Summernationals was held at WSID over the weekend past, with a huge competitors list, ranging from Super Street, Junior Dragsters, Modified Bike, Competition Bike, Modified, Super Sedan, Super Gas, Competition, Super Stock and Super Charged Outlaws.

I have to say I really do enjoy seeing classes like the super stock running 9 and 10 sec passes, with so much attitude and wheel standing at the 30 foot mark. It is so much easier to relate with those classes. Don’t get me wrong, cars running below 7 sec’s are definitely NOT boring they just seem to do it seemingly easy, I’m sure it does not feel easy inside the car though. Nothing like watching a car get all tail happy mid track or even lifting the front wheels 2 or 3 feet off the deck.

Having spoken to a few Americans about the types of events they have over there, Powercruise will absolutely smash everything they currently have. It will also be nice to see a few Aussie burnout machines get taken over there to show these guys what a real burnout is. Look for any videos of American burnouts and you’ll be staring at static hole diggers!

Tassie experienced their very first Powercruise over the weekend past. Everyone was pumped that an event like this was coming to Tasmania. The weather was perfect for the entire event. There was plenty of film crews on hand taking photos and shoots for magazines.

Gup brought down his famous Elvis HQ, Mentle in his Tuff camaro. Steve Loader in his tuff as HG Holden. We also had Victor and Ben Bray with their burnout cars to put on a display for the Tassie people. Also 50Man showed his skills in his Commodore drift car. What a display he put on with 360 donuts at high speeds.

 The Bay Area Hot Club Sydney held its 12th Annual Tug in the Park Hot Rod Show at
Stanwell Park NSW on Sunday the 3rd.

Sunday morning waking up at 7am for the long trek down to Wollongong or more precisely Stanwell park. The weather was very over cast and we were in two minds about whether to travel to the show thinking there wouldn’t be much interest in weather like this.
