Running on red Koni's and -40/-40 KW springs car is incredibly best looking and fastest in corners!
Just to make smokers gelous, that Marlboro cost in spain less than 2 pounds!
All coments welcome!

scatt's wrong, the wheels dont sit right when you first put them on the floor and they do settle more, 60 miles from the garage

theres a difference between settling and bedding in
they will settle right away, they wont bed in for a couple of weeks, i dont care what anyone says - they will take a bit of time to bed it and eventually sit lower.
