This is a photo from the front sorry it's a bit dark.
Yeah it does look a bit high at the rear but thats because it was about to pounce!

different wheels and lowering the back should do it a hell of a lot of justice and look real nice :D

i'd do that if I still had it but alas she is no more I sold it about 6 years ago to captain shiner here on the forums. I drive valiants now, an S series an R/T E 38 and a Jepp grand cherokee LTD but I would really want a widebody which I will look at getting sometime in the next 12 months.

Any body recognise this car? (don't say any thing Stace see if they guess)
I will reveal the details later tonight.

Okay here is clue number 1: (Stace might not even be aware of this!)

The JB rims on this car are from the Yokohama/Fitzgerald championship winning production car.

Clue 2 in about an hour! :D

here is a pic a few years earlier!

Is this the racing Starion, Group E i think you posted about a while ago.
I remember reading you say one of the racing ones you owned was converted to Holden V6

groupAralliart · Post by **groupAralliart** » Wed Apr 02, 2008 9:12 pm

Right on the mark but even better would have been that this is THE factory Mitsubishi, Kevin Bartlett/ Peter McKay group E race car!

YES and yes! Full ralliart war paint until I sold it with the new white full coat to Stace in 1989/90? This thing was a rocket on rails and never missed a beat. I run it at Lakeside and set a new lap record at the time for production cars on a worn out set of 195 wide Yokohama A008's. It would crack 180+ through the kink on the main straight and Dean Tighe in his cosworth escort looped it trying to outbrake it into carousel. I bought the JB Fitzgerald car and so had to on sell this gem.
One little side note - I had to look after Peter Fitzgeralds group E series 5 RX7 one weekend: that thing was an absolute rocket, would kill the starion in a straight line and had a few 'rule breakers' attached. I almost wrote it off! I think back and wonder why he gave it to a speed freak 20 year old!

Im interested in hearing about the "rule breakers" fitted to the S5.
