and tough looking. Its the only mag I buy.
