Today I caught on to a discussion in the Waterfest 08 thread talking about the drag racing action from this past weekend.
In the thread and in his blog post, GT R4C3R mentioned that he was fairly unimpressed with the drag racing portion of Waterfest. What he failed to mention was that the fastest car of [...]
