I'm not sure how you achieved that result...I can't duplicate your results but I can say with certainty that it's not on our server. Color me confused and/or raising the flag.

At least I can still appreciate a tasty Celica with flares, boxy or not.

I think it would be funny as hell to put black ones over the lights of a truck like that, and them motorize them so I can waggle them at people and get the truck to make faces.

Looks like the European Touring Car Jag XJ 12 car of the 70's. Spectacularly beautiful and spectacularly unreliable. Always fast until they blew up and allowed the BMW's to win!

So a year ago I saw this picture on the internet.....and then I was internally forced to run out and buy 2 1950's Morris Minor's. Building for the Challenge $2012, should have 1000hp and a parachute.
