thats so not the CAPA ute.

The stickers are all wrong, the rims, the bonnett.

And when you see that footage.... well, even Bolger could control a car better then the fool that was driving that knock-off.

Hope that kid is ok.

This is my favourite part of the article:

SummerNats organiser Chic Henry said today he was confident appropriate safety procedures were already in place at SummerNats.

But he said he would be looking into whether extra safety measures were needed in the future.

"What it may mean is that I consider not having this type of vehicle at the event again," he said.

Yeah, like Summernats is going to ban utes from entering. I can see them doing that right after they make it a no alcohol event. :P

Typical booner ute drivers... can't drive their under-powered domestic rice, but still think they rock and then they do something stupid and still think they are rock.... but we all know better... *derrr* :P

    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
