Past most of the skyline crew last night. Wasn't in the 33 though, was in my old car (Subaru Liberty RS) with my mate driving.

Anyone know who own's the maroon 33 gts-t that was doing burnouts all night.. Sounded wicked powerful, just don't understand why the need for burnouts.....

Were you in that white Liberty?

Yeah we saw the 33 pulling burnouts.

I had a great time, the highlights were the Countach and the F360 giving it some up the street, I think it made Frink wee a little bit.

For those of you that weren't there early enough, a couple of idiots drove past out their car window yelling "Hey nice car bro, do they make them for men?" - they were driving one of these:

Yep, White Liberty sedan with "RS" number plates. One of the very more tastefully modded ones.

I couldn't believe the amount of wrx's, silver one with gold rims and whitewalls...ewwww, to low as well.

Saw a blue "low intentions" club member ride get defected for sitting at the petrol station dumped on its rear. Cop also pinged him for the side mirrors (which were pretty much razor blades)..

maybe the people with the nicer cars tend to keep away from the whole braddon thing... with cops & defects, and such a big crowd these days, it might not appeal??

I saw some amazing cars today in the Top 60 pavillion... I guess you dont really see those ones cruising braddon though!

i got a few pics from inside the pavilion, think i saw you aswell Shell. Were you in a group with 3 guys?

was really difficult to get pics in there, so crowded and so many people walking through pics you had to take what you could get...

Not from inside the Pavilion but my favourite of the day (too bad it was so dusty)

So badly deafened and sunburnt from the day, first time i've made it there. Tried for the past 5 years but never seem to get there...

[ido09s]

[Baconer]

haha wasnt sure it was even you, was going off the pictures from the braid wood cruise thread.

"Hey are you Shell from a skyline internet forum?"

"No "

"...Fair enough"

no thankyou

[leech_]

true shell i would not expect those cars out but just overall i thought there may be a few more nicer ones out there based on previous years anyways drove by last night on the way home from a mates house and only noticed a white s1 r33 so i just kept going

[MIVEC]

OMG Saleen S281i OMG OMG OMG.

SOOOOO HAAWWWT

There hasnt been nice (and actual summernats entrant) cars out in Braddon since 2005.

A few nice cars got trashed that year in Braddon (one that stands out is a beautiful Walkinshaw getting pelted with bottles) and the police came down extremely hard on entrant cars cruising around that year too. So they dont really go out anymore as its not worth it.

The crowd control is better inside the summernats these days so if you want to see the good cars, go hangout on Tuff Street inside on Friday night.

The only time I went anywhere near braddon during the week at night I saw a bright pink magna slammed on huge chromies with rubber bands for tyres, pissed myself laughing and kept on driving in the opposite direction.

[leech_]

makes sense nic. There was a nice blue R34 GTR out at braddon that i spotted though and a few other muscles cars

Commented in the nats photo thread by Widebody32.

2nd was a 400hp current spec Typhon i believe.

I would more believe a 400kw typhoon. Some injectors and a fuel pump and I'm around 400hp.
