This weekend saw the running of Power Cruise 14 at Qld Raceway. If you haven’t heard about Power Cruise, it is basically a huge modified carfest held over four days with everything from a Show ‘n’ Shine to Power Skids to safe Off-Street Drags to Dyno competitions and Drifting sessions being held.

Although we only made it for Saturday’s action I can tell you that the action was a plenty and the quality of the cars was outstanding.

There was a noticeable lack of blue oval entrants however there was a number of Chevy’s, Imports and a Hot Rod or two to balance out the Holdens.

What sets Power Cruise apart from other car meets is that there is a strict no alcohol rule and being held at privately owned race tracks around our fair country means that you can enjoy driving your modified car the way it was meant to be driven – in a safe, controlled environment without fear of the boys in blue jumping down your throat.

For more information on when and where Power Cruise is held jump on to the Official Power Cruise Website. Even as spectator’s we had an absolute blast but we have all vowed not to return without an entered vehicle, the fun these guys and gals were having out on the track is infectious!

You can see some of our pics from the day on the Photo Gallery and we have a hundred or so more images to add over the next couple of days.

Oh and a word of warning – if you’re busting for a leak and the toilets are being cleaned DON’T go behind a tree in the car park, undercover cops are everywhere!!

Here’s some video from our day out. They have what is called the ‘Half Hour Of Power’ where a selection of the most powerful cars get to go out and have some fun on the track. The video is taken from the pit lane as they lined up. The video quality is ordinary but it gives a good idea of the standard of cars out there this weekend.
