Most of the Jap Companies had something that could be considered pretty fast during the mid-90's, and would still hold there own against a lot of stuff today.

My 1994 Rx7 runs a sub 5 second 0-60 time and a 13.x quarter mile time from the factory - not bad for 15years ago.

Twin Turbo 300ZX
Twin Turbo Supra
Twin Turbo 3000GT VR-4

All were pretty decent contenders in the 1990's.

Well, it just so happens, that my Prototype Cig/Fountain paint job, was a waste of my time. Apparently, someone beat me to it. Sommerfliesby called me and told me he saw this while at the marina today. I had to get in the car and come down and see it for myself. Who woulda known, right in our own marina. FUK ME.

On a positive note, I got a ride on an Active Thunder. I was able to experience the homosexual bolster, 80MPH thru 10FT'ers in 60 deg air temps, AND make a bag of popcorn. As you can see, we are both happy. Theres just something about the homo bolster that makes you smile. Boat rocks Mike!

Yeah, yesterday was a good day.

Never mind the cold and 10 footers...but upon arriving at the marina and idling out, I happened upon the very thing that was so fervently discussed in these hallowed pages. I simply could NOT believe my eyes. It was like seeing the unicorn of performance boating. I had to immediately call Joe. Its nice to share the level of appreciation we have for these things amongst friends.

Oh...then I helped Mr. Cig with his dinghy.

We Active Thunder people are very giving.
