hay pumpgas you bought that orange car from tony here in so-cal.when he seen my wing on my car he tried to copy it.if you look at my wing you can see some similarities.he only had that car out to the track about 8 times before he sold it.i wish i had the money at the time he sold it i would have bought it!!!
