I have always loved your car. I LOVED seeing you beat up bikes more! I can't wait to see you tear up more bikes!

I did dyno the car on 14lbs due to the gate spring not being able to make more on the dyno. It did 859rwhp/721tq. I tested it out on 18lbs last night with the new spring installed and she runs very strong.
