No one ever suspects the wagon.

anyone else's?

Those Delorians were slow as hell. Think about it, they were made from 304 Stainless and only had a 2.8 with 130HP in them. Even the brake stand they have in the begining of part one needs wet pavement to work. Although, you could polish them with steel wool!!
It's my first day.

i hear the ones they swap with the caddy v8's have some giddup, ive heard a lot of different strange engines going in them.
btw, i only had 101 horses in my cutlass, and i didnt need wet pavement to spin the tires. that was a heavy car.

I love that car, ultimate sleeper. In the 'Kill Stories' section he posts about racing a MKIV and a RX-7 TT.
