you're thinking of the movie \"radio\".

rudy was a football movie about a 5 foot nothing, 130lb nothing kid who wanted to play pro football. sean austin starred as the lead, i think.

good job h. diddy.

i, for one, cant wait to see you kick the s#!t out of that thing at the track. i'll safely say that a low 14 will be followed by a high then mid 13 and hopefully by august, a mid to high 12.

keep up the good work shane.

Looking nice! Just so everyone knows, when you instal the \"Drag Bar\" The down bars have a notch in each side of the tube this should be towards the bottom so you can put a 19mm wrench onto it to ease tightening bolts and pre loading frame horn. Just thought i better point that out.
Looks Nice! :D
