Looks like siguel is going after abels record.....

Is he Rican? He looks like a white boy.

Looks like they got the whole track to themselves-must be nice.

Dunno which one to buss a nut over...................... the Rx8 or the International RTX hauler and split lever trailer :scratch: :mspank:

DAMN!!! I would like to know the 60' on the first launch.

Awesome ride and rig. If I had the money!

yes Rican.. Puerto Ricans come in all shades of color. a diverse culture.. alot of european blood in the island. there is also alot of african heritage in the island.. a rainbow of colors.. a little history 101.. yes they rented the track to try and sort out the chassis.. that Rx8 has been giving Siguel a hands full, for some time..

Is that more than the regular rig setup that you see at the tracks?

Ofcourse not......we have much bigger and badder rigs here, but our guys travel country wide thats the reason they have them. The "turn on" factor is that PR is smaller than CT and the Int'nl RXT is close to 100k fully loaded and it can be driven as a personal vehicle also..

If you think thats serious bling for a small island then how about our own island which is 1/2 the size of PR, but a guy imported a $120K Int'nt CXT and installed a $100k system in it.. The islanders really know about style :lol:

:-)

What's with bringing back a 4 year old thread? Is Major league back in action?
I remember when there was big hype on this car that everyone thought they would do this and that.............................................. .........

Maybe Aaron knows something we don't.
Do tell.
This would be cool if the car comes back out

I heard things :fingersx:

Tell us if you know something lol

What you guys herd? Im not rican & I don't live in PR, so I'm not lucky to get top secret info...

All I heard is that the car might be back in 2012. I am rican, but dont have the connections :lol:

I regret to inform u that this car is lost forever along with a couple others, they are in federal custody. If u wanted seen it in a while then most likely its one of the other ones.

That's what I heard too

Wow, seems like everyone has herd something or the other... Good stuff

Keep the info coming

What other cars were taken?

a bunch, where u been? there have been several auctions but everybody is scared to buy them... the feds have some of the fastest rotary's and they don't know what to do with them... old, sad news...

I'm curious, but how exactly does in guy from the west coast get this sort of info? Also, why would someone be "scared" to buy those cars?
