    Default Powercruise 15 - Here in October '08

    http://www.powercruise.net/dest/index.php?page=wa

    Powercruise is locked in to rock Perth’s Barbagallo Raceway on 11th & 12th October 2008. So WA better get ready to cruise, race, drift and skid your asses off for the two biggest days that WA has ever seen.

    here's some random footage from Powercruise 2007 over east

    LoL @ Torana trying to drift

    Thought it might be an opportunity for some fun with a bunch of the Toyota peoples. We might do a group OST entry (pending more details later in the year)... anyone interested, keep an eye on this thread.
    Reprezent Toyota Powah!!

    cheers

    I don't really understand powercruise, is it similar to MV but on a track with best club competitions and stuff or what?
    Those trucks look awesome at the start I hope they come

    well, I've not been before .. but from what I can grasp, its just a whole weekend of motorsport activities. instead of your cars just sitting static like at most car shows... you've got a big open track for cruising, drift and burnouts in a controlled environment for safety and lack of hassle from the cops.
    They record it all, and then edit and slap it onto a DVD to share with the nation (I've seen these DVD's on sale with most other car related DVD's)

    sounds like fun

    hate to brake it to ya (spot the pun!) but brakes are frowned upon at POWERcruise
    clutch kicks on the other hand i would say are welcomed

    Unlicensed cars are entered at their discretion...
    I think you have to supply some pictures... I think they will understand your car is for race perposes only and you should be alowd to enter...
    They just dont want bunky/dangerous cars mixing with the rest of the decent rides out there
