Hey Matt, glad to see the site back up so quickly, great job!
speaking of mocks, when’s yours coming back up? can’t wait to see it
Thanks Snoochies. I will be posting V.2 next week. Might repost the first one over the weekend.
Klima loves Zimmer because of his arm speed. I have to say to my amateur eye, he looks like an injury waiting to happen.
A bit of a short arm with fuel injected acceleration, then slams on the brakes in a sudden violent deceleration.
