In keeping with the alcoholic theme of the racing team, I suggest either the "King Cobra", "Colt 45 Malt Liquor" or the "Zima".....

Anything can beat Gavin from Drag Night with his 12mp (mp=man power), I believe that's how many people it took to get him down the 1/8th

I think maybe 12 started but there was only about 4 of us that did the whole quarter, and pushed it back to the pits!  Gives me another excuse to flyt to Cali- to see it run under it's own power!

Can't wait to see the Notch out there! I miss the Silver Bugget already! For those of you that don't remember what it looks like, here's my very first pic of it back in 2005 at the VW Panic...

No the chassis was built at AL Shelton's shop in MO.  He had some help from a few guys that worked at bickles.
