Re: Aussie Blazer

Even though we are metric, all our drag racing tracks are still measured in 1/4 mile! Which is roughly 400m.
But arent alot of your tracks now measuring 1000feet? I watch the drag racing from the US on our one of our cable channels and noticed all your major competition tracks have all been shortened since Kaletta's death? Do all your local tracks still do the 1/4 or have they been shortened as well? I think the shorter tracks suck.

Re: Aussie Blazer

AKoldstyle, I like your style, a 598! I have a 540 in my Vette! Is it a standard deck? This wasnt my Blazer! I have met the guy a few times in the past few years, I just was quizing him on things I could do to my 72 Suburban , I have no idea what times he's done in the 1/4? He says he has another Blazer with 1500hp!!! I am thinking about putting a small blower on my 454 Suburban just to blow off some ricers!
