Yeah yeah yeah... I know .... It'll take a long while before I can afford some go fast. Main thing on my list right now is a set of tires. I shoulda also done a little better of a burn out with this clutch/rear end package. No biggie.

I have a poker night tonight with some friends..but maybe after a headsup off a flag?
