a great combination of personal skill and effort, and the money to make it all go together! well done to you

does that translate to "need to lower it until rubbing occurs, then get the hammer out" ??

DriftLexus · 06-06-2006, 21:43

Good update, looked stunning at Rockingham, Really like it, its different to the norm too. I would think it will make a V.good track car too with that power and a sorted chassis.
