That's what I was wondering. If he can run a 12.5 while feathering the throttle to keep the front end down, you know he could run faster with some bars on the rear.

Honestly, I'd drive that blown Smart car, just to mess with Mustangs, Camaros, Hondas and Porsches around...

That was smart, saved a deer while using less gas, and saving the earth together, also....bad drivers need to be gone

Seriously, that look horrible. How are these things passing the safety tests ?
