    I bet it sounds awesome!

    I had some knockoffs when flowmaster let their design patent out. They were basically the same thing just half the price. I kept getting pulled over so I had to find some random place that would take cash to fix my exhaust. Otherwise I'd had to put on catalytic converts....

    I had a 1 ton 4x4 Chevy truck that I would take to the drags. It just pissed people off when a 4x4 would blow away there street car. Big motor, low gears, and an eye for the light. Was lots of fun until the motor blew up.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    I love drag racing, but I'm in on the Japanese side of things. Turbos and light little v6s and 4 bangers. Current beater for the 1/4 is a Z31 300zx. It's in its infancy though, not ready to run much more than a lame 13 at the moment. Still setting up my engine management and fuel system so I can feed it more air. Good engine to build on at least, the little 3.0 is holding 653hp in my buddy's 300zx with nothing but fuel mods done to it.

    I'm a bit surprised there aren't more folks in here.

    Summit Racing's main store in Akron (Tallmadge) is 6 miles from my house. My sister in law and a friend of mine works there. I have restored several cars over the years with parts I have bought there including my 17 Tacoma and 65 Ford Galaxie 500. I used to shop there when it used to be on Kennedy Road in a building not much bigger than a Autozone. I'm amazed at how big they have grown.
    If you are passing through Akron it is located along the side of I-76 just east of town. It is definitely worth making the stop to see. The show room is awesome and so are all the cars on display including the ones suspended from the ceiling. They do so much in our area sponsoring drag racing and car shows.

    That's pretty cool. I live about an hour and 15 minutes from Akron and I'm planning on getting most of my ARB products through Summit.
