It is a photo of the lead singer for the band Tool during a recent concert. Don't let the cowboy hat fool you, they don't sing country.

Ah - gotcha. My eyes must be bad. I don't see a cowboy hat. But I do see a big, ummm, yellow banana-like thingy?

I am due for my first set of bifocals on the next eye doc visit...

It was a GTP with a modified blower.... when it ran by itself you could hear the blower all the way down the track. But in this vid, you pretty much can only hear my exhaust LOL!

He was certainly behind you, but looks like he somewhat kept up... Sort of surprised me. He must have been pushing it to the limit.

I prefer to run my own meat, thank you......

As far as tires go, 18" DD bullitts up front (HEAVY) and 17" bald BFG 275/40 DRs out back. The combo of old rear tires and that size with my 4.10 gears is why I'm already in 3rd gear by the time the other car is hitting 2nd. Until I get taller tires, I almost think I'd be better off launching in 2nd gear, that's what I usually do on the street.

Gee!Tom, as stating you prefer to run your own meat, are you implying that you have ran someone Else's meat before?.......or your willing! but you just prefer your own ....or maybe it just depends on who is willing to let you run their meat! As far as tires go! your right, if your going get serious about track rattin' it, your going to have to set up like the big boy's do. So your launch was a little limp! you still straitened it out and pounded it hard at the end.......
