**The Kraken Awakens: Crafting a New Drag Racing Legend**
Greetings, fellow speed enthusiasts! It's Simon O'Carroll here, and I've got some thrilling news to share. I've embarked on a brand new automotive adventure, and it's all about breathing new life into a true drag racing legend - The Kraken.
But before we dive into the exciting details of this project, let me take you on a quick journey through The Kraken's history. This incredible machine began its life as a 1968 Camaro, originally designed to run as a 10.5 car in the United States. Over the years, it underwent several transformations, and it has now found its way into my capable hands.
The Kraken's story in Australia is fascinating. It once held the record for the second-quickest nitrous pass in the country. However, as time passed, this Camaro was transformed into a formidable radial racing machine under the skilled hands of veteran small-tire racer Stu Henry in Queensland. Then, it went through another remarkable phase under the guidance of Kyle Hopf from 6boost, who turned it into one tough turbo Hemi that was steered by Terry Seng. Now, it's my turn to carry on this incredible legacy.
Now, let's get into the exciting details of The Kraken's rebirth. The first order of business was to give this legendary machine a fresh look. We bid farewell to its original colors, which have seen it in shades of orange and green over the years. But I have something new planned that will be revealed soon, so watch this space to see it come to life.
Now, let's talk about what's under the hood of The Kraken. I had a vision for a powerhouse that could propel this Camaro to new heights of performance. While the previous engine and power combos were impressive, it was time for a change. The new heart of The Kraken is a Screw blown Hemi, and it's an absolute beast.
The Kraken has found a new home with me, and its transformation has begun. The journey ahead is one of dedication, skill, and a burning desire to push the limits of radial racing. I can't wait to see what The Kraken will achieve on the track, and I'm immensely grateful to my crew and supporters who are making this dream possible.
Stay tuned, fellow speed demons, because The Kraken is about to rise from the depths, and together, we'll make waves in the world of drag racing. The adventure has just begun, and I can't wait to share every twist and turn with all of you. Until next time, keep the rubber side down and the throttle wide open!
