does anyone know what ever happened to it? for those of you that dont know what im talking about, ford built an svt with 100 shot of nitrous with a timed base progressive control system, a GKN limited slip diff, and a few other goodies. i assume it was crushed?

Yep... 2002 at Lane Automotive. I drove it there. I think the SHO wagon was out there at that show too. My memory is shot so if WorldTour or Todras can remember for sure, feel free to correct me. I keep confusing those 2 Lane shows because one was Puff and the other one was the V6 Focus.
 
I often get the 2001 and 2002 Lane shows mixed up in my head as well.
The Puff was at the 2001 show though.
That's the first and last time I ever saw/heard of it.

The Cougar Eliminator and the SHO Wagon were there the same year... I remember driving the Cougar out there and it had a hard time holding an idle. Rara and I swapped (he drove the SHO wagon out) because he dropped the Cougar back off at work (he lived closer). I also know that I've been to SZ with Puff and the V6 Focus.

Cougar/SHO Wagon must've been '02 and then the red V6 Focus was '03. If that was the year everyone was hanging out in the Clarion parking lot, that is... I just remember giving some rides up and down Cork St. in that thing.

My God... my memory is shot. :D Too much beer.

Chili Pepper was out for one of the Fall drives; Mark and I had fun stopping at the autoparts stores looking for plug wires for a 99 V6 Focus, and confusing the crap out of the parts counter monkeys. :D
 
I swear to GOD that V6 Focus was out at SZ... I can remember Todras riding shotgun and shooting video from the passenger seat.

Holy crap. Don't start drinking beer, kids. Better yet, don't spend 5 years at Western Michigan University drinking said beer. :D
 
so if nobody knows what happened to PUFF how about this one
