I should get 5 bonus votes for supplying the community Spec template.

So, since this is going on in each chapter can we only vote on our own chapter? I'd assume so.

 

[Spawn 93]

Not really, he did make it easy for me........ you on the other hand, might need a crossing guard next time!


Also, I will probably have the smallest tires in the competition.

 

[Lowrange2]

Your tires are exactly half the size of Glenn's!

It's ok. Tire size don't matter no how.
