Angry The wife said no-way

I can't imagine anything cooler than this being pulled to the track behind a Lightning. Powered by a Hyabusa engine, what do you guys think?

Speedfreak,

Yeah, that would be sweet.

Vinnie,

Yeah, that IS sweet. Do you drive it, is it yours? I'm going to have to visit Jersey, seems like everydamnbody on this board lives there!

Is that supposed to be like an insult or something ...

And speaking of logo's, I once knew a girl that had a birthmark the shape of NJ on her forhead

Joe,

The Hurricanes are holding on by a thread, one more loss and they're gone. This is the first time in the playoffs and it's really got a lot of people interested in hockey for a change. I've never been a big hockey fan but I'm sure enjoying this. When it's the hometown boys I guess it means a lot more to you.

Tim

VINNIE has the right idea!

A friend of mine has been into this for a couple of years.
A new car for 12K, used ones come up for less.

Very competitive, very affordable.

I didn't know this even existed before I met him.

In about two years I'll be in position to strap in and start tradin' paint!

Thumbs down

The canes should have been stopped in round 1 ... maybe if NJ didnt choke that is....damn devils are inconsistant these days..oh well

Too bad the Lightning have sucked since day one or I might actually like my home team instead of NJ.

Yep ,That my name on the top of the car door and thats me in it.I do not know photoshop well enough to put it there.LOL.
I have been racing something or another since I was a kid.BMX,Go -Karts and Legend Cars.
As Latemodelracer2 can agree with.It is very competitive but very fun.Last year I finished 4th in points out of 32 competitors at Kutztown Speedway in pennsylvania.
This year I am not racing as much.My concentration is on 1/4 mile with the L.Not used to just going straight.

Vinnie: Cool Car!

I know that things got to be a blast! The closest Ive come to that (and we're talking way off) was the "bomber" class dirt track cars. A buddy had this old POS Malibu that he let me drive for a few non competitive laps (packing the track I think they call it) It was fun a he!! getting all squirrely around the corners. I have a lot a respect for the guys with the high powered cars such as yours and the outlaw series going so fast on such short tracks. Y'all go so fast it looks like you only straighten the wheels out for a second before your deep into the next turn. Anyway I think I'd be more apt for the road racing. Who knows I may have time to soften up the wife by the time they decide to start selling those Suzukis.
