Re: increasing horsepower with a resistor
I listen the talk show host Art Bell, one night years ago read the
story as if he was there watching the brake drums and tires explode as
the Chevy becomes airborne and smashes into a cliff. I think we where
all laughing as if this might be a good way to go out.
