    Here's a video I shot last fall after Ken's record breaking run on gas. The sound quality isn't that good on my phone and you can't feel the hair rising up on the back of your neck. :eek:

    Ken rules! I missed this thread somehow and just found out at TyRods today. Hopefully we'll be able to see the car at the Alter Boys show.

    Ken's obviously working to get the car ready for Fitchburg tomorrow. I believe it will be there if anyone would like to see it in real life.
