lol.. well i think going 200mph is way more involved that some 1/4 time or something. Every little detail counts ...



thats my goal .. but it still has to be a street car.
But just think about it.. a big fat 200mph speeding ticket.. or one badass street ripping FC..

lol.. you dont know what i do for a living...





as for the ticket thing, in the mischief 3000 video a dude in an f50 gets caught doing 180+ in a 55. He went to jail, fo sheezy..



As for me, i would probably take it to a track ... perhaps the salt flats, or nevada.. This just gives me something to reach towards, and its a pretty unique goal. Not too many people set a 200mph mark for there car.

So, what do you do for a living? I'm very very open to donations. Would you like my address? So you can go ahead and send me my check? Or do you prefer paypal?
