you wrestle? what weight? try pming maybe we can tlak about some technique here and there....but thanks w/ the car......looking more into it im liking it even more. it is a manual and instead of 4 on the floor it is 3 on the tree :)incase you are wondering what that is....instead of the shifter being on the floor of the car it is on the column...like in most automatics where the shifter is on the column. i will try my hardest to keep you guys updated.

lol yes I know about manual transmission... as much as I may sound like it, I'm not a COMPLETE retard (only partially ;) ).
And sorry to get your hopes up, I don't wrestle, I row. Hence, "(crew)". Although I have so much respect for wrestlers. I have a couple friends that do that... it's demanding!!

Hey RT,
I don't personally wrestle myself, but, I go to a school that is nothing but wrestling. Ever heard of the Graham Falcons in Ohio? We have been ranked in I think in the top 3 in the nation for years now, and we have won 5 state titles in the past 6. I believe we were #1 last year in the ranking with public schools....what weight class are you?

Nah, I'm sure there are plenty of streetrodders in Indiana that have streetrods with flames, if there is such a law, which I kind of doubt, it shouldn't be in effect. The name dosent ring a bell...
