Supposedly dyno tomorrow…    

Gearbox porn indeed…

Holy shit balls, have I been living under a rock or something?  That’s a HUGE development.  Part of me is sad to see it go, but then it makes perfect sense, should piss a few of the euro purists off too…  So a whole new thread, or continuing on with this one, maybe renamed?

The fat bitch is dead, long live the svelt Euro…

Excellent, Jason is a good operator, I would trust his stuff.

You see Volvo in mine, I see fag in that

Awesome, thanks very much.  Kinda leaning toward this for the plates

Yep, get that ll goog.  Got it happening on Bookface too, how about VLW-304?
