I tried not to drool on it for you Brent.

I saw it when I dropped of my car. The thing is definately a work of art.

The only thing full weight about your car is when youre in it. And to the weight reduction specialist I never thanked you for those 4 screws that didnt go back in. Thats why I had 10's with 25/hundreths to spare. Thank you!!!

I guess you didn't see Griff hollowing out the bolts he's using to hold everything together!! I think this weight reduction thing has become a sickness with him. We may need to have an intervention meeting with him soon.
