Triple Nickle?
I can see the image, nice car, I knew a guy that had an ugly brown Pontiac Formula 400. Dog ugly car (white leather interior too), but man did it go.
Habu, yes, there's an upstairs to Autobacs that has books, mags (mostly Japanese), DVD/VHS (they have the 2003 JGTC video, I almost got it) helmets and fire suits, diecast cars, R/C cars and Tamiya kits. The had the 2001 WRC Impreza WRX, Focus Performance Blue and the Lancer Evo VII, the Mobil 1 JGTC NSX, the Pennzoil and Zexel Skylines, some bikes, street cars and the Enzo. The prices are about the same as most hobby stores. The Mobil 1 car is actually a couple of bucks cheaper than I've seen it anywhere else, I almost got it too. That's what I remember at least. |

I saw the Autocourse Rally 2002 book (already have it, and you do too probably). I really didn't look at the mags cause they were mostly Japanese. Yes, Subaru 555, I totally forgot . They don't always run that logo though cause of the tobacco restrictions and stuff, so I just didn't think of it. All the Viperaholics would have got the Triple Nickel thing though. . . |

| Quarter times are highly overrated...they say little about the car's overall performance. |
