This makes a grown man moist in places he never knew existed until now.

[@alltorkadventures1139]

Oh my god so true .. will never best the sound.... true Aussie icon.

[@warren4110]

That’s far too much information!!! 😂😂

[@fr0gg1us90]

Are there truer words spoken ever🤣🤣

[@mavros66]

Yep

[@15cuhonda6]

These days that would be called transgendering .

[@deputycartman]

Loved that bloke’s reaction to stalling it. 😂 Most Australian thing out. 🇦🇺

[@dan0000023]

Muscle cars like receiving the feedback, they try harder next time😁

[@adams4134]

I've been watching Aussie motor racing since I was 5. I used to get up before dawn and with my Dad, watch the Hardie Ferodo ALL DAY LONG. Headlights on to finish. This is honestly one of (if not the) BEST V8 racing videos that has come out of this country. Sound 10/10 Racing 10/10 Christ you two have a great life.

[@leeroys207]

Good stuff Adam, brings i thought it was around 1987 when i watched this

[@nicvoid]

Thank you for not bleeping that like some Yank channel would. Things like that need to be heard in all their glory, fuck ya!

[@woopimagpie]

KZbin will demonetise clips that have "adult language". That's why they censor the language. It's got nothing to do with nationality, you utter peanut.

[@nicvoid]

@@woopimagpie OK I was being a tad facetious. I mean who uses the word yank in 2021. BUT, you can't sit here and say Americans aren't the most conservative when it comes to swearing (and nudity of course). I've been re-watching the X Files and I read that the network execs didn't want Scully to use the word crap. In a show where monsters violently kill people. Watching American stuff over the course of my life, one thing is plainly clear. Guns and violence = fine, swearing and tits = NO WAY! So it is very much about nationality/culture. That being said, pretty much most of the shit I watch on KZbin don't beep the fucks. Hence my facetiousness. I guess most of the channels I watch don't give a fuck about being demonetized. Or, just if you actually Google it, KZbin don't care that much about fuck. And it's racial slurs and general bigotry they have a problem with. Although obviously not in the comments section.

[@russellchristison8425]

And for not added music over the top of the V8

[@CCBTL]

we need to appreciate the effort of Aleshia Penney.

[@leeroys207]

I agree and she is so calm!

[@waynemorrison5204]

Yes 👍

[@tommychev350]

Brings a tear to the eye in a good way. Many bathurst memories. And what a noise. Fantastic.

[@niallobrien4736]

What a glorius noise!!! Love the signatures at the start of the stages.

[@Thunder-cx4yq]

The control of the car this driver has is second to none. Out Effin Standing!

[@lindonandlisa8114]

I think your VL group a is the greatest Australian car of all time such a joy to watch and listen to thanks for all the great memories

[@jimmyb4982]

Had to watch this a second time. Once was just not enough.

[@pgti6]

And the consumer award for the most tyres purchased for the event goes to Adam Kaplan!

[@fullboost]

Awesome video guys :)

[@brendannunya77]

Best first 15 seconds 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@leeroys207]

Also just recorded first 23 seconds of audio to my phone and set as my morning wake up alarm, great way to wake up in the morning and get going!

[@g6et_wrx177]

So many great memories as a kid watching these things race in touring cars. Still love the look of a Wilki. Never gets old!

[@nobrakes7247]

Alechia saved the day And has nerves of Steel Wish that I had one of those as my wing person

[@shaqshuka8392]

Doesn't get old. Great edit, wonderful footage. Something just so wholesome about the laughter a hard launch and a couple of dark lines can create.

[@ChumpyChicken2]

I remember reving one of the road versions and they sounded bloody awesome twin throttle body’s.

[@warren4110]

I’m not even a Holden fan and I enjoyed that!!

[@mozart4733]

I can't get enough of this car.

[@vlfreak]

thanks adam for not just being a collector who keeps them in a shed and dusts them off 👍🍻 doesnt matter who you are, you just have to chuckle at how aussie it is to just drop a set at every stage start, "just because"

[@leeroys207]

Due to the tall gear ratios is difficult to start quickly any other way, you can see what happened when the revs were too low in the first 10 sec of the vid

[@scottgoodwin1073]

Great camera work great editing just loved the whole thing thanks

[@Dagashi6669]

Still one of my ultimate dream cars.

[@Hezath]

Every bit of this is exemplary. Great video, great attitudes, and that VL is so perfect it just inspires everyone else to build sweet road racing cars.

[@the510wagon]

That sound!! Sooo good.

[@akira5982]

Always had a soft spot 4 a walky 🙂 i remember oldies dissed them coz they were made of plastic, now u can barely get a car made of metal

[@P3t3rPizzarelli]

This is my favourite video on KZbin

[@elmotovonbrappbrapp4080]

One of the best vids I still get chill watching this top bloke awesome car

[@jamieshields9521]

Great vid👍brings back old memories of old school V8 racing

[@garynorman5179]

Great drive and what a glorius sound.

[@PaulRobinsonRacing]

Best sound you'll ever hear

[@CadillacDriver]

Up there, but no🤔 The Rolls Royce Merlin and 1950s Indy cars are my pick.

[@lindonandlisa8114]

That car is a national treasure

[@FlavioSpirit]

Bom dia !!!!!! Cara, que Máquina fantástica. O barulho do Motor é como música. Lindo demais..... Obrigado pelo vídeo e parabéns pelo canal. Abraço do Brasil.....

[@peterg321]

Great to see you still love your Targa Tassy Adam! Car is wonderful and you haven't lost any of your driving skills... I hope the throttle cable issue didn't impact on your time for the stage, did you get the trophy this year? Cheers Peter Godden Targa 1994-1997

[@kdigity]

My favourite parts are; A) the first start “F$&k ya” and “my hero” 2) Every competitor that enjoyed your starts more than you! 👌🏻😂

[@MrR31power]

Music to my ears sounds great

[@basedreams]

Driving it how a holden wants to be driven... That guy right there is the life blood and soul of Straya!! lest we forget

[@kenoath193]

Could watch that all day with my eyes shut.

[@bigal878]

Now that is a tuff sounding race car. Mint 👌

[@markusparkinson8514]

Just brilliant V8 action, so aggressive on throttle

[@chrisgraf1304]

Those Walkies go nice. Real nice ♥️

[@dangoodwin5400]

That is just god damn magical!

[@MH-cw6qn]

This made my day such sweet sound

[@DonnyDRacing]

Omg what a sound track.

[@shaundelphin9145]

If I ever win loto I would definitely buy this car over a Porsche or Ferrari GUARANTEED 🇦🇺👍

[@frucklerbullpit]

If he sold it..

[@paulcombes3782]

OMG....That was awesome . Whoever owns , or ends up owning this VL , please never bend it .

[@jb243wp]

Yeah it would be a shame to to see it the wrong way up, take it easy, keep the rubber side down and keep coming back year after year 👍

[@fredfungalspore]

Peter Brock was my all time Hero in the wet on top of mount panorama in the VL in 1987...

[@YuriBruschi]

Spectacular video, monster engine! Well done! 👍

[@whitey1195]

Absolute weapon 🤘🏻🔥😎

[@Godzilla32]

Totally awesome stuff!!

[@subah007]

That VL set up is magic

[@stewartarmstrong3215]

What a beast.

[@jamieslalom]

That gave me goosebumps 🤙

[@ragebait988]

Simply amazing.

[@cyclonicleo]

Sounds so damn good! What a beast.

[@stevenleades]

WOAH did I just see VL V8 drive past a servo? That sound though, lovely to see a holden getting around

[@Dazm229]

Awesome sound. There’s nothing quite like a V8

[@roddas26]

That was awesome.

[@dons1932]

What is it about the Chev 18*Deg V8 Supercar engines that gives them that screaming wailing sound? Up high they almost sound staccato like, like a Ferrari V8. Is it the siamese port heads? Was the best era of V8 Supercars too I reckon. VT - VZ era. No better sounding V8SC engines ever. Not even the Aurora Holden MotorSport ones - they sound similar, but don't quite have the high pitch scream. The Fords have it around this era as well. Btw, before anyone asks what I'm on about. This car runs a Supercar engine from a VZ.

[@jpolito5]

Agreed

[@ghostridersnr]

I think the sound your referring to is actually from the gear box.

[@dons1932]

@@ghostridersnr No I'm not talking about the straight cut gearbox whine.

[@quaussiemoto3939]

I did the same thing in assetto corsa did a straight engine swap with the VZ, it is mental to drive!

[@kman6482]

Awesome stuff

[@getdislikedbitch]

I been driving this car on Assetto Corsa thanks to some modders that made it, and the body roll is insane

[@frucklerbullpit]

That's some fancy driving right there..

[@georgeflutey838]

That is awesome

[@soloist7353]

Music to the ears!

[@aaroncopson6711]

Haha great explanation of a broken throttle cable.

[@stevepeters3032]

That makes me warm and fuzzy inside.

[@marksanders7988]

That thing is SICK!!!!!!

[@westhenderson6587]

Luv it !!

[@mickv2tshaw187]

Made my day

[@tonyt6751]

Right o! Love the ten percent teaser.... where is the rest...more please! Love their work!

[@MrConspark]

Just Wow!

[@willmorgan365]

Bloody unreal!

[@kimboDragon]

Awesome Signature dish.. 11s :)

[@Eltalstro]

Hilarious that they left that stall on the vid.

[@HeartLessGem_]

"Hahaha excellent" 😂👌🏽

[@BingsGarage]

This is the best

[@un1sol_gr444]

[@poeyd9624]

[@edenfarms5523]

Insaaaane!!

[@PeterJohnson76]

In the time I've loved the walkinshaw VL I've seen them go from $30,000 to $300,000 I just love them. I had white replica with a clubsport motor as a daily driver for 20 years . Does anyone know if this kit if fibreglass or carbon fibre ?

[@paulsutton5549]

I would love to do Targa one year

[@mozart4733]

same

[@allentrevena6841]

Hard enough to do those road in the dry, but the wet.. kinda madness..

[@tommo98765]

That stall moment 😅🤣😂

[@khaoscorporation3921]

Gawd I miss my VL right now

[@Rover101]

My only pet hate about targa racing is trees that don't give way.

[@Stefan_Eccles]

🔥

[@bluroket]

The balls/lady balls on this pair driving this in the wet, holy snapping duck shit!! Three fatalities this year :(

[@rohansully584]

"My Hero!" - hehehe

[@CallMeMrX]

So good! Just needs the original wheels and it would be perfect.

[@Lastindependentthinker]

Lol at the start. Don't drive angry..

[@skinzz57]

I want one..

[@nauseous3925]

that sound is just......omg 1:51
