Who remembers...

The thread where that little asian teenager was trying to get someone to race him for like $10,000.


Wasn't his name edward leong or something?

I was just trying to find the original thread and couldn't find it.

It was funny as hell. Remember, he was also a world class pool player?...running more balls in a row than Willie Mosconi ever did...
HOOT!

Sounds like the Patriot Act is running out of things to do. Isn't this a little off content?

Quite possibly the funniest thing in the history of the internet, too bad that some of the best (worst) photos got removed. A couple that survived:

If I remember correctly some of the guys did a web page search of his name and came up with a photo of him with his little jr high friends on some site.

Too funny!

The other one I was thinking of the other day was that bad ass pic Jack posted of himself, Mike and Tyson at sunset. It was the TV ad photo.


Those were the good old days.

You mean "dial 911", or something like that?

Not to hijack your thread, but i have a related oddball question.

I've been trying to find the thread where some kid is trying to make his honda or something go faster in order to beat his friend with a Supra. These two guys created an article where they systematically pulled everything off the car, cut off the roof, stripped it down to nothing and post progressive 1/4 mile times. It's pretty hilarious, yet lost.

Any ideas?

Not Lost, a Google search found it in Sport Compact Magazine.

That was great reading. Shouldn't Wayne create a "Classic Threads" topic where all this stuff could be archived? This could go along with the "I'm getting a free 911" thread.
