I think you should post the picture with the V6 guy in the background.
Those blotles are Root Beer.

Nope. Wrong. He was disengaging the gravity G force magnets and Nitrous bottle.

That car is just easy to drive fast. Before we started I ran it through the course to get a baseline time and didn't push it at all, but still turned a 59. That turned out to be just 5 seconds off the lead time without even squealing a tire. Have to give Carl credit, he knows what he's doing. I don't think there was any nitrous, but the magnets? Well, maybe....
