Was a great night to watch in terms of VLs..
I wouldn't say Joe's car has the traction issue completely sorted yet, he did extremely well to keep it off the wall on one run.
It was very skatey down the deep end, awesome car to watch race.
Glad I stayed til the end to see Maatouk go 8.1

Congrats to both Anthony and the Maatouks team and to Joe and the Pac crew!
I was contemplating going but wasn't feeling the best. Regret it now

What a night, lebo joe and his traction issue, that car got a long way to go to get his back tyres to grip.. well done to him for his 8.2 pass still spinning out of the whole and top end of the track still skating along and getting real dangerous. loved the way he drives that killerb.
as for anth, see ya on power cruise..the Original VL GOD is going out aswell side by side lol. i bet you cant wait to see your old pink VL GOD do some side by side drifing with you you in the passenger seat lol.. by the waypink a faster colour :P
