Yep, that was me this morning.
I cant help myself drive it to work.
Yeah, its pretty good at shaking the Windows, it's got a reverb on the exhaust note.
Here is a picture of the engine bay.

Yeah, It was part of the deal i had to fly this guy up from down south. Cost me a few grand but ended with some good power.
On 25PSI i got 570HP at the rear wheels.

I'm just a bit scared of Ed taking this thing on the track
...he almost ran me over...
...in a white ute doing 20 kph...
...coming out of the Mitchell Centre car park...
...on the wrong side of the lane...
What's going to happen on a track with 570 horses running wild? :O

He almost ran you over... he missed? maybe he was aiming for you?
What's going to happen on a track?
Heaps of rubber burning & fast times down the strip would be right.
Plus it's much safer at the track surrounded by concert walls. What scares me is him driving on the roads no concert walls to hold the wild beast back. :drool:

Heh, He may have been aiming for me, but when he saw my wonderful wife in the passenger seat, he swerved out of the way.
She's scary....

Hi Adam,
How Funny,
The reason i was in the other lane of the car park, is the ute is too low and i have to go out on a angle. He He.

Nice work:yep:..........have you thought about taking it down to the Summernats in ACT, I have been going since I can remember and your work would be appreciated, plus it’s an awesome weekend as your around other people with a passion for car’s, one other added bonus GIRLS, lots of GIRLS!!!!:hithere:. http://www.summernats.com.au/

*laughs* No worries Mr Rx2re, I figured if you were actually aiming for me, you'd be coming a lot faster, in a far cheaper car ;)
And I believe Sar99 has some great advice above. That beastly machine of yours would be a grand hit at Summernats. woot
And if I knew more girls were into cars, I might have bought something other than a 2000 Ford Festiva *laughs*
