not to be a dick. but you are obviously going for a “it’s not really slow, it’s fast” kind of sarcastic thing with your plate. Hate to break it to you… but your car isn’t fast. That plate needs to be on a faster car. ---

Maybe Geoff is going to mod the car with boost, exhaust and a reflash, then pwn your Lotus Ricelese? If he did, would he then be worthy of a “It’s Slow”? Or maybe he could get, VIOLTRJR for a plate since he pwn’d you… 🤣 ---
