History
Purchased new in 2004. After 6mths put a 2.3ltr Whipple on top......very very long story short, wanted more power! Ended up with the Blown 410 and went to Summernats in 2008. Made the Top 20 in Street Class on her Engineering alone but didn't win a trophy! Said to the wife "Next time we come, we are winning a trophy"! Has been over 3yrs in the current build and will be debuted at Motor Ex, Sydney in July 2012.
