I was right behind the white VL calais with Dont ****en ask writen on the car when it crashed. I saw the whole thing! He basically just tried to go too sideways for too long and lost it into the wall. i think the problem was the fact that the straight had a barrier half way down it not allowing people to do high speeds so therefor they were all just doing burnouts and tring to go sideways! Also this cashed a massive traffic jam. They need to change it or the nats will start to die down because it was not run as good as other years!

A few nice Vl's turbos at easternats... WLDPSI, and purple over silver vl has a rb26-30, big turbo 8O looped it on sunday morning... smashing the front and rear of the car... Big accident on the front straight on friday were a tiger mica VH hit a VR clubsport.... appartenely the guy in the vh thought it was days of thunder and flattened it through the smoke haise.. uwanit.. very nice car.. the guy who owns it said it has made 240rwkw, and its auto not manual 8O , nice purple vl with 19's... was for sale aswell.. too bad it was auto :cry: SIKPSI.. did nice burnouts, but at one stage couldnt even beat a new VXSS in the drags... QIKENF.. nice car... but plates are a bit gay for a car that runs 13.9's?? if i am correct.. not bagging it.. GLDJET made a apperence on the sunday with 2 BT1's.. Also on sunday near the end of the burnout comp a huge fight erupted in the stands! LOL, had a bird's eye view... Overall not bad, but dispointed not to see as many vl's..

Esspecially after all the time, effort and big $$$ that went into building this car up that is still an unfinshed project! He has been building this car over 3 years and as you may know it isnt a cheap project. Have you ever looked at the car and realised its one of the cleanest VL Turbos out on the street? You do realise that the car is no were near finished yet as its very hard to spend all your money at once on a car. I beleive he has done a great job in building up one of the most neat, clean and tidy VL turbos around!!! Dont forget that his car is actually not slow unless you call a 12sec car slow. both him and I used to race eachother all the time and we were always dead even. My car ran a 12.10 @ 111 MPH and iv never heard one of you guys call my old VL slow! Also my old car had a motec, better injectos, surge tank, fuel pumps, t04, 45 mm EXT wastegate and his car is far from being that modified and still was dead even with me on the street. Im sure that in the future his car will be a bit faster but you do have to remember that for some of us, money doesnt grow on trees. Im sure he could have gone out there and spent all the money on running gear and not the looks and he would have a 9 sec car sitting there, but he wants the car to looks nice and clean. He doesnt want the car to be fast and look like ****.

I wasn't suggesting it was a **** car VLMuzza but from all reports I have heard from a lot of people I thought it was a very quick car. But unless that VX SS had a ****load of work done to the engine then it did get chopped by a fair amount. It surprised a lot of us to see it get beat so easy. And I know that money doesn't grow on trees, I have a house and a VL turbo that I try and spend money on. It is very hard.

There was also a nice BT1 with R8 wheels that looked the business. Looked from what l could see that it had R8 brakes as well. Anyone know anything about this. Also it seemed that he may of got a BOV for his birthday judging by the amount of times he floored it and backed of in the pits. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Hey peoples, the weekend was great, nice to see new faces and the usual boys, done an airflow meter on saturday but got it fixed and was back on the track. Poor Tommy (WYDPSI) hit the wall on the straight pretty hard on sunday, him and his g/f are allrite just a little shocked. I think OSOQIK wrote this : ... QIKENF.. nice car... but plates are a bit gay for a car that runs 13.9's?? if i am correct.. not bagging it.. Thanks man , by the way the car has ran a 12.7 at 108mph ... and more to come very soon ....
