You need a sticker that says powered by closet parts lol.

Im just trying to do my thing down here. LOL have a nice sleeper show car that looks like its all special effects then BAM. I just had a nice conversation with Cisco at strictly modified about the built transmission. I was surprised he was extremely nice and did not seem annoyed to be on the phone like most. Gave me some nice information and some videos. I need to post them in here but he honored and back his built tranny makes it easy to rock there product. NOW IF THEY ONLY BUILT TC WITH LSD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
