I guess I just don't see your car but I know another fd in the area that's red that lives near you and his name is chad he has a t78. I live off of elbow road so we're all pretty much within 5 miles of each other.

I almost don't believe my 6.0 GTO kill... What can I say? We raced multiple times with the same outcome.
I was a little pissed though after getting walked by the Mercedes though... The (mid-life crisis) guy frikkin' waved at me like a dick-head as he pulled away. Too bad at around mid-4th gear he stopped pulling 
and I remained about two cars back for about 3-4 seconds before we hit our brakes for upcoming traffic.

There is a company who has the original plans and still sells and builds the chassis from those plans. This one one of those cars.

I'm not gonna congratulate you on gettin killed - these days you cant really beat very much with 260 horses...well maybe if you put that down through one wheel or if you weigh in at less than 2k lbs. lol
hey, at least you didnt get killed. better luck next time!
