Yeah we went, was a really good day actually.
Did you see that VTS blow its oil seals all over the strip 
Also noted was that not 1 of the CTR's I saw going up the strip got under 15 seconds 1/4 mile, even better 
All the 2.0 16v Novas were getting high 14's

There was a Silver Nova GSi 2.0 16v with full interior and Speedlines which ran a 14.97 which I thought was very impressive.
Also a couple of Nova Turbos running mid 14's.
Traction being a big problem for all the FWD cars at the Pod.

I fear you won't
A brand new CTR went up, looked mildly tuned; had a full exhaust system and a Jap driver and that only managed a 15.02

Take out, spare wheel/jack etc.. and back seats and a standard CTR should do a 1/4 in about 14.9

Yes, it looked ok as far as CTR's go.
White looks special, I have only ever seen one.
There was a new shape white Intergra Type-R at the pod.
I must say I do like that.

Ahh, there was also a Vauxhall V8 Monaro at the Pod
Had Vauxhall badges on it and was brought there by Vauxhall to see what it would run.
Ran a low 15.
