This car is fairly well known on the show scene in australia... anyways, here's how our cars do burnouts at car shows... It's awesome.

you don't like the way the car is being treated datsbad?

At summernats, easternats, powercruise, our guys really get out there and use and abuse their cars, this is what draws the big crowds, and what people in australia want to see.

I just dont get the point . seems a old tired 350 with open headers in a junker would have got the job done also. But hey whatever makes them happy. Thanks for the video

You know, beating the crap out of a strong car, however done, is just cool to me. I giggled my butt off watching that! Thank you!!!

By the way, why's the guy sitting on the wrong side of the car? Oh, wait, same reason that the toilet flush swirls in th eopposite direction, gravity, right?

Still chuckling, thanks!

you can register LHD now, still need to go through what they call L02 compliancing though. This is for seatbelts, and lighting. (car must have inertia type lap/sash belts fitted to front seats. Vehicle must have park lights fitted to front, and indicators changed to orange lens on back. They are also pushing for lap/sash belts in the back now too, i'm fighting them on this one though.)

The laws were only changed here a few years ago to allow the use of LHD, without having to have a huge CAUTION - LEFT HAND DRIVE sticker fitted across the rear screen.

My camaro is already RHD, but has never been registered here, so will be interesting when i go for rego....

You from oz customcam?

I know there is at least one person in the States that really likes that type of burnout.


ME!

It's more exciting than just watching a car sit still and smoke. :thumbsup:

Awesome stuff!!
