Fuck he can drive like a mofo.

That is awesome. He is going to have to change his plates again.

I love it how him and Rau are always a second apart. When someone bitches that Rau's car isnt even a DSM anymore cause of the rear drive you can just mention Shep and put them in their place.

He changed the plate, and a whole lot more.

He is one guy I would like to meet sometime...

Swifty1638 · 09-19-2006

After seeing him a few times at the shootout, and NOPI last year, I can say I honestly feel bad for the guy. He is constantly innindated with people like us asking questions, and other things. Cornered against his trailer and getting talked at. Unlike rau, he just takes it, and is quite passive about everything. I can understand where rau comes from on the matter. As he told me n cher, "I don't have time to stand around, and have someone ask me if that's a fucking 16g I have on the damn car! I am sure they are nice people, but what most don't get is that this is my life. this is my job, and I really need to concentrate on that. Feeding my family depends on how I perform". John's just a calmer, nicer version. If you ever get the chance, say hi to him atleast. Who knows, perhaps you'll get a shirt from him too!

I love it how Shep always has an incamera car, i wish brent would do that and post it up. Shep seems like a great guy.
I understand where brent is coming from by saying that, everything he said was true, it comes with the territory of being the fastest dsm in the world.
Its funny because in the pic that vicious posted its like the typical dsm, leaking fluid of some sort no matter how fast and built it is.
I love how on sheps site hes not afraid to post exactly what he has, brent would never give out that info. at least that I have seen.

There is too much swearing in Brent's incar videos.

LMFAO!!! Classic quote.

1slowdsm · 09-20-2006

That's fast! Was he on spray at all or was it all turbo? I remember a few years ago he had that Talon running 9's and it was streetable. They had him featured in a magazine. That's the first time I heard of him

.

Swifty1638 · 09-20-2006

I have an in-car vid of brent last year, when he ran the 7.13. I just don't have a place to host it.

Ha, that's what you think. He doesn't even run the clutch from his main sponsor. He's pretty straight forward about what's in the car, but he keeps a LOT of info to himself, and rightly so.

92EvilTalon · 09-20-2006

I meet both Brent and John. Both guys are great people. But its true John will talk to you. Brent will talk but eh...wont talk much.

niterydr · 09-20-2006

I've never had issues with Brent. John is a nice guy, I talk to him about once a week, Brent will hold a conversation with you but can not stand dumb questions.

Swifty1638 · 09-20-2006

Steve, are you sure that clutch info is public knowledge? I don't ever remember him posting it on a public site anywhere, or his site. I know his sponsors know that, but I didn't think many people could know.
