on my way to the pub tonight, there was a Holden V8 ute (the 5.7) next to me at a set of lights, i floored it and he must have been on half throttle, then he just opened it up and the fuckin noise was immense  must have had some crazy aftermarket extractors on it.
I want one, very very much!

you should have a ride in one have been in one HSV Clubsport R8, one of the 297kW versions, sitting at 60kmh, floor it in 3rd and the brute force of the thing destroys the stuff that lines your skull

theres one of those holden v8 pickups in my village, bright yellow with the reg V8 Cum - thing drinks fuel though as i usually see it up my the local BP, but it sounds sweet as a nut when he chucks it down the local bypass!
Still though, the dude with the Viper Ram around here still gets my vote - sounds mental and goes like one when he punts it down the bypass
