Wink Mexico Fun

Went for a cruise down in Mexico this past weekend, had lots of fun. I'm in my TA, maroon cobra is turbo making around 800-900 5.0 with a 76mm turbo I believe, red truck is a LS2 stroker with a 200 shot I think (he was having wiring issues), the maroon chevy truck is a LQ9 with heads/cam/intake making around 500, the silver TA is heads/cam/intake with a 150 shot, the silver formula with flames is a 383 solid roller and in car filming is a TBSS with heads and cam.

Enjoy

Thats prolly cause your part of Mejico is in the desert....you gotta go way down south to get the green grass.

Good runs Eric, looks like El Diablo is breathing better now.
