i was at our local track last year with my ten second street car, in the burnout box waiting for the signal to do my burnout. staged in front of me was an eagle talon awd visiting from another area. slicks on all four corners. i thought nothing of it. i will never forget what that thing did on launch- it's prolly a seven second quarter mile car ( ours is an eighth mile track). i looked up, and IT WAS GONE! and it used every inch of the track. i will race anyone, any time (at the track), but that guy would have killed me. so i end up drawing him in the first round of eliminations. i leave first (obviously) and wait for him to catch me. he broke on the starting line (transmission). i went a few rounds that day and drove home. no biggie. but i will never forget what that car looked like from behind going down the track. i think it ran a mid five? at a high altitude track?


for what is the good life if not doing things thoughtfully?
