Drft-s12Lovin the knob   make sure you recommend all of you WITTDJR to be the best Zoner and dont forget the C.O.C Lucas Fuel Treatment alright lol hahahaha

Cant wait to see you back in action......so how did the Hydro E-Brake work out man???


the e brake was interesting, it worked great. but i didnt use it much. im not use to it.

i was just getting my runs done as fast as possinle without spinning out so i could dump water back into the radiator as it spewed out of the exuast

what it takes to do the job right!

EightySix200SX
whats the t for tandem??.


yes, though i didnt because i only had a few runs, i passed tech for tandem

DeezusAug 12, 2010, 5:50 pm · #1520

east coast is far from bs free... its mostly older guys saying they arent having fun anymore. Then blaming new guys for it.

David BAug 12, 2010, 8:32 pm · #1521

David BAug 12, 2010, 8:42 pm · #1522

LeegamerSep 8, 2010, 2:44 pm · #1544

I could maybe buy the scooter back. I feel bad for trading it to you, not realizing it was a POS.
