What was really sweet was the snowmobiles, street bikes, and quads. The fastest quad ran the 1/4 in 6.8 secs!!! Yes, thats on a 4 wheeler! It was sick. The fastest Grand Prix in the nation was also there. He ran 11.9. It's kinda cool to personally know the guy. I suppose his "passenger" (his laptop that controls EVERYTHING) may have something to do with it. Hmm... Mike "You might beat me in a straight line, but I'll embarass you in the turns"

Behind the engine he's running headers and pretty much straight thru exhaust. The Damn thing sounds like a built V8. Anything "correctable" is done thru his laptop. It's a pretty sweet setup. The best part of his car has to be the Whale Tail style spoiler he has on when hes running around town. Surprising how many ricers actually try! Anyways his name is Zoom. Go figure.

I will check my informers accuracy before posting next time. Mike "You might beat me in a straight line, but I'll embarass you in the turns"
