I met Terrance Wright at the Hot Import Nights Los Angeles 2006 car show extravaganza. A resident of Las Vegas, Terrance is a member of Team Showcase car club (Team Showcase has several chapters across the southwest, including one in Las Vegas). He was competing that evening with his "everyday" car, Tinkerbell. Terrance's wife loves the real Tinkerbell (the fictitious real one, not Paris Hilton's Chihuahua) and she actually designed the car's custom work.
Involving his wife with his "other woman" strikes me as an incredibly smart move, considering all the time and TLC he must put into Tinkerbell at her expense. Case in point: the night Terrance was in L.A. for the HIN show, he had left his wife home in Las Vegas. Well, not exactly "home" home -- she had wanted to stay to see a Nickleback concert. But smart is smart.
As for Tinkerbell, herself (the car), Terrance described her as being somewhere between the "mild" and "crazy" competition classifications. I'm guessing Tinkerbell's nitrous tanks fall on the crazy side of that continuum...I've never heard of nitrous tanks coming standard with the car.

Got a bone to pick or a story to tell? (Hopefully the latter) Well, here's your soapbox. Take this opportunity to sound off or to bicker endlessly with other users over pointless minutia like true denizens of the internet. You're the man now dog.
