Default The passenger with Romolo

The passenger that was with Romolo is now home and is going to make a full recovery. He does not remember what happened. All he remembers is that they were getting onto Route 3 from Roche and they took off that is all he remembers. The cops questioned him and wanted to know if Romolo used the turbo switch on the car and he said absolutely not. I hope everyone is doing okay.

I am not sure what it is called. They questioned a switch that was in the car. I was only in his car a couple of times so I don't remeber.

Nitrous, probably. Glad to hear the passenger is recovering. :blueangel:

I don't think he had spray on the car. I thought it was all head/cam..

Rom did have spray but it was not connected nor was the bottle full. I know this for a fact. I am glad that the passanger did make it alright but wish he knew what had happened :(
