Default Import Drag Racing

Hey guys...

For all of you import drag racing fans-I just wanted to ask if you had heard anything about Tony Fuchs lately. He's back this season, driving Myles Bautista's 'Teg (he's teamed up with Myles and Lisa Kubo). The season's about to start, and I just wanted to see if anyone had heard anything.

for those who don't know who Tony Fuchs is, he's one of the forefathers of import drag racing. He used to drive a white/yellow/blue 'Teg in the early 90's with a superman symbol on the hood. If you do remember Tony, send me a shout out...I'd like to make his return back to the scene with a real bang! Thanks guys...

Yeah, he did switch to Mustangs. Kinda surpised he's back. Last I heard, he was lookin to build a fast Ford, then move on to bigger (and more expensive) things. As of then (about 6 months ago), he was looking to start building a Porshe, or an NSX. Glad to have him back, though.

Yeah Tony's cool. He used to have the fastest Integra in the world, not to mention it was a 2G!! That thing was sweet.
Glad to see him back!!

Last race I have on tape is of Tony racing one of his customer's rides (a blue hatchback-he blew a head gasket at the race). He was working on a 99 'teg that he was going to race. Tony was fully sponsored by JG Lightspeed a while ago, but they sort of screwed him over. Lisa, Myles, and Tony teamed up together and Myles hired Tony for this season to race his car (to get him back in the scene and score some payback against JG). Tony didn't have any plans on racing a Porsche or Mustang (as far as I know). We're planning on having the 'teg (Myles' teg, that is) pump out 650 hp with a dual shot nitrous...we'll see what happens with that dual shot. Please rally up any of the old Tony Fuchs fans...it'll be really helpful to know that we're glad to see him back on the track. Thanks for the support, and if you need installs/mods done in So. Cal, please don't hesitate to give Tony a call. Just email me for the number.
