Default Found a badass car while I was in Brazil!

Usually when I travel in the US I am accustomed to seeing nice cars in all of the big cities I travel to, but in Brazil, there weren't many nice cars to speak of. One of my customers who had bought some DVD's from me a couple months back contacted me to tell me his friend had a nice drag car in Sao Paulo, BR where I was staying for work. I wasn't really sure what to expect, but I was VERY happily surprised at what I found. The owner, Adriano gave me a run down of the car, took me for a drive around the city for a couple of miles, and then we got to check out their shop & another one of the cars they are building a few days later, it really made my trip fun.

Here's some pictures of the car - http://www.1320video.com/5000-miles-...eet-car-lurks/

Some older video of him racing (the car is faster now) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDHzsytFOEY
