I was invited along to Wanneroo Raceway to check out Darren’s awesome Supercharged VL Calais as they test the car out after completing the build.
Darren bought the tubbed VL with an N/A LS1 which was removed from the car and replaced with a Mild Supercharged LS1 with minimal boost.
Darren started out with a few laps of the track before noticing the Fans weren’t working. With the track hired for only 2 hours the crew spent a considerable amount of time trying to locate the electrical issue, which was temporarily fixed for one Burnout but a flat battery also prevented any further testing for the day.
Once the electrics are sorted and a diff gear change to 3.0 (currently 3.70) we’ll see the VL out at Burnout King or UBC.
