Nice and clean.

It's nice to see that it is a daily driver. Drive and enjoy it!

Not sure if I like the color though! LOL

Thanks. The car did serve as my daily driver for three years(it was my only car from age 16 to 18). Now it lives a little easier since I have a truck, but I still love driving it every chance I get. It's just too much fun :D.

Andrew, is racing truly in your blood? Any relation to Richard?

Nope, just a huge fan. I have been to his race shop and have even met Richard and Kyle.
