I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

ya, aircraft remover.
that shit is awsome, the paint was bubbling and steaming in less than 20 seconds. i sprayed the hole thing down, hosed it off with water and then just had a few stuborn spots. but that stuff is like industrial strength lol

did a nice job though, didn't ruin the finish.
