it was ok, wasn't that exciting though.

On a bright note that's the first HD stuff i've ever seen of the V8's, albeit in a bizarre aspect ratio

You have 347 posts to your name. I wouldn't exactly say you are new to this forum... Even I have seen that video posted many times on here.

Have you heard of ken block??

Guys beware, this is NOT a brand new "sky blue" TE manual wheel, regardless of what the seller tells you.
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI...em=260703804144
It is USED and has been RE-COLOURED as is a shade lighter in colour.
