Caught that. Twas awrsome. Ahh, the nostalgia of flicky, evil 2-smokes.

Could not believe how much everybody was looking over their shoulder. (Maybe wondering who that lapped German had nerffed off this time?)



Will be catching the rest of this series. Schwantz/Rainey was when I started watching GP's. Plenty of absolute thrillers from those two.
