While standing on the cruise route trying to see some boobs being flashed, i heard this HK Monaro revving its arse out getting ready for a huge burnout.

So with camera ready i was suprised to see it erupt in flames and i snapped off a few shots.

Hopefully these might appear in Street Machine magazine as i gave them to the sub editor who missed getting them on film.

Could have been worse - Could have been a Ford!

No Not even the Microsoft form of excel impresses me. Bloody TV dinner foil crap cars. 3000 spot welds in lose formation (which is about 2300 less that a similar sized model.

For that thing to not implode with that sort of horse power would mean a box of rivets and a litre or two of apoxy.

Bronze.
