NOT an Evo, sorry to any who saw this - that was my first impression. It's a Buschur-built Talon.
Still Amazing. -------------------- ... she likes bein' forced ...

Awesome run! You could tell he was happy at the end. Slowing down from 150+ mph with hands clapping instead of on the steering wheel.
  I wouldn't call it Buschur built. Pretty sure Shep does his own work. Some Buschur parts and Buschur-sponsored sure. |

Folks on the machV website are claiming that it was the fastest/quickest race in the hotrod class to date. Pretty damn impressive from two sport compacts. Also props to his opponent for breaking 7s with a sunfire. What the hell was that guy running?

Wow!!! I was betting he would hit the 7's after hearing about the 8.14 run, but I never thought it would happen so soon. AWD chassis like the ones we run here locally putting down 7's!!!
 I watched that vid about 10 times in a row. Got my addrenalyn pumping listening to Shepard go through the gears while watching that FWD dragster pull away from a car running 7.97! -------------------- In Loving memory of David T Crebo
Greatness comes from the most unexpected places!  |
