    That dragster bus is cool; if they actually used those for school pickups, I bet
    there wouldn't be many kids using the excuse, "Mom, I missed the bus !".


    That second video ..... Wow !!! You really should put a "NSFW" label on that one. The excitement of the people in the crowd (both of them) reflects the true extravaganza of witnessing those muscle cars roar down the track !!!! :eek:

    Here's a little video that I found that also captures the excitement the 2nd crowd must have experienced that memorable day:

    It's not a real school bus, in any way shape or form. It's about 2/3rd's scale and custom built from the ground up. The 'bus' look is just a shell. Still cool nonetheless.
    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    Exactly... and you didn't mention that the engine is in the rear and the driver sits about halfway back the chassis. There's little to no weight in the front.
    Ludicrous gibs!
