Hi pag, it was nice to meet you at the show. Your mod list was quite extensive! Its nice to meet an owner who takes his car out on a track and enjoys it I hope to get some pics of the show up soon - having trouble with the gallery though I should get it fully running by the end of the month hopefully.

In the meantime I'll be posting up some teaser pics around the forum so watch out.

Nice car man... very jealous. I'd love to mod mine but a Remap is all I've been able to get away with :P

Next car I'll do it too, I'll be bloody 23 then! XD
