COOLING SYSTEM GOES BANG!!!

Another bad to the bone car you’ve probably seen on the channel before, the 1970 Hemi powered Blown Chevelle Doorslammer is one of the best looking Slammers we have in W.A (In our opinion)!

With a pretty successful race season behind him, Frank brought the Slammer down to get a bit of off season track time while the opportunity presented itself.

If you love the blown car championship round videos you will definitely love this one just as much! This one is all Frank!

STREET’S CLOSED PIZZA BOY, FIND ANOTHER WAY HOME!!

Hopefully the video gives you a pretty good idea of the level of this car, the paint is absolutely phenomenal and has a subtle pearl accent. Not only does the car deserve every bit of it’s place in Street Machine Mag, there’s nothing tougher than the sound of a Solid Roller Big Block Chrysler rumbling away.

The car definitely isn’t all show, even though it would have no issue competing in any elite pavillion bay at any level of car show… This is a true street car!

Not only that, but Aaron took the VG all the way to the Eastern States to compete in Drag Challenge taking out runner-up in the Tuff Mounts 235 Aspirated class and also claiming the quickest Mopar-powered car.

Check out the awesome write up on that one below:

With the car back in our home town, the opportunity to get some more track time presented itself.

It’s never as easy as it seems getting a high powered radial car down the track, it was definitely a challenging day for Aaron and through no lack of trying on this occasion either. Getting the car ready for Drag Challenge in October this year it was a good opportunity to dial a few things in and work out what changes or upgrades were needed to step it up come October.

With Aaron making adjustments during the day and testing each the car wasn’t going to let him have it easy this time around, he’s already got his shopping list together and the suspension is likely to get a few tweaks in the lead up to October.

We hope you enjoy the sights and sounds of this one, it’s a seriously cool ride!

Gazzanats Darwin is set to be one huge party at Hidden Valley Raceway on August 19 & 20. With a huge line-up of insane Burnout Cars from around the country set to descend on Darwin it will be 2 huge days of tyre frying action.

The Gregorini’s are no stranger to Drag Racing, nor our channel… With Daniel’s Camaro appearing on our channel in just about every blown car video in the last season!

We didn’t want to leave the most important Gregorini out! Scratch and Match Motorsport have been working hard in the background to get Lisa’s new Door Slammer all prepped up and ready to compete, this includes training a complete new all Female pit crew (which is absolutely awesome in itself) and also getting Lisa comfortable and licensed in the car.

With all the support and motivation from Husband Daniel and the Scratch and Match team, Lisa is getting more and more confident in the car – something she has never driven before in her life let alone anything remotely close… So this is all a brand new experience and learning for Lisa.

Lisa’s car runs an onboard mounted starter motor which had a small issue before the first pass but aside from that the 60ft test hits are progressing nicely and the team are being dilligent in not rushing Lisa or the car until they are happy with each incremental acheivement.

It has been awesome to watch the development of the team and watching Lisa start her licensing passes, I’m sure it will be next to no time before we see both of the Gregorini Camaro Door Slammers lined up side by side at a Championship Round! Now that will be a video to hang out for!!

BLOWN AUSTIN A50 “MOJO” GETS A SOLID THRASHING AT BRASHERNATS

Love the old Falcons on our channel and this one is no exception, even though Mick keeps it old school and was a little hard to get in touch with to get some of the nitty gritty details of the build – we’ve found out on the grapevine the chassis setup was carried out by Brodie from Advanced and the business end the Nitrous Small Block was taken care of by Derek Paulik.
