Allow me to throw a friendly :rolleyes: back at ya because the [i]model name[/i] of the Giacottolo car was indeed 'Group B'

This assertion is also questionable, in that how could the late Mr Wilkes have been trying to set the Eastern Creek lap record ... while on the drag strip? ;)

They enterd the drag strip with a run off going in the oposite direction to what we are used to in an attempt to break the speed record on the track (not lap my bad and most certianly not drag either :p ) he was probably dismayed to find the brakes where not up to the task but he hasnt been much for a comment since then incident:(
As an aside its a real pity Wilkes' excellent 'twinturbov8' site was allowed to lapse, there was so much great stuff in there :(

Apprently his missus was going to try and win the v6 catigory in a twin turbo v6 VS ute (the previous judge) but ive heard nothing in that in a long time one can safely assume the project is long dead. and HP heros is loosing its lustre even eddy tassone and most other arent intrested in them anymore.
