Hey Im Zach. Im 21 and attend college. Ive always been interested in road rallys and such since I was old enough to watch cannon ball run. I figure being a poor college student this would be my only chance to get into something as cool as this for some time.

Im a big mopar fan and love mr angry and team dart.   This year at the mopar nationals I got a chance to check out bill goldbergs a990 65 hemi coronet clone. Pretty cool because I guess he did alot of the work himself because he wanted to be invloved.

I build all my own stuff like all of you and enjoy doing it. Id rather build it than buy it.

I dont want to hurt any of my older cars so I chose the dak to drive because its pretty peppy and handles beautifully for a truck, and its tough as nails. When they came out they beat the skid pad numbers of the then z28 camaros and mustang gt's.

Anywho, Im going to get some more pictures up when the weather gets nicer. I lost all the pictures of the dakota on a crashed computer so I have to take more put ill be throwin up more of the porsche and the satellite soon. Ill also throw up some of my brothers 72 dart project car, my dads 70 cuda and his 69 coronet r/t. I also own shelby csx-t #542 for those of you farmiliar with the shelby dodge cars.

I think it would be interesting to see a truck that was actually built to handle on this show instead of 4wd's.(nothing wrong with the big trucks just something different in the truck venue).

Just introducing myself to all you Bullshtt....... I mean bullrunners hahha.

"There were no cops, no trees, no humans of any kind so we decided to wring out the little Ford. For 47 minutes straight the Fusion was pinned at 111 mph with the A/C on getting 25mpg. John, Gabe and I all sat there astonished. We made one fuel stop, saw no other Bullrunners and came in... are you ready... 6th place for the day! IN A RENTED FORD FUSION!! CAN I GET A BOOYA!!!

Ford people, if you are reading this contact me immediately because I don't think you know how good this little car is. Seriously, we should talk about perhaps producing some Ford Fusion "MR. ANGRY" editions. I LOVE THIS CAR!"

Ja-ja! Most quit. Especially when they find out their car can be significantly damaged or destroyed, and insurance won't cover them.

Yea from what I understood the crank walk was a prob in that body style but with the older motor it was all good. It was an auto and if you launched it at 15lbs on the foot break it would break all 4's loose a little bit id say it woulda ran middle high 14's
