You know, beating the crap out of a strong car, however done, is just cool to me. I giggled my butt off watching that! Thank you!!!

By the way, why's the guy sitting on the wrong side of the car? Oh, wait, same reason that the toilet flush swirls in th eopposite direction, gravity, right?

Still chuckling, thanks!
Mark

you can register LHD now, still need to go through what they call L02 compliancing though. This is for seatbelts, and lighting. (car must have inertia type lap/sash belts fitted to front seats. Vehicle must have park lights fitted to front, and indicators changed to orange lens on back. They are also pushing for lap/sash belts in the back now too, i'm fighting them on this one though.)

The laws were only changed here a few years ago to allow the use of LHD, without having to have a huge CAUTION - LEFT HAND DRIVE sticker fitted across the rear screen.

My camaro is already RHD, but has never been registered here, so will be interesting when i go for rego....

You from oz customcam?

I know there is at least one person in the States that really likes that type of burnout.


ME!

It's more exciting than just watching a car sit still and smoke.

Awesome stuff!!
