sound mate, spellin is crap today, been playin golf all day and got a 10 on the 19th!!!!!
the s2 is 60mm, forgot how much hastle it was to get it that low until i went to put the wheels on the cab!!!!! might change the back bumpers and just spray the white one red!
how much of a ballache is the coversion to turbo power, tell you one thing though im quite enjoying being able to only put 20 quid a week in the cab and go whereever i want, funny thing is a drive harder in the cab than i do in the turbo and it uses less fuel and i get places quicker, and i never worry about breakin it..
