'The Heat' is a 2003 VY SS Commodore Sedan that was
donated to the NT Police 'Beat the Heat (NT)' program by
Holden Ltd in October 2003. The car has been slightly
modified for 'drag racing' and 'badged up' in NT Police
livery to resemble an operational police car. The
original motor was provided by Holden Motor Sport and
was one of the first T1 series Monaro motors specially
built for Peter Brocks 05 Targa Monaro.
TheHeat has been developed for street racing
on the track and as such will remain in street trim and
continue to look as stock as possible.
In 2006 the motor was refreshed and upgraded to give
greater reliability and better performance. Whilst the
team will continue to gradually improve the performance
in the car,
In 2011 the motor was completely rebuilt and dyno tuned by Power Torque Engines
after sustaining some damage.
