GO! Show is nothing with out go. Go stands by itself.

RedLilPony · 02-21-2001, 08:27 PM

Well... my daily driver car is all show (because of that darn warranty!) so I would go for GO!!!!!!!

^5's Hammer!! You said it Bro!!

brooksgnm · 02-21-2001, 10:47 PM

Rule of thumb- a showcar must run at least a low 13 quarter, a racecar can look as horrid as you want as long as it goes fast!

You were at Autorama Red Lil?

Did you stop by the North Texas Mustang Club's spot? A few fellow club members had some beautiful rides out there...
