WA Outlaw Radial Cars at Round 9 of the 2020 WA Drag Racing Championship Series, the Season Finale and wow did it deliver!!!

What an unbelieveable wrap up to a pretty spectacular season, I lost count of the amount of PB’s set tonight by the boys – both ET and MPH. Some absolutely crazy side by side passes and a special mention to Ben Pisconeri who reset the world ET Record for an Intech SOHC with a blistering 7.50.

Can’t thank everyone enough for the success of this season and for support Drag Racing in Western Australia. We are so excited for what next season will bring and we can’t wait to share it all with you again.

It really doesn’t get more “street” than Mat’s unassuming white VS Ute which he drives to and from the track with all of the gear loaded into the tray!

Mat from Pro Flow Injector Servicing has been campaigning this ute for a little while now and you may have seen it on our videos before, but it was about time we actually got up close and personal with this 8 second 850+ HP daily….

With Steve (Lundy Race Fab) and Jeff (Streetbuilt Racing) onboard to oversee proceedings, this ute really is looked after by the best.

Mat rolled up each round and was working away at those ET’s until the final pass where he rolled off an 8.760@159mph!!

At the end of the night the wheels were put back to street trim, the tray packed back up and the car driven home – What an absolute legend!

A huge thanks to Mat for letting us cover the car even though he felt he would be camera shy! Mate you’re a natural haha…

We’ve been meaning to start to venture out a little more and capture some of the other classes on race days, upon a conversation with FullBOOST’s Paul Broomy (who also runs the Broomy’s Garage Channel) he made a cracking suggestion to hook up with Matt Esplan and get his FD RX7 on camera. Well that’s exactly what we set out to do and we are kicking ourselves for not doing this sooner, better late than never though right!?

What an unreal car up close, the attention to detail inside and out is incredible – with the majority of the work carried out by Matt himself. The car has all the right bits in all the right places and the factory Mazda CX-7 Black Cherry Mica paint looks superb in the sun.

The RX7 was on a mission laying down PB’s right up until it lunched second gear in fairly unassuming fashion, but the damage resulted in the weekend’s racing coming to a close.

We are super keen to jump back onboard with Matt and the crew once the RX7 is ready to roll and grab some more footage, we definitely want to be there when he breaks into that 7 second zone for the first time!

Massive thanks to Matt, the crew and his family for letting us cover the car and to Broomy for hand picking this one – if he’s lucky he might score a regular gig on the channel selecting feature cars… (Only if he starts to comment on the videos though) 😀

On the 13th of December 2020, we were privelaged to be invited down to be involved with two major milestone events at the same place, same time… The Shannons Insurance Gone But not Forgotten Car Show which paid homage to all things Holden & General Motors Australia, and a the Torque N Power 100th Podcast Radio Episode!

Even with the weather not playing the game, the turnout was incredible. The calibre of the cars that presented for the show and the owners with their stories were truly remarkable – to say the show was a success would be an understatement.

We even had one of our cars there on show and we couldn’t have been prouder to be there in attendance let alone be a part of the team that was behind capturing this historically significant event.

Thankyou to Shannons Insurance, Torque N Power and to everyone who attended and brought their cars and special stories and memorabilia.

We really hope you enjoy this one, we learned alot for how we want to film these kinds of events moving forward and we can’t wait for the next one!

Organised by the WADRA Team, who’s mission to enhance the sport of Drag Racing for all competitors and supporters by promoting goodwill and open communications between all competitors, supporters and race officials shone true on Saturday with this very special display consisting of some of the support cars and crews in the WA Drag Racing Community.

The intention behind this special cruise which is core of WADRA is to continue to promote the sport of Drag Racing in Western Australia and encourage and foster the spirit of unity and sportsmanship among it’s members, volunteers, supporters and race officials.

Most importantly, the cruise was to have some fun and create a memory of the pit paddock side of racing life!

The cruise invited all competitors, crews, track staff, volunteers and ANDRA personnel to participate in a cruise of small vehicles, bikes, buggies, carts or other creations before the racing commenced on Saturday 10th April 2021.

What a great way to start the Final Round for the Season!

We really hope you enjoy this one, we had alot of fun filming this and we really are spoilt with such an awesome group in our Drag Racing Community.

Bring on the 21/22 Season!
