Hey Ralph, didn't know you got banned from 6. They are a little tight at times for no obvious reasons.

I'm still a little upset that you bought these cars and didn't turn either of them into full blown track cars with welded cages, and etc.

The green one should have been complete by now, what's going on with the project? How far along are you?

also, don't worry about 6speed. you probably weren't 'baller' enough for them. maybe you could wrap the cars in gold, and they'd take you back....
