The 2 door Hilux Ute campaigned by the Whisson family was one of those left field cars that you don’t see (or hear) very often – and it definitely caught our eye.
Whilst taking the opportunity to get some more seat time in the car at the recent private track hire, the team managed to get the car down for the quickest pass they’d done to date and finished the day off with a new PB!
This relatively small capacity engine certainly punches out some serious horsepower and it has no issue picking up that front end on launch!
We’re definitely keen to get more of this one on camera and hope to see the car back again soon.
