The Ultimate display of POWER - Best powerskids of 2010

Powerskids were started by Gup in his Powercruise events and have fast become one of the most popular events for both spectators and entrants. It's certainly one of the more spectacular driving events to watch.
It is also the ultimate display of horsepower. Anyone can rattle off numbers, however powerskids require cars to have big horsepower and to be setup right.
We have selected the best Powerskids from the events below(all we attended that had a powerskid comp) :
- Gazza Nationals
- Winton Performance Car Mania
- Queensland Powercruise
- Sydney Powercruise
- Summer SKidfest

Of all the sporting events I've seen, this is by far the most interesting and best to watch. I don't think any football game or baseball or whatever is better than blazing tires all day. In the end, its not a competition of speed, but finesse and craftsmanship!

[@conin76]

This video made me so happy

[@pedrotski]

i like the entry the xr6 at 1:50 did, was good to see a semi rolling start. a static start seems pointless when you have more power :P

[@varthdata]

Good to see some newer models out there too :)

[@Cammac8]

Another awesome video! Great footage! Love it!!!

[@electrichellion5946]

This is awesome.

[@Vortech398]

Nice video and well edited mate. All action!

[@Timsmo0th]

That first green car killed it!

[@duglas18rox]

[@marko308]

[@desireelouden5949]

[@Tom3294.]

[@TheCuz117]

That turbo at 40 seconds is big enough to eat a cat!

[@1982james111]

THUMBS UP FOR SUPERCHARGERS :) wicked belt noise.

[@modifiedcarforums]

@streetwiseATOWN you can buy different coloured tyres - blue / yellow / green / red

[@Hardscript]

certainly is

[@modifiedcarforums]

@cw147 yup for the most part they are, a chevelle and mustang in the mix, but you're 100% right most are aussie built cars

[@brayangarcia5908]

si esta chido

[@Ctram7]

do you have any footage from supernats at eastern creek, there was a a black ta22 celica with a 383 clevo with 500hp, its won top peformed SM and i cant find anything on supernats 2011

[@jdm80sbaby]

this is swweeeeet!

[@Sinema4De]

No we are just awesome! :D

[@cw147]

@Exaplex nah, it's a holden torana but there is some resemblence. almost all these cars are australian

[@mayer298]

how do you a power-skids?

[@JerryGiesler09]

What they do is that they dunked the tires into a very strong dye (industrial for example) and let it soak for a time. That way the tires can display the smoke color from the dye they're soaked.

[@williamhobza8937]

is the orange car at 1:56 a 66 dodge dart? or some aussie off breed.

[@kingcuda3037]

66 Dodge Dart ? Your joking right ?

[@Ares4991]

So, where can I buy one?

[@semtex84]

How many cars have you been in that have the power to spin the wheels while moving, using no brake at all, for hundreds of meters?

[@DsMxDeadpool]

The thing is we have been building our cars to actually hook up and run fast and not just blow the tires off. But thanks to videos like this some of us are getting inspired to build burn out cars and try this out because it looks fun as hell. Look how fast we picked up drifting after finding out about it from the Japanese. Side note Holden is owned by General Motors of the United States using our LS series motors. So given that you can forgive us for dumping the junk Fords on you guys too.

[@tophercomplex]

the truck at 2:56 the rest of the clip is at the biggest crashes, blowups, flames and close calls of 2010 lol

[@TheAussieFloof]

0:04 is that gups car with the turbo named elvis?

[@1XXxSn1p3zxXx]

Yeah Boii

[@makemegofast]

Please post up your powerskid effort for us all to judge!

[@1XXxSn1p3zxXx]

that Awesome supercharger sound at 4:55

[@SimplisticBeing]

[@frigusoris]

[@petrolpixie]

of all the cars that were in the video and there wasnt a single powerskid from the powerskid champion peter grey?? :(

[@imashankusobad]

What's car at 4:35? cheers.

[@3V1L011]

you start by spinning the wheels then its throttle control to keep the wheels spinning most people don't use brakes

[@mikesmith4468]

Bad ass

[@Brett321]

Can someone tell me what kind of car the second one was??

[@tonyghattas7828]

bf falcon

[@modifiedcarforums]

@Alexgotnicebody sure is mate - best place on earth !

[@matthewmckenzie6470]

[@ucnhtmenow1]

that was the first 60's mustang (a lot of those cars actually) I've seen right hand drive

[@ElMaximoBango]

yep

[@bugger06]

seems to me like everyone just holds it flatout. couldnt you find your results on a dyno, find where the engine produces the most torque and maintain the rpm? could that work better?

[@88preludedude]

at 1:12, that supercharger is the size of the motor in my car haha

[@darronmecak5720]

that black xe was the best

[@Exaplex]

@cw147 okay thanks

[@NeonLightsAreFun]

[@otaviospfc1]

Burning out just to go nowhere.

[@WogPride69]
