More important, "Iron Ass" is Tiger's former Race 72 "Mangia Pane". A very classy looking semi-stock Mustang racer for sure.

Lucky it wasn't one of those South of the Border birds that eat red peppers & flys backwards to keep the rear end cool.

Seems to have the same effect driving a H2 down Stead Blvd.

I guess there are some folks that just can't resist playin' with fire.

Stead Blvd.......I thought this was taken care of on the ramp, or are you wanting to play?

**note to Eric.. need to get you signed up dood!***

Oh yeah just playing

That whole story got so blown up Dan it MAY someday make it into airracing history. The last time I heard it I flipped you the bird during a heat race and we almost duked it out in the pits. Hell we should just stage a fight in 2006 just to not let Tiger have all the fun. Just keep Sparrow at bay. That's a big dude! Notice you never hear me bashing Merlins. Hey I can only laugh about the whole thing now. Haven't used the damn thing since. So now the wife seems to have the last word way too often. I should have just sent her over to smooth things over. Dan would have been like "Nice boobs......................What was I mad about"?

Was Dan ever a Doctor? I was delivered by a Dr. Dan Martin in San Leandro CA in July of 1972..... Just wonder if the same man who brought me into this world almost took me out of it.
