A name synonymous with Drag Racing here in W.A, another Gullotto and another solid race package!
With wifey Steph racing the VN SS, Matt campaigns his NA Holden Powered VL Calais and between the two are a force to be reckoned with down at the track.
Matt brough the VL down to get a heap of laps in on the freshly prepped track surface, and with another rock solid SCM powerplant up front the car didn’t miss a beat all day.
Matt has spent a fair amount of time on our channel before, crewing for the extended family on the Wild V8 Turbo 1UZFE 2000+ HP Soarer (go and check that out on our channel too), the man behind the mic and making sure the Soarer is lined up perfectly for launch – it was about time we gave Matt some air time in his own car!
If you haven’t seen the behind the scenes documentary on what went into the track for the upcoming days prior to this event go and have a look!
The prep video has been months in the making – with alot of thought, effort and preparation behind the scenes (and we mean ALOT) to make this a truly unique and educational watch for anyone interested in learning just what it takes to turn a track from ‘ok’ to ‘elite’!
Seeing some of the W.A Radial Cars finally get the track they’ve been dreaming of here at the Perth Motorplex in Western Australia was a huge deal, and it’s definitely only just the beginning now that we’ve seen what is actually capable.
Check out the interviews with the experts – Justin, Lorenzo and Brendan to get the ins and outs of the weekend and what it took to put this educational documentary together.
