August equals Winter down here in New Zealand, this time we got blessed by stunning weather and an even better turnout for Chrome Festival NZ, the biggest winter event for cruising, racing and Show'n'Shine display in the whole Country.
Jump onboard with me on 'KINGXY' for a legendary ride around Hampton Downs Motorsport Park, with an all-new and improved setup on new suspensions, new rear axles with billet splines, new diff, new gearbox and a total output of roughly 1200hp on a 555ci Big Block Ford, 8/71 TBS Supercharger, running on 15psi of pressure and C16 race fuel / E85 Ethanol mix.
Keep in mind this was a cruising session and we were not allowed to go too fast, most of the action you'll see here is half to partially full open throttle. It's scary to think that the full potential of this car is still unattainable even on a racetrack. We believe the real potential of this Ford Falcon could be seen on a Quarter Mile or even Half Mile race, time will tell....

    That sound is BRUTAL. Pretty refreshing to see a blown V8 on the track rather than just shredding tires or blowing down a drag strip...
  • @jimbodee4043
    Nice and for a 1200HP super charged v8 with too big an engine to fit nicely under the bonnet, seems to go around corners reasonably well.
  • @LeDibeau
    I mostly like it how the car sways and rocks when you hit the gas pedal 😁
  • @leakingjar6801
    everyone on the track was so courteous i wish the public roads be safe like this :D
  • @jcc777
    That was extremely impressive. 20 past that Japanese minivan.. I guess nobody else realized they were actually racing lol
  • @rikusturck3743
    I am deeply impressed with that relentless power, what a handful she must be, well driven mate
  • @rkirschner7175
    62 years old. Grew up at the dragstrip. My late brother earned a Wally in early 70's. Indy summer national. Stock eliminations. Gasoline is for washing parts. Alcohol is for drinking. Nitro is for racing. 🦅🤔🙀
  • @petejones6827
    that silvia at 3:50 was quick you could see that pull he slightly hit
  • @42anon427
    It's awesome seeing this...rather than just at a car show, or another drag race.
  • @SirEpifire
    It's crazy how much power he's putting to such little tires. Needless to say, I can see why it laps everybody in the straight away.
  • @Wbfuhn
    The sweetest of V8 sounds. Music to my ears.
  • @MatthewRulla
    It's funny when the driver says "it's fast for Big car." The Falcon was considered a compact car when it was made.
  • @Eggyteevee
    I wouldnt even be mad for being overtaken by this Aussie Monster, racing side by side with this is like livin the dream
  • If only you had a street slick. This was so awesome. I always wanted to see something like this. Made me smile after a hard, hot ass day at work. This is awesome. Thank you
  • @Dontbeweakvato
    This is basically my racing theory in every racing game
  • @beauknowz
    Imagine looking in your rear view mirror and seeing this blue mad max coming in full bore… that blower would be menacing to say the least!
  • @michaelw6277
    I read the info to see what kind of event this was because it didn’t look like any track day I’d been to… still had to be a lot of fun to just open it up in that setting even if your speed was being restricted due to the “cruising” rules. It’d be wild to see something like this with a good suspension and brake setup out at a proper track event.
  • @graysonlove27
    Oh I wish we had a track like that here in the States. Plus looks like most drivers were respecting the turn. Here in the states everyone thinks they are a pro drag racer or pro drifter. I enjoyed the front and rear shots. Love how you walked everyone not to mention you did it without roasting the tires. Put a larger/softer compound (R888) and a set of coilovers and you will rule the nest!
  • @cj8172
    Now that's what I'm talking about! V8 power all day
  • @jasonsiebel8076
    Awesome sounds brah. Could listen to that sweet hum of the super charger all night. Must be a buzz stepping on the gas. Thank You 👍
