The incredible Killa B Camaro burnout machine is back in action, this time creating huge plumes of both white and blue smoke while showing off in an Australian burnout competition.
The Australian burnout competition scene is a very unique one from what we know in the United States. These cars are built to do absolutely nothing more than annihilate the rear tires. The Killa B Camaro is one of the most popular of the Aussie burnout machines, and this week’s Burnout Friday video features Steve Nogas’ Wicked Chevy muscle car.
This is a car that we have featured in the past from an older video, but this time, the Killa B Camaro is yellow with black trim rather than black with yellow trim. There are also some new graphics and rather than tires which smoke bright purple – Steve has fitted the car with tires which burn bright blue. Fortunately, he still has the monster 632 cubic inch big block V8 topped by a 16/71 Littlefield supercharger – allowing this Camaro to offer somewhere in the area of 1,750 horsepower.
Now, that is more than enough power to destroy the biggest tires that you can fit in the rear wheelwells of a 5th gen Camaro, but to make the burnouts even easier, the Killa B Camaro has tiny little tires out back – so the tire smokin’ action is even better.
Finally, Steve fits the car with skinny little rear tires which burn bright colors and in the video below, after a warmup run with normal tires (which make white smoke), the 1750hp Camaro has tires that create blue smoke. As you will see, the bright colors add a little something extra to the burn out, making the burnout action even more exciting.
As you might imagine, a 1750hp blown Chevy big block sounds incredible while in action, so crank up your speakers and enjoy!
"Before I was old enough to walk, my dad was taking me to various types of racing events, from local drag racing to the Daytona 500," says Patrick Rall, a lifetime automotive expert, diehard Dodge fan, and respected auto journalist for over 10 years. "He owned a repair shop and had a variety of performance cars when I was young, but by the time I was 16, he was ready to build me my first drag car – a 1983 Dodge Mirada that ran low 12s. I spent 10 years traveling around the country, racing with my dad by my side. While we live in different areas of the country, my dad still drag races at 80 years old in the car that he built when I was 16 while I race other vehicles, including my 2017 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat and my 1972 Dodge Demon 340.
"Although I went to college for accounting, my time in my dad’s shop growing up allowed me the knowledge to spend time working as a mechanic before getting my accounting degree, at which point I worked in the office of a dealership group. While I was working in the accounting world, I continued racing and taking pictures of cars at the track. Over time, I began showing off those pictures online and that led to my writing.
"Ten years ago, I left the accounting world to become a full-time automotive writer and I am living proof that if you love what you do, you will never “work” a day in your life," adds Rall, who has clocked in time as an auto mechanic, longtime drag racer and now automotive journalist who contributes to nearly a dozen popular auto websites dedicated to fellow enthusiasts.
"I love covering the automotive industry and everything involved with the job. I was fortunate to turn my love of the automotive world into a hobby that led to an exciting career, with my past of working as a mechanic and as an accountant in the automotive world provides me with a unique perspective of the industry.
"My experience drag racing for more than 20 years coupled with a newfound interest in road racing over the past decade allows me to push performance cars to their limit, while my role as a horse stable manager gives me vast experience towing and hauling with all of the newest trucks on the market today.
