Your right. I think in cheap street or something, that white mustang couldn't handle that white corvette , when he ran him over. That was wild!

I went to the Clash, lots of awesome cars...makes me miss houston

I've never seen so many 7 and 8 second cars in the same place at the same time, I will be back next year

Richard @ Strictly looked like he had his yellow car dialed in nicely, I think I saw a 7.71 in the last round of qualifying.
