A hacker tried to buy a dumptruck using my name, so it was recommended that I remove my name from the web. everyone kept typing in my name, so it's a thingy to keep it off, not sure how it works. Did you get the cross bar to go on your yellow truck? If not I can get one...

The yellow Malibu went 6.11 in the final against the black Chevelle ( Thomas AKA buety and the beast ) . The Malibu was peddling . I covered the bu' out the hole when thew plugs fouled . He ran a 6.38 and would have lost to me . The Chevelle is a ladder bar car coverted back . I think the floor pan is illegal . I am gonna try and crack there asses with my 355 , but i need motor . Remember you have to weigh 3200#s . That is hard to do and still keep the truck light for the real world . I am out gunned right now , they just don't know it cause i ain't scared of them . 2 want me on the scales .

from what i hear there just trying ti get some cars in the show right now that's why the chevelle is most likely running, CRACK THAT ASS and keep um guessing that's the way to keep them on the ropes.the 3200 is gonna hurt but the pep juice might ought to help on that somewhat, are you running a window switch on the nos set up or spraying thur your shifts? got the electrical bug figured out so i ought to be out testing soon......hopefully, it would suck to get it ready and not have any money to go racing on....LOL....NOT! keep representing the luv's like you do and maybe i can come out and help stir it up a little.
