- "Still early in his career, number 68, Manny Flywheel, is fast becoming one of the most consistent gearheads on the circuit. He's also the proud spokesman for his sponsor, N20 Nitro Cola, which contains nitrous to give you that extra pep in your engine. Though ironically Manny himself cannot drink the product and still race legally."
