From memory it packs around 293rwkw with a built engine (Alloy heads??) and was tuned by Autotech. It was a manual - but I cant recall if he stayed with the 5 speed or went to something better. It was quite low and had nice mags - but I have not seen it in the flesh since March 2007. (I remember because I copped a speeding fine the same day I drove alongside it on a cruise with a car club)
I saw it for sale a while ago, so dont know if Notty ended up keeping the car or sold it on. From memory the car had had an impressive amount of money thrown at it.

Yeah its a great feeling going around bathurst. But you keep thinking that someone might be around the next corner coming the other way.So used to going around there when its just a public road. And you have to keep telling your self its ok to use both lanes....lol......

SF61 on sale 11/11...

We work months ahead plus depending on models, colours etc will have an effect when certain cars are run.

We can shoot a car tomorrow but the earliest (typically) it would run is 3-4 months later.
