he does drive it down, & yes he loves to rope it off, vip tickets only to go over the rope
love to tell the tale of how he bought the car,
He is quite knowlegeable but is even more outspoken than dave

According to the pretty pictures and write up in ACW Jan 06 the car has an Arruzza built 511 hemi,good for 630hp.

Plus a Mr Watts built 727 and race spec 'vertor,can't see he forgot to upgrade the prop at the time.

Car would be better with a dressed up 318 and the 511 and box put in a car that deserves it.

He's obviously worried (knows) it ain't gonna do what he's claimin it will......
People who "rope off" cars are tossers imo

if there that important, leave em at home
