.
. . and we did it together." - Peter
Howe
Or,
maybe Pete has just joined
an
exclusive club?
What
a great subject line for the email
that we received from Peter Howe, long-time
customer and PT owner since the PT
Cruiser first came out. We
helped Pete with his first 'Cruiser,
see it here.
His
latest, a PT Turbo model, has the
Stage One Turbo upgrade,
plus a lot of Go-Fast Goodies he
sourced from PT-Tuning.
How good did he do? Check this out!
Yesterday,
April 5th, 2006, ol' Pete takes his
newest ride to the Gulfport,
Miss. Dragway, races a Mustang GT —
and wins! What makes this even
more special is shown on his time
sheet: 100.22 MPH
as he blows through the 1/4 mile trap in the low 14's!
Yeow!!!
That's one scorchin' HOT
PT Criuser! 
In Pete's own words:
"Thanks to
PT Tuning I have
realized a dream
of taking my PT down
the quarter mile
at just over 100
MPH. I have
the MOPAR Stage 1 turbo upgrade,
Air
Force One cold air intake, BTG
dual cat-back exhaust and
many more items too numerous to mention
from PT Tuning, thanks
for making this happen
for me Maier. You and your gang
have been making my PT dreams
come true for 5 years. [PT
owners] Do not despair, "PT Tuning" is
there to make your PT run like a
scalded dog or just look it's best."
As you can see, Pete has indeed
been a busy boy! And his PT looks
great — and the "run like a
scalded dog"
part is not just an ol' southern expression.
This PT Rocks!
Pete continues, "I was
the brunt of several jokes by the announcer
that night but when I smoked the
tires
warming up and outran a Mustang GT all he could say was, "Holy
S*** do you just see that! I would have
never
bet on
a PT winning heads up against a Mustang."
Our bets will
always be on you,
Pete!
Thanks for sharing
with us. If you would like to make your PT
look and run as special as this jewel
from Pete Howe, give us a call. We
specialize in a personal approach, and will
work hard to help you make your PT the 'Cruiser
of your dreams!
The
First 100MPH PT?
Uhhh, hmmmmm . .
. Since this story was posted
we've received several "excited"
emails to let us know that Pete's
PT might be the first 100+MPH PT
timed at Gulfport Dragway,
but according to the PT
Cruiser Fastest Times List he's
got a bit of company!
Congrats to
all in the 100MPH club --
may your N2O flow freely and your
PTs always be screamin'! |
