Event Coverage RYAN's 3" eyes??????

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Beep, Aug 23, 2009.

  1. Anyone get a close look at Ryans's eyes when we lit off the GizzleHopper with him in it? About 3 inches in diameter....................and that smile :D. Will it ever come off?

    Thanks Ryan from,

    The GizzleHopper gang

    The history link that TooMany2Count posted is a very good read. I was stoked to have it at the Texas Thaw and hope they show up this year also. Nothing like history that screams out power like that.

    eww... no pics... PLEASE! :)

    Sitting in that thing with nitro blowing in your eyes and ears is an experience you can't write about. Memorable to say the least.

    Thank you guys.

    So its a cartoon character that his brother drawed,

    What did this Gizzlehopper do in the cartoon?
     
  12. According to my brother, which by-the-way, was sort of crazy like most artists, a GizzleHopper was and is a prehistoric mamal-bird-lizard cross that had only one purpose in life. Killing/destroying and then Eating hemi's (all brands) and ****ting out sbc's. It left all pony's, Fords, rockets, studebakers, nash's, etc alone. It hated all hemis and really disliked sbc's.

    So it's extinct then???? From starvation......why, not being able to CATCH all those Hemi's and all....:p:D



    j/k Beep.....
    I love that car.....
     
  16. LOL Sinistercustom,,,,,,,,however, it didn't have to "catch" too many to have a meal. The GizzleHopper was usually way out front from the get go due to outstdning driving skills by the once dashing young man that drove her..... :)
