Thomas "GUS" Mahon
The meanest man to ever hotrod a
Caravan!

Just a low 13 second grocery getter.
 
 
 
Gus and the Caravan made it into a Mopar magazine just as I was doing my own 'research' into Turbo hotrodding. A quick call or two ended up with me making a trip to upstate Connecticut and Gus and I have been friends ever since.
He is one twisted guy; I think he just sits around all day thinking of new ways to wring more efficiency out his cars!

Yep, you see them clocks correctly, 12 seconds! Gus ran a best of 12.25 on
10/17/98 at Cecil County. The 11's elude him again, but next year...
