Below is the entrant list as of today at Eastern Creek for the show down.

Today was the 1/4 mile at WSID with dyno runs at Eastern Creek. The biggest crowd pleaser was the Merc CLK Black from City performance, it sounded like a Funny car ripping down the drag strip. It was Black, Fat and very Euro porn. My other two favourite's were the Simply sports cars Lotus with an after market supercharger and other goodies and the imported VW Sirocco R from Scuderia, both looked the business and would scare anyone in traffic.
That being said there were 32 cars on show that i'd snap up a steer in, within a blink.

Will post what what i can later in the week. Can't give away to much at the moment.

Cheers,
Rob.

RAMSPEED

We entered the Brabus B63 S based on the C63 AMG. Our second car was the ABT Sportsline Power ‘R’, a supercharged VW Golf R32, however due to delays in supply of parts from overseas, we could not finish the car on time for this event. RamSpeed represents leading German tuning companies and offer TUV approved performance upgrades for European cars. The C63 AMG and the VW Golf R32 are great cars to upgrade and our products definitely address the
hidden potential in these vehicles.

The products installed are manufactured by world leading German tuning companies and therefore little or no testing was required here in Australia. RamSpeed offers top quality, proven German performance products which are vigorously tested in Germany under various conditions (race track, road, German Autobahn, dyno, etc). We felt very confident that a multimillion Euro company with 20 year history and proven racing pedigree can supply the best applications for RamSpeed.
