Who else has an unregistered car they use for burnouts/paddock bashing/rallying etc
I currently have a 4spd '85 corona wagon I got for free (running but out of reg) and I used to have an Auto '82 Gemini until we rolled it and before that an old '81 rolla.
We used to just use them to drive around my friends paddocks but recently we have made a small rallycross style track and also a jump lol which I may post some photos of.
We also use them for "midnight rallying" sessions on some nearby forestry roads which used to be used for the NSW rally champoinship until a few years ago
The Corona wagon we are currently using is has about 10 times better ride than the Gemini or old rolla but has an annoying tankslapping tendency, The gemini could recover from way more agressive slides than either of the other 2 but felt really flimsy and unsafe and the rolla was damn near un blowuppable. We tried to kill it's engine after the rust beacme too bad by putting in 20L of fuel and sitting a brick on the gas in neutral but it just continued to scream until running out of fuel!!!!
If you've never had the experience of driving a car when don't care whether or not you damage it, I suggest you try it, it's quite fun to see how much of a thrashing a car can actualy take

good work man, the fact that the rolla wouldnt blow up is soooo gold, and so damn true too
