Challenger II Making Thunder
« on: July 13, 2014, 09:18:33 PM »
This was the first pass made by Danny Thompson in the Challenger II during the USFRA Test and Tune.  While the audio and video do not do it justice, it felt like an earthquake, tornado and freight train all rolled together in a sleek blue package.  It sent shivers done my spine as it rolled past the starting line!!!

The video's good and the write up is excellent!  :-D :-D :-D

I wish Danny all the success. Mickey's exploits on the salt were legend when I was just starting out working on race cars.
