I'll chuck this in here since most of the frequent viewers of this thread are well aware of the mighty VB!

Went to powercruise with my brother this weekend in Taupo, had a blast!

Since last year we blew up his gearbox the day before powercruise 2010 we bought a spare along. After around 30 minutes or so driving on the track we killed the gearbox, took it back to where the ute was parked with spare box and performed a super quick gearbox change, we were lucky enough that a guy who was a pit member for one of the rotaries came over and offered us a a hand, after a few hours the car was jacked back down on the ground and driven straight into the off-street racing lineup, lost the race due to spinning up the whole track (that's what happens when no Tyre warm-ups are aloud)

Then car was taken straight into skid pad, killed the 3rd-4th selector fork straight away! he tried to hook 5th but it didn't work going from 2nd (obviously) so it resulted in a below par burnout, afterwards car was put back on trailer and we spectated the rest of the event, it gets better every year! (btw that's 5 gearboxes this v6 has killed now)

Drags are on in a few days and I think delco is over right now merging 2 dead boxes into 1 working one for sunday!

 

[delcowizzid]

that must be the most solid v6 in all of NZ so much limiter and the conrods stayed inside LOL. box is out and fully stripped dead shift fork as expected.parts box is stripped should be all back together tomorrow night with new synchros and shift forks ready for the drags on sunday and the next burnout comp in a couple of weeks and what a comp it will be i just sold him my GTS so he can fit my engine and his turbo 350 trans ready for drag season so it doesnt matter if he pops it doing skids time to see just how fast this little green beast can go down the 1/4

Powerskids!

That burnout is prime. The sound of that v6 screaming is nuts.
