Default Quick Photoshoot

Well it had easily been over 3 years since I had taken quality pics of the whip. My brother is in town & he has a MUCH better camera (Nikon D3100) than I do, so I took some pics. These are un-edited, just shows what a good camera can do!

Thanks to all for the nice comments!!!

The CCW's are 19X11 F's & 19X11.5 R's. I drove down to Daytona Beach (I only live around 45 minutes away) & toured the CCW factory with the owner (John). Great experience!
