What’s up guys I’m here for some car bs’n and join the community. I drive a 1996 Eagle Talon tsi that I’ve been building up the past couple years that has turned into mainly a drag/street car. I used to be all about the car show stuff but until recently has caught the drag racing bug so I’ve had my ass planted at the track a lot lately in the past couple years. I’ll be posting up some pictures and whats done to the car later on as I’m not on my home computer at the moment. Thanks for havin me here guys!
