I am not a candidate because I spurn pop culture. What can I say, I'm a pop spurner. Would be so cool if a genviber got the spot though Paul, thanks for letting us know of the opportunity

Ok, after thinking this over I bet stang2Vibe would be the right person for this. Better yet, Nick! Nick, remember the meet in Dundee Mi.? It's too bad we didn't get it on video when Aaron and myself was installing your dual Hella horns. Nick: Rich it's getting late in to the day, do you think we could get started on installing my horns.rasermon: Sure Nick. Let me go find Aaron and we will get going on this. Nick: I just can't wait to hear the sound of the Hella's from under my hood.rasermon: Nick, may I suggest that we do a dual stock horn install under your hood. I have a extra one right here. Just think you would be the first guy on the site with dual stock horns. Nick: Rich [beep-beep] you! Thats not even funny!!!Lol, j/k Nick. I would have done it though.
