Ahhhh...Crystal Cove meet

I have a buddy that goes to it all the time with his GT3...mostly to "network", talk about mods and simply garner interest in his business...lots of exotics for sure. The 6speedonline guys are there all the time.

That Bently needs to be dropped......Honda style. Where the wheel are tucked underneath the fenders, then it'll look tight. Not sure if without double wishbone suspension, car could go as low as a Civic.
