The Cab, Holden Nationals & GXM Magazine

V8Owner · Forum Owner

The Cab on its maiden trip to the track at the recent Holden Nationals held at Heathcote Park Raceway.

We have been picked up and given a nice mention in the latest GXM magazine.

This is great news for the forum with some exposure & hopefully some new members.

Yes i know You thought we were running a Harrop LS112 blower, You thought right!. There was a typo in the short article & a little confusion. We have been contacted by GXM & they will fix this in the next issue

You may wonder where the cab has been since it's debut run at Heathcote.
The Cab is carefully stored at Liverpool Exhaust whilst they fabricate a new exhaust system.

It's next stop will be to have the 6 point roll cage installed, some new rims fabricated & rubber then its off to finish setting the car up to see what it can do minus the wheel spin.

Don't miss the latest issue of GXM its out now,
