A 911 is King of The Streets!

Today, Eddie Bello, who I believe frequents PP took the "King of The Streets" title at the Texas Invitational.

What I've dug up through "social media" he took overall for the 6-spd class beating an UnderGround Racing TT Lambo...

Great to see an air-cooled take the title from the newest, fastest, highest tech go fast stuff $$ can buy.

DAS 911

This is drag racing, for those unfamiliar with Mr. Bello.

I'd never heard of him before but I found this interesting article by way of "deep background". From 1999 but gives an idea of what the guy's about:

Building The Perfect Porsche - Eddie Bello - Super Street Magazine

He had some subsequent legal problems but these are also well documented on the Web.

Cheers

169 MPH and he was out of the gas to control the beast.



Look at the solo run at 1:25 if it doesn't start there.
