marauder kill

I was impressed with the marauder. Driving down a 4 lane today a marauder comes up from behind me. Our first was from about 50. not a good speed for the 5AT. pulled on him in vtec. second was at a light. i had him by about 2 cars midway through second and shut it down. we talked for a couple of minutes he was impressed with the cl and i was impressed with the marauder. Pretty quick i though for as heavy as they look.

yep. second and third gears are the optimal gears for our tuna boat. and 50 mph is when 2nd pulls the hardest since in vtec.

mike, i think you should go to the meet. we've gotta hang out some day. and i bet Niteqwill is going to show with the first RonJon CL kit.

60 about sounds about right. if you started off in 3rd ~60 that's pretty impressive.
