Default Powercruise to hit the USA!

Yup you heard it here first, Powercruise is set to take on the States in 2009.
the USA trademark office has aproved Powercruise as a trademark in 43 of 50 odd states just yesterday. just in time for the 2009 callender. now there is a secret thats never been released. you heard it first here.

Having spoken to a few Americans about the types of events they have over there, Powercruise will absolutely smash everything they currently have. It will also be nice to see a few Aussie burnout machines get taken over there to show these guys what a real burnout is. Look for any videos of American burnouts and you’ll be staring at static hole diggers!
Good luck to Powercruise, hope we can make the trip over there for it too!

I think though GUP would need to take some genuine aussie muscle cars like toranas, falcons or something as they have never seen them before.

I can't believe the big fella has let the cat out of the bag!!! LOL...
That's one of the Powercruise events that Kerry & I didn't mention at PC12 on the weekend cause I didn't know Gup had made it general public knowledge BUT now that I see the boss has let it slip...
How good is the USA going to be????? If you do look at American Street Car Event DVD's you'll see that they don't have many sorry ANY events where entrants can "cruise a race track" or take part in a decent burnout comp like we are treated to in Australia.
Imagine the level of Pro Street Cars that an event like Powercruise will attract in the States...
Good on ya Gup, can't wait to see the Flight Itinerary with my name on it - Destination, the good ol U.S of A...
I've also got to say regardless of whether you love or hate Gup, Top marks for even thinking about orchestrating an event of Powercruise's magnitude and for taking it into a market like the US... Not bad for an old plumber from the back of Boonah...
