Jamboree 2013 Action



Pac waited until the final round of racing to show what they're capable of. The new rotary world record now sits at 6.455sec and despite the slow start, the car ran an astonishing 4.199 @ 174.73 to half track proving this is just the tip of the iceberg.



Owning the fastest sport compact car on the planet isn't enough for Queensland's Scott Porter who decided to dust off his spare motor and stick it in his tuner's dragster. Their goal? How about the world's first 5sec sport compact vehicle!



We see more and more RMS cars every year at Jambo and they always put on a killer show.



Winner of the Precision Turbo Factory Xtreme bracket, Zoran Gajic, had dramas on Saturday, hurting an engine and missing out on their third round. An overnight engine change later and the Gas crew had the BMW on song, taking scalps and prizemoney in the process.





The bikini comp is always popular witht the punters at Jambo.


Jamboree is the home of the fastest rotors in the world and the braps came thick and fast all weekend.



Nitrous plus turbo plus tiny sedan = Jambo good times!



Po Tung top qualified and then took out the Pro 289 category in controversial circumstances after a sportsman tree was thrown on the startline instead of the correct pro tree.





Timeless.



Sunday's car show was old-school with the late-model Nissans and Toyotas replaced with early Datsuns, Mazdas and Corollas.





The Moit's Racing 10.5 Mustang struggled in the hot, slippery conditions but persevered and have the crowd a 6.11sec pass for their trouble, the quickest pass in Jamboree history.




SATURDAY:


Tim Graham's 1200 is a wheelstanding monster!



Alex Hayward had the two-step hammering with fire from the exhaust and the wastegate.



Ryan Blank was doing it for the SR fans. This is a certified 9sec weapon.



Dave Medwin prepares in the Rotary Motorsport RX-3.



Ben Palmer was wheels up in NOT808. 



Smoke, smoke and more smoke.





Matt Mingay and Stunts Inc were on hand to entertain the killer crowd in down time.



Chris Fakinos lets the smoke out of SIK100 after another huge skid.



The JSN Racing crew have had limited testing opportunities but still banged out a solid 7.80sec run.



It wouldn't be Jambo without promo girls.



Saturday's babe comp was hotly contested. Sunday is bikini comp time!



Last year's bikini comp winner, Lauren, took top spot in the babe comp.



Saturday's show'n'shine is 'New School'.



We're getting ready for records to be broken as day two of Australia's largest hi-tech drag racing and import event opens its gates at 8.30am!!!!
