On the way home from the American Muscle Car Show at Flemington today me and the missus were about 30klm from home, when headed in our direction was a group of XY/XW Falcons that had been to a hot rod show back home. The middle falcon had some smoke coming from underneath looked like small oil leak, well 100m after it passed us the smoke got worse and then the falcon did what looked to be 2-3 360's and was engulfed in tyre smoke from the spin out. The car looked to pull up in the middle of the road, thankfully roads quiet at this point, by this time we were 500m up the road and there were several cars headed in the direction of the spin out so we kept on going, to many cars parked all over road could cause more dramas. I wonder if anyone in the forum knows anyone it happened to or has heard?

The more I think about it the more I think 5-10sec earlier and we would have been side by side.

Some great cars driving to the show, seeing the entrance is 2 min from my place I think I had the best seat in the house.

My guess would be that his oil filter has either split or started coming loose from his engine......that'll do it every time.
