A lot could happen in five seconds during the Vietnam War. In those few seconds, you could fall in a punji pit, be attacked by a tigress or a viper, get cut off and surrounded by Vietcong fighters, escape an F-100 Super Sabre’s fiery payload, or get to a Huey evac point. Those precious specks […]
Was it true that this car could kill people it didn’t like? It was a huge, powerful job, hand-built to special order, but it wasn’t just its size and speed that made folk call it “The Monster”. No, there was something more to it than that. If the driver was a good person, the car […]
