Pete Antunacs new 40 is certainly doing the shit. He also used to be the one who supplied the TT ramp, so he gets a fair bit of practice on it

. Still a really impressive sight though.
The mog was cool. If it is still on original chassis etc, it is doubly impressive, as that is a whole lot of rig to throwing around like that.

No water in the tires, it has rams to extend the suspension, he still had 8" left in the rams on the front, but the tire was hitting the brace on the ramp

Yep he hundied all stages, was miles ahead of the field, last years winner, Phil Noble in a GU was going well, but dry sump failure resulted in seized engine
