   Great! Kudos to Dom for building it and congrats to El Caz for being the proud new owner.
RIP John. While on vacation July 4th 2013 in northern Wisconsin, he was ATVing with family and pulled ahead of everyone and took off at break-neck speed without a helmet. He lost control.....hit a tree....and the tree won.  He died instantly.

The one thing that you can almost always rely on research leading to, is more research.

Yo Popi!
Better late than never. This beauty inspired me to create the "Rambo Doll Award"; the one that separates the men with breechblocks from the boys with muzzle cannon.  Cute-shmute. I like something with guts!  Brooklyn Rules! 8)
