                    "The fascinating thing about our passion is the fact that it can bring the extreme diversity of ethnicity, culture, emotion, and interest together for one love. Automobiles are an amazing thing that provides a foundation for competition, cooperation, respect, loyalty, and friendship. It doesn't matter if its rice, donk, american muscle, jdm, edm, kdm, usdm, import, export, black or white...it deserves respect and if you are to immature to be able to give respect when respect is due, you don't belong in this unique and creative culture!" *2
