This is a Holden VZ Ute…basically its the front half/ platform of a GTO, with a pickup bed. It also happens to have a TT 383 running 40 psi.

Maybe its just me, but roll racing supras on the way home from home depot with a bed full of stuff would be pretty :pimp:

it actually doesnt look that bad for being a GTO with a bed. Kind of useless tho. No matter what you do 1895hp aint hooking up on the street from a stop or a roll.

Update: This combo was good for an 8.1 @ 17x MPH. I guess they spun the tires, big surprise.

Yeah, if that car was set up properly, it could have run a bit faster I’m sure.

if its going to run an 8 something on a track, then a high 9/low 10 second street car is whats its going to be. what do you think its gonna run on the street, 15’s?
