Read the write up on \"Jimmy Car\"  Six-a-go-go. Page two.
And there's a beetle in the lanes (tech or staging?) on page three.  


It's an insane world out there... and I'm proud to be part of it!

Jim grant is still doing alright he just started doing bonniville his first try got him just a few mph of off getting a world record in some flathead rodster class. Not bad for a * canadian*.












If you don't get the highlight the canadian was the car name for Jim grant and still is
