Ain't going to be everyone's cuppa, ain't really my thing either, but it's a bit of a breath of fresh air in the scene.
And then he drifts it flat out.

Cool car but it would look so much better with rear bodywork, even rusty rear bodywork.

When Matt got the shell the rear end had been removed for another crash damaged pop, or else he would of used it. As it turned out he has made the rear end pretty cool with his link kit on show.

Not a good day for matt! He is pretty banged up, it was a hard hit, we think something broke on the rear, and it sent him straight on into the wall.

When I seen how close he sits to side of car that hit barrier I thought it must have hurt. Looking at that vid it looks a brutal wollap. I had a good look over the damage and from what I saw of car it took it really well now Iv seen how hard the hit was
