The usual question of who's going this friday night to Calder's Street Drags with the greatest return road man has ever built.
I am going out with my XR8 ute to test the 1st ever Textralia BOSS clutch. I've been waiting since November for this which means it will rain on friday...LOL :eclipsee_ :eclipsee_ |

fullthrottle it all depends on the night. Some nights can be packed others can be slow, it's all luck of the draw
