I saw on the morning news today that 69 vehicles set the Guinness world record for a mass burnout in Canberra. I wonder if any of our Y Block friends from down under were involved?

Mark, i dont think so! the summernats is more for later cars and and real hot streetcars, a lot of the burnout cars have mega oversized blown engines just for the event, all the vehicles are scrutineered to compete and just go beserk. There are all types and most  go and just cruise, show n shine, and talk cars.

Thanks Bill. On the TV clip I couldn't tell what kind of cars they were - all I could see was smoke!

There was actually a clip on the evening news here in New Hampshire. The focused on the fires after the burnout. Pretty neat and very suprizing to see here. It looks like the cars had to be tuned down to just do a burnout. Lot of serious Iron there. Chuck
