You can’t miss Dean’s car down at the track, being Orange it definitely stands out!

This tough little RX3 goes like a rocket, we managed to catch a couple of passes from last weekend that we thought we would share. We plan to do a feature on The Perthorican this season so stay tuned for that.

The RX3 runs a Rotomotion prepped Billet 13B backed by a GForce 5 Speed and fed with plenty of boost from a Garrett GTX5533R Turbo. The car makes over 1000hp at 35psi, and is controlled by a Motec M150 ECU.

The name ‘ The Perthorican’ is a tribute to the home of the worlds fastest Puerto Rican Rotaries.

The car currently runs in the boost limited RR/API Class and set even more PB’s over the weekend, including 3 track records for Speed and ET in Qualifying!

We definitely can’t wait to get up close and personal with this one.

We had a heap of other content from last weekend’s Round One Season Opener at the Perth Motorplex so we thought we had better get it all wrapped up and together for you guys to watch!

A bit of a mish mash of classes, so if there is anyone you know in this video make sure you share it with them so they can check it out!

From Super Street and Sedan, Top Comp, Super Comp, Modified and Top Sportsman plus probably a couple of others – so many classes to try and keep track of 😀

We knew it was only a matter of time before we saw the Torana into the zone that everybody had hoped for, after making a couple of tweaks since Powerpalooza which was holding the car back in the last half of the track – the boys had the Torana dialled for the Season Opener and definitely produced the results in return!

Can only see this car going faster and faster, and to get it into that 6 second zone so quickly after a complete transformation of what the car was is a true testament to the hard work, professionalism and team collaboration over at the McClure Motorsport Stable!

Never get bored of watching these cars, be it in the grandstand or right up close – either way you know you’re in for an enteraining ride from start to finish!

We pulled together the runs from the Supercharged Outlaw and Top Doorslammer Classes for an action packed video which gives you a pretty good insight into of how much of a handful these cars really are! The guys behind the wheel are true professionals and at the top of their game.

Turn it up as they don’t get much angrier than this outside of the Nitromethane classes!

It feels like forever but we are finally at that time of year again!

Just a small field in OLR for this round, with 4 of our favourite cars back down at the track to blow those off season cobwebs out and put on a show!

From Tim in the WILD wheelstanding 12A Turbo Rotary Datsun Ute, Ben in his SOHC powered rocketship Mustang, Kevins heavy hitting big block powered Trans AM and ofcourse Connors Twin Turbo ultra tough Tonner.

Some awesome side by side passes and a few tyre zingers, but all in all a great day with Kevin taking out the round win.

More familiar faces brought thier cars down to Powerpalooza to get a few laps in with a great crowd turnout! With a selection of cars who run in the modified class from T Buckets to Front Engine Dragsters it was great side by side racing.

Unfortunately Nicholas Wroe got a bit loose at half track and his car flipped over in spectacular fashion sliding to a stop, Nicholas was ok thankfully and the team are already working on the car getting it back to race ready again!

Two of the Jet Engine Powered Dragsters got the crowd going at the recent event showcasing all facets of the sport and venue!

A favourite with both big and little kids, hearing the jet turbine engines wind up and feeling the aftershocks as they put on a show and then lay down some blistering side by side times while burning the afterburners and trailing massive flames the whole way down the track !

The up and coming stars of our sport came out to showcase where it all begins, the super competitive bracket of Junior Dragster is always awesome to watch. With the drivers taking it just as serious as the top level cars!

Honing their skills and building their confidence, these scaled down versions of dragsters are just as much fun to watch as any of the other cars!

And they’re actually alot faster than most people probably realise 🙂

The Torana that’s been sending you guys into a frenzy on our channel came out to get some more seat time ahead of the Season Opener, we also were able to grab some awesome footage of Todd in the super tough Rotomotion Turbo Rotary RX7 as the boys threw down a few laps!

Yes the timing boards are not 100% working 🙂 , the team at the Motorplex have been working hard and we should see them back in action in time for the upcoming race season!
