I saw the sweet car program on TLC last night. Yeah I hear some of
those rice rockets pull the 60s in under 4 seconds.... Most were
hitting ets in the 11s....wow.... Of course they were all juicing the
hell out of their cars, and messing with the timing like crazy. I even
saw a Honda mini van run a 14.2, holy cow bat man. I think I just
messed my pants. Not too mention the driver was the mom, oops no
offense. That little bus is kicking the fat boy's grocery getter of
Horse Power TV, hahahahahaha..... I hear there are a number of rice
rockets hitting the track in my area. The show I saw was checking out a
strip in Southern California.... There must have been hundreds of
Hondas....

Ya, I saw the same thing. I also saw the import drag races on
ESPN2 one
night. There were some pretty fast cars there. Running betw.
10's and
15's. But most of these had NOS on them, among other things.
They were
pretty fast, but they all got beat out by one car. What was it
you ask?
Well, it wasn't American, but it wasn't Jap either. I was a
newer
Porsche. It ran like low 9's. I'd take that one. :O)
