    Enjoyed the vids...next time try not to be so easy on the car and go ahead and give it hell.:biglaugh: :burnout: :drive: :burnout:

    It reminds me of watching Dennis snatching gears in his sprint at last years Round-up. I was very surprised to see that even after the rotiserrie
    resto he did he still drives it HARD at the track.(y)

    Cool video. So did you go back to the poverty caps, or is this an old video? I noticed the trees were bare.
