MODEL WITH GRUDGE KINGS, SO THE NEXT THING I’D


I THINK WE HAVE A PRETTY GOOD EVENT


ABOVE: Stuart Bennett was
on a mission in Pro Elite,
resetting the Aussie LSX
record with a 6.39@220mph
with his twin-turbo tube-
frame Pontiac GXP. With
Castle Hill Performance’s
Dale Heiler driving the
Haltech, the Poncho was
running mid-sixes all day

LEFT: Danko Knezevic had
a big weekend in his twin-
turbo SBF-powered Capri,
running five 7.4sec passes
and finishing runner-up in
Pro Small-Tyre Fighter

BELOW: While Frank Tarabay
and the GAS Racing crew set
a new PB of 6.98@208mph
in testing the day before
Grudge Kings, they struggled
with traction during the event
in the radial-tyre street-
registered JZA80 Supra

1: Danny Makdessi had
his Devil’s Taxi VC Valiant
pulling huge skids all day.

grudge racing and had the
crowd jumping with plenty of
