yea, it changed to va driven a lil while ago.

i live in Newport News (by FT Eustis) and I have hooker Headers and Lanes 3'' True Duals (dumped). Im leaving early Jan for 6 months, and if i dont sell the car here soon, you're more than welcome to listen to the exhaust if you want. when i get back, it will be close to summer, so there will be lots of get-to-gethers and cruises and stuff.
