I remember that issue. It was my first . Had plenty of cars that ended up in articles about various shows like Spring Breaks and Finals but that was my first 'full feature'. And they screwed it up royally. I don't remember how many calls from the writer with questions on the story and exactly how this was done and that was done. Then when it came out it was like they made up there own story anyway. They got the particulars about install right for the most part but the sequence of events was totally wrong. I guess it wasn't exciting enough and they had to embelish a little.
Another interesting fact .. That car won IASCA and USAC finals that year using XS series amps and Zeropoint speakers.
