    This will be a great opportunity for Furious Pete to show where he stands. When hangs with, or beats Kobayashi, it will prove to all you naysayers that he is the real deal!

    Pete does have world class speed, that’s for sure. He’ll hang w/ Koby for up to 5 minutes, unless it involves an easy-to-swallow speed food like baked beans. Then Pete will, well, peter out after 1 minute.
