Default Clarksville speedway

So I was at the Clarksville Speedway one night and to my surprise there was a 740 at the starting line getting ready to face off in a drag race against a 350Z. everyone pretty much started laughing and pointing. However, the ridiculing stopped the moment that 740 took off and finished the quarter mile AT LEAST 4 cars ahead of the Z.
anyways, dude ifyou are a memeber on this forum, i just wanna let you know that you gave me whole new perspective on what a volvo can is really capable of! oh and of course that Z you RAPED has a new respect for you as well. haha!

LOL the white one is the one I think is still For Sale.

I saw it run the 1/8 mile not that long ago. He had slicks on it and was running against toyota starlets with built RX7 motors and beating them.
