    Just saw that the Dodge Challenger will have a 707 hp engine available. Sounds like fun! :burnrubber:
    It comes with 2 keys, one only allows it to produce 500 hp., the other turns on the full potential. I know which one I would keep if I had to share. :rolleyes:
    I bet she would never know!!!!! :D
    HI SUE!!! :wave:

    Evening Ken:
    Saw the article on CNN Money; same info. as the link you posted.
    I have a feeling that the 1000 hp. mustang, that Ford was planning to produce, may be available in the near future. :woot:

    Cloudy, hot and humid here, looks like storms are going through North of us.

    1000 hp on the street is madness, madness I tell you! Where do I sign up for one?

    Humidity is starting to break here, in the form of thunderstorms. Power has gone off and back on 3 times so far. If it does it again I'm firing up the generator and to hell with the power company. After all, we're trying to watch Wimbledon. (Gotta get a battery backup on the DVR, it goes utterly nuts when it has to reboot.)

    I got the bike rack assembled and installed in the bed of the truck. It's clever but just a wee tad less stable than I'd like. It may need some, errr, personal enhancements, to make it just right. I'll post up pics in whatever bike rack thread there is around here, when the rain stops.

    Stormwise, my weather guy is telling me it's soon-to-be Hurricane Arthur, and he's betting it stays Category 1 and moves offshore somewhere around Hatteras. I hope he's right.
