on Tassy West Coast there a 3 mining towns and there was Tullah the big Hydro Electric Commission town, and in the 1980's and 1990's there were heaps of Aussie Muscle Cars in each town, doin the beat around the town and parking in the carpark, with the odd burnout, them days are long gone, now its Fast and Furious Jap Cars every where these days lol

Back when you got a slap on the wrist and told to f off. Now days, these guys would be put in jail longer than murders.

I was born & bred in Savage River on the west coast and back in the 80,s we used to have races out to the coast through the gorge ( which was the only way) from Savage in our muscle cars. I remember a guy with a genuine Salamanca L34 with a twin sunroof writing it off having one of these races on this road... Those were the days alright.... We had a blast !
