Drift Barbie's intercooler pipe doesnt have any beading on the end, thats why it keeps popping off. easy fix take it to an exhaust shop to get them to weld some beading on the end. And that was my mechanic that helped you with the tyre, small world! He wasnt even at the event!

Well done to Beau who got through the first round but got re-run'd on the second round. I have a new nick name for him, Beau "Re-Run" Best. That is about the 5th re-run I have seen him involved in since we have started sponsoring him!! Once again, more power, better paint, more stickers needed to win... lol

If you'd have just simply said "Trent" I'd have gotten that. He has a liiiiiiittle bit of a reputation. =) Sort of why I said above I wouldn't be too sure on the judges and was right.

I'm pretty sure josh loves trent Isn't that right josh?
