Good video Rob and lucky John would have one of the best employee cars going around..
What tyres were on the Ute when Rick Kelly took it for a spin?

[strik9]

yep awsome. good to see someone that can drive a car hard and know what to do with it. sounded nice.

[RedHotGT]

Any sort of irony - that the background music (Thunderstruck) was used in an advertising campaign for the Holden SS 'Thunder' Ute??

Steering wheel is too big.

Steering rack ratio is all wrong.

Not enough rear grip

Rear suspension is loose

Understeering on the front

A monster motor needing to find a decent chassis

This is what happens when you try to turn a quasi-truck into a track vehicle

U would need BIG BALLS to push that hard in the wet....paging Glen Seaton! [Monstered the Skyline in the wet!]

You are just painful.

A Bathurst winning GM Holden driver said he had massive fun in the FPV GS Ute that Rob has tricked out.

Your comment would have been so much better if it was just this. Oh BTW it's 'Seton'

Well done, I hope it helps drive more business and awareness of the FPV product too.

[tweeked]

Great stuff Rob, missed watching the Ute most of the time, I did catch the dyno though - that was impressive!

[SpoolMan]

I seen this Ute yesterday took a couple pics of the liverie I will post later, as Rob stated its driven on a daily basis by John (Herrod Manager).
Whilst driving he wears this. work-cover requirement

Raser,

Correct me if i'm wrong, but until fairly recently didn't the sports or racing varients usually have larger steering wheels than the standard car?

Dosen't the Falcon actually have a fairly decent turning circle compared to most race cars? Meaning you don't actually need a lot of lock to get around corners?

I admit the Rear suspension belongs under a 6x4 trailer rather than a 500+ HP performance vehicle though.
