Default BEGi Turbo Crossfire - Final Thread!





It ONLY took 1777 days (4 years, 10 months and 11 days) from start to finish!
Car was just returned and I haven't had a chance to look at it yet but will post here with more info as I get it.
Did go around the block to park it and got tire spin at around 5k in 1st.

Finally my signature is correct!
