Default Re: Have i created a monster

I bought my grandson David, Chris's (Drooze) oldest boy, a Jr Dragster a couple of years ago when he was 12.

He is the poster child for ADD, so we didnt have great hopes about winning a lot, we just wanted to see him have some fun.

After the first time down the track, when he almost ran over Chris, and just missed hitting him with the wing, he got the bug.

After that first time, every other time he got into the car, he was locked in, and cut some awesome lights.

He was perfectly happy with the car, winning some, losing a lot more to faster cars, until he got beat by a 13 year old girl...

And that is when we had to get a new Blockzilla, new clutch, up the cam, and give him some more steam.

He outgrew it, and it is now off to a new home...

So now he reminds me that he is only a year and a half from getting a driver's license, so who knows what he will driving in the future...

It is a great sport, and good for for the whole family.
