Here is our coverage from the New England NDRA demo. This is the event that I crashed my car at :D That's Dan driving the blue SC300. His tranny broke this weekend and I crahed my car during practice. Dan was able to fix it. I broke all of my suspension and bent my steering rack. We found a local salvage yard where Dan found all the parts......bad weekend for us, but we made it thru :) Enjoy!

The owner has been pretty greedy about letting anyone drive it (I totally understand why tho). It's the announcers, Ernie cffrom NOS enery drinks. Since Dan's tranny broke and it was the last demo before the nats...he decided to let Dan drive it. I was really amazed. It was so cool of him!

bet dan had a blast trying out something different. from the pics it looks like he was pretty good behind the wheel of a SC300-400.

He also got to drift a Solstice in New Jersey that NOS let him drive, too.

It had a turbo kit but stock suspension. So it was a little wierd.

If thats the same Soarer tha MA Motorsports built I'm glad it getting some track use. Sucks to see a car like that just sit in a booth.
