Well, considering I weigh an incredible 140 pounds and Ian Ashton weighs 120 pounds, I'd have to say no on that one

Chad.. you have the height.. but you are still a lightweight.. hehe.. At finals, with Mike Hughes' van, we had approx. 1100lbs of guys pushing on one of the doors. now mind you.. this was only 3 of us !!!! so do big guys work in SPL.. YOU BETCHA !!! I think the "smallest" guy pushing on the 2 cars we had there ( Nathan and Mike's) weighed about 200 lbs... no wait.. i don't think Scott weighs that much. (YET !) hehe

Now i know how to prepare myself for competitions when i decide to compete in DB Drag. I'm only 6'2" and 225 right now. I'll be up there with you guys when I start competing.

Maybe we should just have weight classes for competitors, where the big guys can't pick on the little scrawny guys. It's not fair for the scrawny guys.
