    For some reason (I can't quite put my finger on it), a race entitled "Pinky vs. Plum" does not conjour up visions of a manly race.:hmmm:

    Wow, Don! That's BOTH wheels off the ground and going straight!

    Your SFC's and roll bar are sure doing their job with the car's stiffness!

    Awesome picture! I've saved it to my hard drive (along with a few of the other guy's too -
    just to be fair ;) ).

    It looks manly and it was. But, imagine a flyer for the dragway, listing the main attraction as "Pinky vs. Plum."



    I would love to be at the next one and show you how it's done. (y) It will depend on where the next one is held. Potentially, I could be there with three Mavs - two of 'em at the strip. Just remember the name "Fat Boy's Toy.":dance:
