I have yet to see his car actually out on the road more then the 2 times I have actually seen it lol. Unless its a 100% track purpose car (which he already kinda spoiled that with a blower) then I dont see a 2 story spoiler being necessary for street use.

What are you talking about? When I came down and played on the highway a little bit?

I pulled plaf and Joey, German pulled me…

All while I was SPRAYING MY REAR TIRES DOWN WITH COOLANT (I did not know this until the exit 17 rest area, have several witnesses). Car obviously had major traction issues that night.

Who have you raced? Exactly.

STFU.
