Where I work fast cars and boats are a common-place. The President of the company at 65 has a high 9-second Harley and a road king that is pulling mid 11's. Coupla old engine builders, like George Vellios who built Porsche Engines back in the day for the Le Mans cars. Steve Ryle used to run with the fuelers back in his day and was actually one of the few to break 100 in a jet boat back in the late 60's.
Just about everyone else has a fast chevelle and one guy's got a 528 Hemi in an ugly ass little purple Dodge.
Chief and I seem to have it pretty good in that way. The new push around here is the Diesel's. They're all trying to beat eachother with their diesels. I think the fastest one is in the low 12's.
