Pumpkin


Beauty and the Beast. Or, vice-versa. The parking spot behind the pumpkin colored skateboard Gremlin X is occupied by a 2003 model Maserati Gransport GT styled V8 at a Halloween bonfire this week-end. Life imitates art. And vice-versa.

Boris Karloff's daughter said on NPR that nobody ever came trick-or-treating at their house. Nobody.

That's a good looking old Gremlin. I like the old school wheels.

It's a very sweet (as far as a sweet Gremlin X goes!) and a very strong Gremlin. A literal freaking skateboard with 350 ponies. Yikes!

I've had a couple of rides in it that ended none too soon for me......

Those are the kinds of parties I like to go to. One where you have the whole spectrum represented: from a Gremlin to a Maserati!

The Yankee didn't seem vague to me, but I was never a competition quality rider: it was heavy, but not overwhelmingly so compared to the 250s of the day (most around 235 to 260 pounds, if memory serves).

For true heaviness, see if you can find out anything about the 500cc BMWs that ran in the '72 ISDT in Mass.! Every rider was over 6' and built like a weightlifter. They needed to be.
