Bit vs. Thunder Racer
 
Hello all,

I would just like to report that I took my Supra to the Southern Hills Mall in Sioux City Iowa, and I stumbled upon a man selling Thunder Racers for $30 a piece. I asked him if he would care to race and he accepted my challenge. In 5 minutes we had quite a crowd gathered and had the ground rules layed down. On 3 we both did a 10 foot drag and I'm happy to say that I took him to school. He didn't stand a chance against the whir of my 3.0 motor (bwahahahaha:cool: ).

If anyone lives in the Sioux City Iowa region, we plan to hold races in the mall every so often, so keep your eyes out for flyers.

Faithful to Bits,
Yaksha
:cool:

About 2 weekends ago I was at a local fair and found about 5 booths selling Bullet & Thunder clones. I stopped by each to check the prices and they ranged from $15-$20.

One lady even proceeded to tell me her Bullets are the original cars all others are just rip offs. I thought that was pretty funny, she asked what cars I had and told here (Bit Char-G by Tomy). She had no clue as to what I was talking about... Too funny!

I was ready to scoop up a bunch of them if I wasn't with my fiance and her girlfriends... :rolleyes:
