Powercruise NT - VWRX does ok
Well, whilst the nationals happened in the sothern states up here this weekend we had out first Powercruise
http://nt.powercruise.net/index.php
Wilst this is more of a mainstream event I thought I'd post to say my VW did ok. I'll let the pics do the talking but will note that they're for my
purple bug....
Pretty cool hey....
I'm by no means one who gloats about this stuff and am really chuffed to have done so well. :thumb

Well done. It's a buzz to win isn't it. Not that I've ever seen your car in the metal, but it must be of a very high standard to win so many
trophys at a mainstream event.
Congrats!

I think a trophy for "Most F**cking Awesome" should have also been included.
Very well done and very well deserved.
Congrats.

Thanks Dude :thumb
Yeah...I've no doubt that the car will head down south at some stage in the future. I've a number of things I'd want to do first though, things
like sorting the tune, radiator and a few other items. Brissie sounds like the place to be hey
I'd really also need a tow vehicle and trailer. Wouldn't trust any car carriers with the car.....
Here is a pic of me hammering the maing straight...

Very impressive. Powercrusies attract some heavy duty machines. I bet the Monaro and Torana boys did'nt expect to get beat by a VW.

Well deserved; the VWRX is one of the best radical street packages I've seen.
