Cant say I'm surprised, Lee is crazy! He used to be the only show in town around here, as far as TR's go. Hell, he built the motor thats in my car now, really know his stuff. The mustang he had before the vette was no slouch either. Crazy stuff, and great video

AS FAR AS TURBOCHARGING A CAR, A TRACTOR, OR A SCOOTER, LEE HOWIE IS "DA MAN". HE IS KNOWN AROUND THESE PARTS FOR HIS TWIN TURBO GN.. WHICH HE DROVE DOWN SOUTH FOR A RACE. HIS LATE, GREAT FRIEND, STERLING MCCULARS HAD A BAD HEART AND ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE THE TWIN BEAST AND HAD TO ABORT ON LAUNCH, HIS POOR HEART COULD NOT TAKE IT . STERLING HAD A HOWIE INFLUENCED STOCK GN WITH STOCK TURBO AND A 3 STAGE MECHANICAL FUEL SYSTEM. THIS CAR WAS KNOWN TO RUN 6.80 IN THE 1/8. LEE HOWIE COULD MAKE A YUGO OUT RUN A FERRARI.....

I've seen that car quite a few times in person.

His Mustang was cooler.

Me and Bubba were talking to him the last time he came down, and I believe he did say that was Randy Eakins old car.

Hey Joe Dirt, I've been trying to call ya...

Yes, it was Randy's Car. He now runs a Turbo Pro-Mustang at the NMRA events.

Good to see Lee Howie doing well with his new ride.
