ya, there was one time there were a bunch of people here, and i fired the nova up and people scattered. I swear it was people from here too…

Donovan do do boats, but this was originally some dirt/outlaw motor that’s been gone over. Plus this is jsut a widdle street motor, not some 1100hp drag motor :kekegay:
