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 ).

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

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...
