Cool...yet awfully dramatic for an 11.47 pass.... LOL!

[Fryguy]

That video was actually taken at a track rental we did in 2000. There were only 6 cars there, and that guy is a street racers known as "crazy moe". If you guys saw the America's Most Wanted show about the street racer who was wanted because of a death during a street race, that was the guy.

Anyhow, that's why the times weren't shown, but it was running mid 9's that day.

[red95gts]

It looked a hell of a lot faster than 11.47....thought it was just the way it looked on the vid tho...

[Blue91]

I remember his name and you guys talking about him. That's been around for a long time, haha.

There's another recording from a different angle as I recall. (No, I couldn't find it :()

There is, I'll try to find it. All angles were taped on Corey's camera, and the car did that EVERY time he sprayed it. On one pass, Corey was leaning over the guardrail to get it from the front. Kinda funny how that video is all over the world now. The track is Stanton (Mid. Mich. Motorplex).

The other vids might be on Corey's site at www.slugbitchracing.com

I know who Crazy Moe Atat is. I didn't know that video was of his car!

[Otis!]

Raj,

Did he own, or drive 'Barney' (Switzer's old purple Cobra)? That's the unit Larry and Tyro picked up up there, FWIW, some years ago...

O!

That'd be it. :eek:

[nintylx]

I think that was the car he ran the chick over with prior to Larry buying his purple car to help finance his exit from the states.

That was not the car, and also, he didn't run over the hooker, he was driving the OTHER car that did NOT crash. The car he was racing against broke an axle turned and ran over a hooker. Granted the guy was no angel, but America's Most Wanted had to really be low on bad guys that year.

Yep.

[nintylx]

I kinda miss the purple car after cutting the roof off totally redoing.... Yea everything wish it could of made a few more passes!!!! :( And the trip to get the damn thing will be a memory to never forget! :blue: Did I mention the Pizza in Detroit Sux's!!!!!!

Speaking of Crazy Moe I just found this on DRO!!!


Emirates Motorplex in Sharjah, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, played host to two American race cars on Nov. 10. In Outlaw 10.5 action Khalid Althani's Al Anabi Qatar racing team and driver Mustafa El Atat laid down some of the quickest 10.5 passes outside the U.S. Atat ran 6.91 in qualifying and posted a 6.83 and a race-winning 6.88 in the final round with their twin turbocharged 350Z which they purchased from Xtreme Race Cars owners Carl Stevens, Sr. and Jr. The father and son team were on hand as well as Shane Tecklenburg tuning the MoTeC Engine Management system.

Well, it's confirmed where he is now

and *POW* http://www.amw.com/fugitives/brief.cfm?id=25656

[HoustonLX]

So a "World Wide Man Hunt" is on and the authorities still can't find him. However, the racing world can. LOL!

[Saleen91]

pretty crazy huh?

It kinda reminds me of the Junior Ibanez (sp?) incident several years back.

[Wild Stallion]

what is the scoop on Jr? I enjoyed following him back in the late 90s, but he disappeared, what happened?

[Saleen91]

He got deported because he was in the states illegal... or the other rumor is that he was a "wanted" man in another country for some illegal activities. Either way, if you're wanted by another country, don't get yourself plastered in national magazines!
