This was out at Willowbank more than a decade ago. I seem to remember he was running 1.5 second 60' times on not a massive tyre. Pretty cool launch for a street car!

Ha ha ha ha yep Gav that is a good time....... for a 350m 'quarter mile'....

Craig,
Wazza Pete and I were running in the 11.5's all night, I couldn't get under it, did a bunch of 11.51's. I had them all covered till Sneaky Pete did an 11.49 or something like that to spoil my day.

Thanks Waz, knowing you are on the good guys side is sooooo reassuring

Anyway, why am I defending myself?

I know this Post has gone way off topic lol. But I got in touch with Peter from Oz wheels and he said he still has all the moulds and castings and he still makes them on a small scale now. He said he still makes the wheel centres and the rims get made somewhere in Melbourne now. he does repairs as well. so good new for anyone with Oz wheels
