For those who care or remember RooF's/SILVERVLV8 old VL V8 BT1 was stolen a couple of weeks ago and was in a high speed chase and ended up with a head on with a cop car about 25-30km's for where it was stolen and was written off. The car was sold to a mate of Atmo3L's/Oldgolds from Kris (all the info i have posted has come from atmo3l) and he was trying to sell it coz he bought a VN with grp A running gear. The car had a 355 stroker and recond g/box,a 90L alloy drop tank a ****ing loud exhaust and a few other mods. I only saw it go a couple of times and i heard it but it sounded ****ing good and i have been told it was bull**** fast. It had heaps of money spent on it, sad to see it was stolen coz it was a nice car.
Sorry to hear that.
It was a very tidy car, with some serious power to match.
Done nice smoke shows too...
Kris was never scared to light her up, was he?

Thats a shame, wheres a Bat when ya need one
So what happened to all the bits n pieces from the car? Someone should grab em and fit them to another VL, that was an expensive engine!

Yes, the machine was stolen & written off in a police chase, apparantly had a head-on with a police car(!) and is a complete mess.
The owner may or may not be buying the shell, I'm not sure, I heard he was. Having been in a head on, I'm not sure how much damage the engine sustained, but I think the buyback price was close to $1000. It had a Harrop stroker crank in it too, almost brand new. I think it was a 383 as well. And as Sacha said, yeah, it was bullsh!t fast.
I'll get pics if I can.
this car did 13's yeah ??
kris should have got more vids of it.. cause i only got 2... and they dont really show the full potential of the car....
oh well.. such is life. unlucky for the owner now.
this hurts me deeply. RIP ol VL V8
