Yupo talks cheap - every guy in line for the 130 mph club tells
stories of 140 or 150 - course when the actually try it - 95% of em
don't make it. You loose 10 % to the traction problems on the salt -
and the difference between 120 and 130 is huge - wind resistance and
such - but you loose most of your speed due to the liars factor -
turns out it's alot easier to tell stories about how fast your car is -
than to actually reach those speeds - hope this isn't sounding
familiar Darrel.

Been there - done that - and have the certificates and the
documentation to prove it
