Default Lost a little bit of pride, time for a SC!

This morning on my way back from my hair cut at a stop light I look over and see some teens about my age in a mini cooper S and I knew what was about to happen anyway I beat him off the line but 45-70 his *** end was at my hood. So I decided its time for a super chips cortex!

What mods do you currently have? What engine do you have in your truck?

What where you driving... you dont have that info in your sig... Year Make Engine? The MINI is quick but unless you have a 3.7L ... with the right mods, you SHOULD be able to take one rather easily.

SPEED SAFE, AIR RAM
