just got a few questions.

1. was he lissening to the gunners on his first run?

2. what does he keep doing with his hand on the roof?

3.when he takes off on his 2nd run it looks like his wheel bar moves down, what causing this. i see it all the time at the drags

4- his spedo and tacho dont work?

[RaceUseOnly]

1: yes

2: purging the nitrous

3: that's the suspension working

4: If you watch it in HD u will see the tacho working on the cruise and as for the speedo........I don't no.

That begs the more puzzling question though and that is if the car is not street legal what is it doing being driven on the street?????And if hayes was in an accident where would he stand legally??

Look, I take my hat off to hayes, I was involved with a lot of quick street cars in Adelaide in the early nineties until our strip was shut down but events like this are, and always have since their inception, been dominated by cars from the eastern states because cars like this can't be built in sa.

Just quietly..... between you and me........most modified cars are not "Street Legal"

[Mcbleh]

If only you people knew how much he cruises this thing on the street. It might not be 100% legal, but neither are jap crap's with chopped springs and cannon mufflers, commodores with jet black tint, modern peformance cars with punched cats, etc etc. It's a street&strip car, and the quickest one in the country. I daresay the most streetable 7second car you'll ever see here.

a well deserved win i must say.

there are those that sit back and critacize.......

and there are those out there giving it a go.

AWESOME VID!!!

[MmeDesgranges]
