Mercury's on Speed

Anyone catch the program about Mercury's on Speed tonight? Great old race
footage. Even showed the 400 HP MEL engine. According to them only two 427
8V Comets were made.

Re: Mercury's on Speed

A bit of it, I saw a segment about Marauders past. What lovely beasts, I
have always had a soft spot for them. Or was that TiVo replaying
something???

What? I thought Mercury was in retrograde? I'm totally ****ed!

I have never caught a Mercury while on speed. But once I followed my
impatient brother in his Grand Marquis when stoned. "Chill the **** out,
man.. shit, I mean we'll GET there, damn... 'pssshhew... whoooooo' (koff)...
where's my s.... ****in what SONG is this anyway?"

Mercury's on speed? At this rate, it'll crash into the sun for sure! We're
all doomed!

Freddy did many drugs, and it's all old news. So are his buck teeth.

That's all I got fer now; it's late.

Re: Mercury's on Speed

If you did see it the guy driving the 64, 425hp Marauder should learn how to
shift.

Re: Mercury's on Speed

Didn't see the show. At a local car show last year there was a red '64
Marauder with 427 and 4 spd. Nice!

No, that was just ordinary insanity, and I get silly when I'm very tired.
