Just like Phil said above, Griffith. I've met you once at 41, actually almost ran you. This was probably like 4 years ago, I had a 98 NBM Z28 that was pretty quick I'm aiming for the #1 spot, we'll see if I keep her together

Nope, my names Josh. I'm pretty sure that you had a white Z, but I could be wrong. I would love a SOM for a DD tho

Let's see some pics of the current ride
