Re: IML: soooo fast

["D. Howland" <howlands@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I LOVE this thread. I would really like to see/hear how fast a stock bodied 
Imperial, regardless of modifications underneath, can go. I'm guessing about 
165 before it either literally or figuratively hits a wall.

On a side note, I just read that Art Arfons died last week. I always thought 
those green monsters were the coolest backyard projects ever.
