Targa Tasmania 2013: Hunter Holden VL Walkinshaw Highlights 

by far the best sounding car in the tour. i could listen to it all day

nice drive VL great to see you drive it like you race it & fix it like its yr mates . that's fantastic

I can’t get enough of watching this car so it’s thing. Every year it sounds great. Who ever built the motor has excelled.

Awesome Vid, love the drifting there, and thats a really good paint job of the Bathurst warpaint on the series 2 VL SS Group A there

Hi Chris We're using Rota wheels, their Grid R model, 17x9". We wanted to find the closest we could to the original touring car and I must say that the wheels were probably the hardest thing to match. We couldn't fit the original Group A wheels in there (way to wide) and we couldn't find a 5 spoke design that was even close, so we ended up with this 6 spoke design and so far nobody has noticed............so please don't tell! ;-) Car does sound amazing, especially at about 4:34. Love it!

very nice bro this is why i love holdens i like the old school era

most fav car in targa , whole field of these would be amazing

:-) Hey John. It's built to do all that so that's not the reason. The reality was the the rockers had just reached the end of their service life. We figured on them being good for 4,500 km's but were anticipating that we could get 4,500 racing km's out of them. It appears in hindsight that the large amounts of gentle touring we do in events like Targa, just getting from one stage to the next, count against the rockers too. Lesson learned so we'll be back with new rockers soon! Adam

Ken Block move over! Looks great Adam, very impressive.

Amazing video, most enjoyable Targa vid I have seen in a long while!

Hey Nic, It's an 18 degree Chev, straight out of a VZ Supercar,

I love that machine, thanks for the video's

Awesome video, many thanks to our boss, Adam Kaplan, and his awesome Hunter Holden VL Walkinshaw for providing the entertainment and to Ben Sale at Other Side Productions for editing it all together so well. The car is currently on display in our new HSV showroom at 603 Victoria Road Ryde, so feel free to drop in and have an up close look.

Love this guy's driving. Perfect for that car.

It’s 1 thing to have the best looking & performing vehicle but, if u don’t have the right person in control of it......

haha the porsche nosed in to the ditch oops! Sick VL mate. I used to have a RB30 5spd one, wish I'd held on to it!

You have my total respect!

Great stuff

Great video, the car sounds great.Is it an original Walky and how much rwhp does this beast have?

from some angles with that blacked out ass end it looks like a VL ute😍

Fantastic video.

hows the 3 wheeling drifting at 2:09

Awesome!

that thing handles amazing for a vl :O

Sounds on the money!

It's good seeing a real man driving a real car how it's ment to be driven .... 💪🏼

Yes, original Walky. Not sure, around 700+ at the flywheel.

Nice mate 👍

Great video, guys. I did wonder what happened when you dropped of the results sheet part way through.

Um .. couldn't help but notice the "safety barriers" (1:44-1:58) HAY BALES?? WHAT THE?!! Oh, I seeeee .. they're to protect the cars from any panel damage caused by human body parts 😂😂

Hey Adam, What wheels are on your VL? I can't stop watching your video's, the car sounds amazing! Cheers, Chris

thought they looked like grids although i didnt think many people were using them on rally cars. also loved what old mate at the start says haah

Wicked!

What mirrors are fitted to this VL? They are not the factory ones but they do look very neat and modern.

What engine are you guys running

Did this vl run at Bathurst in the day?

What engine and exhaust set up are on the car?

NO IDEA WHY THE ROCKERS BROKE? HELLO! not the constant overrevving/wheel spinning?

what rims are on that ?

Make I will sell my soul for it

HEADPHONE WARNING...I you want to hear tomorrow. Turn them down. I you want awesome dreams tonight. Turn it up, then go to bed. lol

You. Blokes are mad

Just get rid of that head banging noise at the beginning, and all will be fine . . why do Australian car shows insist on behaving like morons by utilizing this disruptive clamor?
