[hr]Laugh if you want, but retired auto-shop teacher Richard Thompson and his crew set four records with their '90 Geo Metro. Those are blown records. Why would anyone put a blower on a Geo? Well, last year they set another four records with it naturally aspirated. The blower was the only thing to do without having to run against their own records all week. With a best record average of 144.505mph, the Metro got four different drivers in the record book, did it with a $300 race motor, and scored style bonus points for having the world's first ballistic nylon blower blanket made for the three cylinder Geo motor.[hr]
Imagine gettin ur a$$ kicked by a metro [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] even though it owns most of us

Wouldn't the blower weigh more than the Geo, causing it fall over??? And you thought only SUVs had a major safety issue with toppling over. Think again... [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
