The large young men of New Zealand racing dive on Hood Aerodrome this end of the week when Masterton Motorplex has the Focal Nationals, the last territorial focuses round of the public rivalry vehicle series.
What’s more, the quickest of all, Aucklander Imprint Holland’s Blue Thunder, left, will be the vehicle to watch. The 1970 RT Charger has a 511 cubic inch Chrysler composite reseller’s exchange hustling motor which siphons out 3000hp. It is right now New Zealand’s quickest vehicle and NZ Champion and was the first “Entryway Prison” to run 200mph and first to cover 1/4 mile in NZ in 6 seconds.

Occasions coordinator Bounce Wilton anticipates around 160 vehicles, with a few other entryway prisons and liquor vehicles equipped for running in the low 7s, not a long way behind Holland. Among them are Dave Green in a Corvette, Chris Tynan in a ’55 Chev, Tom Richardson (’57 Chev), and last year’s champ, Craig Brown in a ’55 Chev.

This week club individuals were working diligently laying new cement at the southern finish of the runway. This will oblige scales for gauging the vehicles both in scrutineering and in case of a public record. As of not long ago NZ record times couldn’t be perceived as a result of the absence of gauging gear.
Wilton said another arrangement of lights imported from the US will be used interestingly.
Saturday’s dashing is for training and qualifying, with the finals to be hung on Sunday.
