Lumina SS is not the Grandma Van that you had in the states.

what we have in this region is the Holden Monaro with the LS1 and 4l60e or T56, they came as 4 doors and coupes, the coupe looks like the GTO but it is still powered By LS1 and it pushing 350 Hp (motor).

In GCC, the racing scene, and the V8 muscle is quite big here, and our boys are doing great jobs modding them and racing them.

Drag racing is quite big too, we have ppl ruining anything from 14's (ricers) to mid 6's (Door slammers).

Pat musi was here in Bahrain not o Long ago to see some of his cars and motors ruining and damn he was happy.

I imagine each house has it's own tap... Seriously, that would be a HAVEN for high-horsepower cars! Cheap gas, long flat roads, and no Troopers!
