After getting their first taste of quarter-mile action at Street Machine Drag Challenge Weekend 2019, Matt McIntosh and Jayden Page built a killer turbo VY HSV ClubSport to have a crack in the Haltech Radial Blown class at the five-day Drag Challenge event last November. Unfortunately, the new combo torched a big-end bearing on Day Four, but they’ve rebuilt the car ready for Drag Challenge Weekend 2020 in Sydney, 3-5 April.
The 427ci LSX now runs a Callies DragonSlayer crank, 10.25:1-compression Wiseco pistons, H-beam rods, and a Li’l John’s Motorsport Solutions cam with more duration. The LSX Performance six-bolt heads have also been ported and had new exhaust valves and upgraded springs fitted.
