WARNING TO ALL. Turn down the volume on your speakers. I had mine cranked and when the vid kicked in it scared the SH*% outta me! Sounds awesome gator!! I liked seeing the flames at the end of the clip there.

If you think that was something you should see the 100' black marks in front of Mark's house left there by him in a diesel pickup truck
