had a mate with an olf gemi and he just said fuck it..and took the springs out lol, needless to say the car didnt last too long after that...look fuckin awesome for a little while.. a very little while..
oh and our record is 9 people in a kb laser, it was after a piss up and lets just say the driver had no say in the amount of people crammed into this tiny car...
