What chaz Had To Say

I can't believe I won car of the month, I didn't even know I was a contender until I got a PM telling me I won! Its really cool to know all my hard work and time is getting recognised, I do all the work on it myself, which I think is an important part of modifying any car. Just want to thank everyone who voted for me, and most importantly my friend Liam who took the cool pictures you all saw in members rides. He's my best mate and is really wanting to do more car photography. Slow and low that is the tempo!
