I'm not proud of him, but my young bloke held the Victorian record for illegal road speed for a while.
Geoff has a Holden Maloo Utility and was caught at 236km/h, in a 100km/h zone. We had to fight hard to keep him out of the slammer. In the end he was only fines $1,000 and 12months loss of licence.
The Holden Maloo ute is nothing more that a race car in a utility body. These 6.3litre, 6 speed utes will do around 300km/h. Well liked by the younger set and costing around $67,000.
I hope that he has learnt his lesson because if he's picked up again, he will forfit the vehicle and end up in the slammer.
Regards Rick
