This getting better and better.
I'm in and yeah, I call you out! Sounds like fun.
As you know mine doesn't roll at the moment and I doubt very much it will be ready for the 4th.
I will come and watch though, I will be there as leader of your cheer squad!
By the way, I would love to see Brett's beast on the track!!

Yep, I'd love to see Brett's beast run too. Sounds ace in the flesh. Need to hear it at noise 
I'll chat during to week mate to sort out a plan for Friday. If you want to roll up with me we can do that.
I best do some practice during the week to get my driving up to spec

Happy as and this is a keeper. Wanted this car for about 5 years now. Just want to enjoy it and fix a few little things to my liking. New wheels already being made :-) OH, and of course run it down the quarter which the previous owner didn't get a chance to do :-)

What is it that you are plugging in? And do I need one?
I leave the tuning to the guy with the dyno and the lap top.
What damage can I do with that thing?

Street tyres?
How does auto change gears/slippage?
Big mph...mid 11 sec territory
Either way shows she got potential to go fair bit quicker once sorted which is a nice thing.

Low 12's with a RELIABLE stock engine with no more than a cam, stock pistons and small heads for an LS, I would say well done!!
This car just drove to Toranafest and back no stress.
I call it a quick, good fun streeter!
Put it way and all reay for next time, sht hot, well done Daz!!!

It will go high 11's easy. I guarantee your problem is your too slow getting off the line. What 60ft times?

Heathcote is a good track, but it's not as fat as Calder, or Sydney for that matter.
He may find just going to Calder with a better preped track will drop his numbers.
None the less, I think he still went well
