Quickest rotary down under

[DMRH]

G'day from DMRH

On Wed night at the Eastern creek street meet in Sydneys west, the PACMAN RX-3 with its 20B twin turbo power set a new Aussie record of ......7.6@175mph.

This is an amazing feat when you consider the older technology put into the cars 1/2 chassis & that its still officially street registered.

The run was done on turbo only. No NOS or other wacky fuels involved.:D
