TROPHIES AND CASH FOR DRIVING EVENT WINNERS!
We will now be running full competition Powerskids and Burnouts with
trophies and prize-money for each. Trophies from First to 10th in the
Burnouts and for First and Second place in the Powerskids.
No, the entry fee will not be going up and will stay at just $40 until the
day. We have a bunch of kick-ass trophies for these events and will pay
$1000, $500 and $250 for top three places in the burnouts and $300 for the
best Powerskid on the day. We are still working on the drag racing licence
and will keep you up to date on this over the next few days!
************************************************** ***
With just two weeks to go to Revfest things are really on the wind up. As luck has
it our original date of the 31st looks like it would have been rained out anyway.
There�s some really exciting stuff happening behind the scenes at the moment. These
crazy guys from Team Cunning Stunts will be providing some awesome burnout and
wheel-stand demonstrations on their bikes and it looks like Team Armygeddon will be
attending the Revfest with a couple of their custom built burnout machines.
Locally, the boys at Kranky Kustoms have been on the tools to get Dayna Gough�s
burnout comp-winning, Clevo-powered XD up and running with a new supercharger and
injector hat. This fire-breathing monster should really stick it to the boys in the
burnout and Power skid demonstrations.
Other cool cars from the same stables would surely include Dan Cox's, Morris 8
Hot Rod. It�s got a tunnel-rammed 350 Chev up front with pretty smick custom trim.
The car is currently on the front cover of Nitro magazine.
Also from Kranky Kustoms is Peter Bink's, immaculate VG Valiant Hardtop. The 265
Hemi-powered couple probably wont get a run in the driving events but will be a
welcomed addition to the Show and Shine.
One of the big hitters that has confirmed his attendance is Frank Mamone and his
10.5 hemi-powered, blown and injected Chevy Nova. This hard-charging USA streeter
car will have the crowd screaming for more when he amps it up in the Power Skids.
Summernats Tuff Street winner, Rodney Waters will be bringing his amazing, 1500hp,
blown and injected, 632ci big-block Chev-powered HQ streeter and Rodney has
assured us of a big show with this car.
We�ve got loads more happening and we will update daily as we get closer.
For families, we�ve organized a bunch of kids rides so there is something for
everyone at Revfest. Just a reminder that if you want to enter the Show and Shine
with your car for free, you MUST fill in and entry for and email or post it in to us.
If you are unsure whether your car qualifies, you should email us a pic.
Stay tuned for more updates.
