There was a meet two weekends ago.
The north beat the south for turnout for the first time in a long time.
There's usually a north meet at labour weekend too.
They don't call me the man with the rubber arm for nothing you know.............

Updates:
Got the old ugly tint off :-) Deciding to put bumper back on. Does anyone know if you can sand the chrome off?? Or is it a waste of time?? and wanting to swap my street work seats for some more old school ones like some old fixed back saas or recaro fishnets. But yeah will hopefully find something. Heres a pic without tints :-)

Why do you want to sand the chrome off?
