Browsing: Drag Racing

The wildest of wild when it comes to door cars, we have a massive field of them locally across both Top Doorslammer and Supercharged Outlaws – good enough that even a few Eastern Staters made the trip inaugral trip over to come and join in on the action!

It wouldn’t be a Blown Car video without a whole lot of edge of your seat action, which we think is just a given with these cars… A fair amount of carnage too with Zap going through several blowers and a motor while throwing everything at the new combo and running some ridiculous times down our quarter mile track!

The numbers in the stands were solid, and so was the entertainment put on for them!

Unfortunately we couldn’t make it down for the Friday night (albeit we didn’t miss much according to reports), we did get down there for the Saturday and weren’t disappointed by any means.

Make sure you check out the Blown Car videos on the channel from the other rounds last season and buckle up for what’s in store for this coming season, can never get enough blown action and they’re all as crazy as the next to watch!

Bit of a mixed bag this round so a few movers and shakers from different classes jumping across (mostly into Top Sportsman) to get a few more laps in and mostly from Outlaw Radial which has less planned rounds this season so a couple of the usual suspects snuck in to get their racing fix!

With a good bunch of racers making the trip west and bringing some pretty awesome cars for good measure, it was a solid round of racing. With the Fuellers also on premises the crowds who came down to watch was what we really like to see!

Unfortunately we couldn’t make it down for the Friday night which meant we unfortunately missed one of our favourite cars doing one of our not so favourite things…. the Mechanically Injected Harris Engine’d Destroked Barra BA Falcon driven by Errol had a big moment on Friday night in the top end and ended up on it’s roof! Not what we wanted to hear as we were looking forward to grabbing more footage of it on the Saturday when we did get down there – but from all reports Errol is ok, and hopefully the damage is repairable and we see it back sometime soon!

Saturday however didn’t disappoint, all the action as we would normally expect with a huge variety of different cars and combos, big blocks, small blocks, rotaries, nitrous, turbo’s and superchargers – pretty much the whole kitchen sink in this one!

Massive weekend of racing and with a big crowd gathered (given the Fuellers were on the premises) everything was on track for a huge event!

Unfortunately we couldn’t make it down for the Friday night (albeit we didn’t miss much according to reports), we did get down there for the Saturday and weren’t disappointed by any means.

The usual fast paced action from these long wheeled monsters with a pretty angry Front Engined Dragster thrown in for good measure!

Massive weekend of racing and with plenty of interstate racers heading over (plus the Top Fuel Kings!) it was set to be a huge weekend!

Unfortunately we couldn’t make it down for the Friday night (albeit we didn’t miss much according to reports), we did get down there for the Saturday and weren’t disappointed by any means.

All the crazy action from these no joke street based cars, some huge moments and plenty of non stop action!

The SVT which made the cover photo on the last Super Street/Sedan video has snagged it again and in absolutely spectacular fashion (and he took the win that race to top it off!).

Lots of great action in this one, we hope you enjoy it!

Contemplated whether to make something from nothing (literally) as these 3 proven powerhouses really had a tough day trying to get a clean pass down a pretty challenging track. A fair amount of rain leading up to the track hire didn’t do any wonders for the track surface, with Mr Holley Efi pulling out all of the stops to try and get the tunes in these cars tamed down enough to be able to at least get a half decent pass in – never an easy feat but nevertheless we have seen what these cars are capable of on a fair surface and commend them for persisting on this day to at least give it a red hot go!

Tricky video to make interesting, there were a couple of reasonable passes from the Torana but hopefully we still produced something worth watching anyway!

The progress being made in this car is pretty remarkable, for a driver who has never raced before it might look like not alot is going on but the incrementals are on par with some of the cars and drivers that have been doing this for a good amount of time now.

The testing is just as important for the all Female pit crew as it is for Lisa as a driver, and everyone is learning and developing at a pretty rapid rate, come time to put the car up against the rest of the field it’s going to have all paid off that’s for sure!

With all the continued support and motivation from Husband Daniel and the rest of the Scratch and Match team, the confidence is definitely starting to build and we are very much looking forward to that day (which we don’t think will be too far in the distant future) where both of the Gregorini Camaro Door Slammers will be lined up side by side at a Championship Round!

This fairly unassuming Series 3 RX7 would have to be the definition of a wolf in sheeps clothing, I mean yeah it has a reasonable rear tyre on the back but there isn’t a ginormous turbo poking out the bonnet, nor is the car encased in a super streamline pro mod carbon fibre shell – just a regular old RX7 with some wheelie bars bolted to the back.

Pickle isn’t shy to a track day or getting some decent testing in, be it in his car or someone else that has willingly let him jump behind the wheel to shake it down… he’s been around Rotaries for a pretty long time now and being part owner of Rotomotion he has a pretty solid foundation and history to lean on when it comes to making these little engines really get up and go!

Some cracking passes on the track day, another of the cars that was just keeping in front of the track and managing to get that power down. With some very respectable times banked for the day, and although this was back in August – he’s recently broken into the 6’s and surpassed the 200mph mark in this same car (albeit a nice fresh livery update down the side of the car!).

What an absolute weapon of a car and driver, can’t wait to see what the car can do next!

Another stout rotary that puts W.A on the map when it comes to crazy fast rotor action.

If there’s one car that grabs your attention it has to be this tough as nails XY, it has the looks, the smells and the sounds that tick all the right boxes!

This true street car in full trim blows our mind everytime we see it now, with minimal changes since the last outing and just a touch up from master tuner Shannon (Tunecorp) right off the bat Ned and the Supra were literally right where they left off almost 6 months prior…. And it’s that close to snagging that elusive 9 second slip that it’s almost unfair at this point!

The time it ran straight out of the gate is yet another PB for this little rocket, we nearly had one last pass at the end of the track hire but we ran out of time (literally had the car on the start line ready to go too, but the timing system had already been shut down and wasn’t going to be restarted before the track hire session had finished!!).

Build specs below:

2020 Toyota GR Supra
Engine – Stock B58 3.0-Litre Inline-Six
Head – Stock
Rotating Assembly – Stock
Turbo – Stock with Upgraded Air Intake
Intercooler – Upgraded Heat Exchanger, Ice Tank and Pump, Upgraded Intercooler Piping
Fuel Type – E85
Fuel System – Stock with added Port Injectors, 30hp Shot of Nitrous
Gearbox – Stock ZF 8HP (8-speed Auto)
Driveline – Stock with Upgraded Driveshafts and Control Arms
Wheels and Tires – Belak 17″ Beadlocks with 275 M/T’s, Belak 17″ Front Runners
