The utes they have over there are awesome! Rear wheel drive beasts with absoulutely no weight over the rear axle ha ha saw a few guys drifting across intersections in them. Funny after a night of rain you usually see a few parked up lamposts too :)

when i was living down under a popular hobby seemed to be light up the rear tyres while keeping the speed down with the foot brake and snaking up the road but the people i was working for had their "toy" an early falcon gt with a serious drag motor road legal but virtually undriveable (it woud spin for an 1/8 of a mile, the length of the local mildura track) the last news i heard of them one of the brothers had moved up to top fuel and trashed it at 300mph (if you want to see it look up lammatina on you tube)

Would love to but i think its just a little bit to far for me to come and have a look as it would cost a fortune in fuel for the return journey as i would be driving it home not shipping it :twisted:

Only in bedford 20mile from you it would cost 10 pound in gas or could deliver on trailer as needs few jobs doing realy before it goes back on road. if it comes down to it i will prob just have to break it for parts coz i realy need the space now but it would be a real shame.
