Pictures don't do it justice. If you guys saw Pheonix's car in person then you'd want to vote twice for him. That car rocks!

I think the reason why Pheonix has taken this poll easily is cause his car is more visually appealing with all those mods. now if it was a power poll then it'd be vice-versa.

agreed, turbonator could probably pull a spark plug wire and still beat me by a few seconds in the quarter.

Personally, Phoenix took some nice pictures, but turbonator is backing the weight of his car up with those mods. Man, I wish I had the kind of money to refresh my engine too. ;(

Hey turbonator? What do you do?
