i seen PSI down the drags a couple of weeks ago on a very hot afternoon, he spun the wheels for a quarter of the track. Reminded me of subzero at last years nationals. I'll be heading down the drags but just spectating, the mrs isn't happy but i wouldn't miss it for the world. It'll bo good to see some VL's, last year the only one was the JPC one from Melbourne i think but it was having problems. PSI's car is very nice, i have a VL turbo and my engine bay looks nothing like his, its a beautiful site. Would be good if we could get a VL cruise happening, I've been on plenty of cruises but none with just VL's. See you all down the natinal's!!!!!!!!!

Hey VLTUrbsEx, Yeah that was me, spun the wheels about 1/4 track on my first run.Was spewin, would've looked ok, if you were a spectator!! Only had 3 runs, with a best of an 11.8, gearbox destoyed on that run too. Hoping to crack into the 10's at the nationals, if it's ready in time. Thanks for the comments about the car too. As soon as i've got the car back, WILL post up pics of car, engine.Should be late this week. rajabs,sub-zero,bresciani bros & pretty sure JPC are entering.Jpc is the only one i'm not 100% sure on tho. AERWLK, business name of the guy with the 350 Gemi is, BTR from memory. Like you said, good bloke,quality work, and very good prices to match.He's from Queenstown, near Port Adelaide. Jaytee, His name is Leroy. Ph:0438.327.510 Hopefully we can all meet up for a chat at the Nationals.Be good to put a name to a face!! Nats will be finishing at around 10-11pm i think. Talk soon, PSI.

I will be there for sure (spectating).. Never missed one of these events ever since they started, and my has it grown. Its a pity tho that they are not having a super cruise the night before like they used to, it was awesome seeing 1000+ cars cruising together. I am lucky, its my birthday on the 14th, its valentines day and my missus loves the drags... what more can a man want? hehe If you want to see what big name entrants have entered the nationals, head on over to www.boostinoz.com (http://www.boostinoz.com) which has a list of them. I think I saw JPC and Bresciani are entering. I cant understand why the organisers of Drag Combat decided to have their event on the same day as the Nationals. Its happened last year but with a different event organised by PAC, which always used to come over for the Nationals (it wasnt known as the nationals back then) but I havent seen any PAC car in Adelaide for quite a while.

i ended up going all day and braving the heat. wasn't as good as last year but was still good to see the two top gun VL's, both of them still ran 9's i think. that bresciani vehicle is one sleeper, almost looks as though it could be driven on the street.
