then friday afternoon we rolled the monster bus onto the ramp and stripped all the running gear off, looks a lot better when you get it closer to the floor

i've already ordered a set of those BBT repro Sprintstar's, they should of been here at the end of last month and i'm starting to get a little impatient.
