Got to go for a ride in a blown kenny Brown Marauder!
I work over at Don Comer Ford in P-town on Tuesdays and Thursdays (I'm an adjuster for GEICO). Well the body shop manager Gerorge is really into cars (he has a lincoln Mark VIII that runs high 12's and a Superformance Shelby Cobra Replics!) His buddy has a Marauder that is souped up by Kenney Brown. It has a Vortech with a custom aftercooler setup, flowmasters, full suspension, rims, 14" Baer big brake kit. It also has 4.10 gears and a 3000 stall. Last Friday at VMP they ran a 12.38 @112 in a 4300 lb car.
Anyway I got to go for a ride today and it was super fast. Was too wet to really get on it but George pedaled it and spunt the tires from 0-50 and held it spinning at 50 for a while. The car is a sweet sleeper and is very quiet for all the power.

I never said it felt faster than my car... just super fast. Odd feeling to be accelerating that quickly in a big ass cushy car.
That 12.3 run was on drag radials not street tires. It won't hook and run those kinds of times on street tires.
