WHAT’S HAPPENING

Vale Sam Fenech

The world lost one of Drag Racing’s gentleman, Sam Fenech on Sat Jan 7th at Willowbank Raceway during a Top Doorslammer race. Sam was wellknown for his racing, whether it was in his Pro-Street LJ Torana (ORSM) or his drive in Maurice and Mary Fabietti’s new Camaro Slammer. He was equally as well-known and highly respected for building many high-horsepower engines through his Westend Performance business. Sam was truly a shining light in the modified car and drag racing scenes, with not a bad word to say about anyone, and always up for a chat with a smile on his face. We send our heartfelt condolences to Sam’s family, workmates, crew and legions of people who were lucky enough to call him a mate. RIP Sam. Taken well before his time at just 55 years old…

Pro Flo Performance Release Prp Products Injector Hat

Sick of seeing the same injector hats over and over again? Paul at Pro Flo Performance has designed and manufactured his own style that not only look the part, but perform as well. Available in mechanical and EFI configurations, you can easily remove the bolt in block offs to change drive ability and help with tuning. The EFI version has it all built into the bottom of the hat so no extra plate is required to keep the height down and keep the mechanical look. Completely designed and made in Australia from billet, everything fits together with an o ring system, with a range of finishes available including polished, raw billet machined or in any colour anodising you choose. For more information, contact Pro Flo Performance on 0415 305983 or jump onto www.profloperformance.com.au

911 Porsche Wins Summernats Grand Champion

The announcement of a Porsche 911 winning Grand Champion at Summernats 35 has ignited a heated discussion on social media, with many people arguing that the car in question should never have been allowed to enter, let alone take home the prestigious Chic Henry Sword. There’s no denying the car has been rebuilt to the highest standard by the team at Real Steel, having taken off many awards at last years MotorEx. And with the judges scoring the Porsche so highly again, it was always going to come down to the owners driving ability. History now shows that he can drive the car well enough to edge out the competition. The way I see it, who cares what engine it has or what badge is wears, if its good enough to win, then so be it! Congrats

Mr Livi Krevatin on taking home the top award! Pic by Chad Silvey.
