Gentlemen be kind, its a long road from illiteracy to literacy and the first steps are not always pretty. It takes a brave hart to present the evidence before the public. Keep at it buddy, you will get better.

Leave racing to the drag strips or a local track near you!

Wow!, you live in Mililani I remember when that area was just a bunch of sugar and pineapple fields. But I lived in Kaneohe, and went to Akahi Elementary, Kailua Intermediate and Kalaheo High before moving back to the mainland. Even with that substandard schooling, I learned English! I guess it was the 1/2 year at Camp Lejuene High School and 2 years at Jacksonville Senior High!
i dont know how your trying to put me down in the second part but yah im still in highschool

Do your Vette still have a wing? Why can't you just unbolt it and throw it away, or at least recycle it as scrap aluminum??
