RX on the Penna pike

I saw this car on the PA turnpike going east at the Willow Grove exit last week. It sounds like it has a turbo and was cruising at a pretty good clip for being on such a wet road and having those fat tires.

It looks like Trochoids, but it has a PA tag and he lives in MO.

Anyone on here own it?

Damn copycats, lol. Looks like an SA. Have they raised the speed limit there yet. Last time I was on the Pike it was 55, been a while.

I don't think Trochoid has that wing style on his, either. Nice looking car, tho.


EDIT: And, I just took a look at Trochoid's write-up on his car. Nevermind, same wing. Still bitchin', tho.

They have not raised the speed limit but they wont pull you over unless your going over 70mph.
It is a sweet ride I had to wipe the drool off my chin after I took the pic. ( :

Yea that looks sweet! Classic old school look! If that thing was headed north on the turnpike I bet it belongs to Dave88AE.....or something like that. He was at the rotorfest, but not with that car.
