Default calling out PSJ pinks car

sorry about your wasted trip to KC. dont suppose you guys would want to line up with the car we built in hopes of geting on the show. yea our car isn't prety but it is in your et range. i would put the value around 10k. we could do a deal where if we loose you get the car and if you loose you pay cash rather than loosing a car that is worth more than ours.

if you haven't seen it here is vid that prety much sums up our car

Win the car & sell it back afterwards. If the show thinks it will just be given back they will prolly only do it if the losing car is put on ebay.

The different values of the cars shouldnt be an issue. How much do you want to spend to go fast.




......id be rootin for the budget turbo fairmont if the race did go down though.

Too bad you guys couldnt roll down the other night just to give him a taste, camaro could have already been in your garage.

You guys dont even need the show, just have Kyle put it together under 1320video.com and call it "Panks" so there are no trademark issues.

LSX shootout is Oct 11-14, at the NMCA finals. Memphis.

How about we just run against your truck? That 10.0 would have been a badass race! I'm done with the TV show, that train has moved on for us.

The Fairmont is worth as much as my open trailer

For a real challenge you would have to put up a car worth money or something like your truck.That makes it interesting since you have nothing to lose with the Fairmont
