Please,please Ben
Keep dreaming because i must know what "converted" engine propels your 87GL to
such velocities. Not even HP choppers can dream of catching you...What about
fuel mileage at 154 mph cruising speed?
How do you get dreams like that? Do you use "Absolut" or other imported
relaxant...?
Sweat dreams!
