How trashed was the car afterwards? Like major panel/chassis damage or just minor cosmetic stuff?

Yeah a bit of panel damage to every corner of the car except the drivers side front from memory, he cam out doing a really good burnout then he bumped the back of his car on one of the walls, after that he must oh just thought "f#ck it!" he rev'd guts out of it produced tonnes of smoke and just threw the car around like a rag doll and in the process hit the wall a few more times

Damn it must be nice to be so cashed up that you can rip out moves like that.

Was it nice to start with or was it a bit of a beater anyway?

It wasn't a gary myers sexy beast, but it was pretty nice, all black with the most f#ck off looking engine hanging out the bonnet, it was really really tuff (still is) and thats saying something from a devoted ford fanatic

First shot = Fridays burnout qualifying, bounced the car in sideways *hard* in the main pad after that shot....
Second shot was from the Sunday finals, he bounced it against the wall a few times in the finals too....

Those Holdens you could throw on a new front clip overnight very easily if you happened to have one handy - for example if you were expecting to hit the armco a few times!
