Default peter pans ride

I drove peter pans car to work this morning. The power is awsome! How have the tires lasted one year? It will smoke them without even trying. I am surprised it's still in one piece. It was a 30 mile drive and I wanted to go further. It's an awsome ride. Thanks Steve

I know if I rode in Steve's car I'd be shopping for a forged short block myself....sounds awesome. Have you gotten some 1/4 mile numbers out of the car?

BTW....It's a D1SC, Steve, time to fix your sig and avatar.... ;-)

Why do you think he got you to install his roll bar? Steve's always thinking ahead-he needs you in 1 piece BTW where does the line start for roll bar installs?
