    Why is everyone so quick to jump on the :bs: wagon? I swear since the internet everyone thinks everyone is lying. I am always of the "wait and see" group. I look forward to everything being presented then making a judgement based on that. :tiphat:

    Gas/ Electric Drag Racer? how fast do those go? Saw a show about that one time, but I don't think times were that low.

    I think you are the closest. He put a "weedeatersworth" of Gas in a Maverick and put two D cell bateries in the dash tray (hence the hybrid coment) and pushed it off a cliff from a quarter mile up and it hit the bottom in 5.5 seconds. LOL

    But seriously I am interested in his story if he would ever quit acting like my 10 year old kid and spit it out....

    I've seen molasses go uphill in January faster that the time it takes him to tell a story, hahaha

    Actually, Some people have already gone away for the weekend and wouldnt be able to check your thread until Monday or Tuesday. It really wouldnt be fair to them if you shared this awesome feat before then. Come to think of it, many Maverick/comet owners arent members at this site. You should definitely wait until every Maverick/Comet owner joins and is online and paying attention. This is imortant news we all need to hear, and nobody should be left out.
