I pulled the Marauder out of the garage for the first time since November. Man did that feel good! I spent the winter driving a 1990 GMC 1/2 ton and a Daewoo Nubira (worst car ever made, don't ask). What a change! I forgot how much people want to race you when your in a Marauder. I was driving down interstate 94 in the Sunray area of St. Paul, next thing I know I am racing a G8 down the interstate at 120 MPH! It was fun but the G8 has a little more then the old Marauder!

See you guys around!

The G8 Won , I bet it was modded :eek:

I can't wait to get my MM out of hibernation too.:bigcry:
Winters here are like 8 months then 1 month of potholes & 3 months of constructon,I think there's a summer in there somewhere:eek:
I'll have the MM out in early May after the mods are done
:D

I wish I had a piece of **** car to drive around in during the winter,, So my marauder would be nice and clean for the summer..

I think the G8's are like 360hp. But arn't they Austraillian like the Cateras were? I know the drive train is American but I didn't think the rest of it was. No thanks, I'll stick to my good ol American full framed FOMOCO sedan!

Glad you got her out. Just remember the stock tires are not worth a crap in the snow and cold.

I get around ok on the stock tires. I think I'm a better driver that you though.

Marauder is back in the garage for a few days. I love sliding around in the snow. The old GMC has 4WD but I never use it. It's funner that way.
The stock and original Marauder tires are getting pretty bad. Time for some new ones!
