yeah like in rice movie all kids ran to 2 summers ago (forget the name),
*Fast and Th Furious* #2 comming out this summer I believe.
an 8's Quarter Mile dragster versus an impreza.. suuuuureee it would be
close. Not.!
First, it was a Supera. And think of the mods done to both. Plus the supera
was on the bottle. No bottle in the Charger.
Peace Out,
Rhett
