Excellent work Mr. Hinson, Noah!

When I finally blow my stock block I know what 's going in....and it is NOT a forged VQ.

Car is at SEMA now, ouside by the Meguiars booth and the Tundra monster truck thing for anybody who is here at the show.

Thanks for helping us with the dropoff. I'm glad the truck driver made it happen for us. That is a long drive in a short period of time.
