Man! Please be careful guys! I don't wanna hear about somebody tearing something up, or even worse, getting hurt. Not gonna preach, but that's just plain asking something bad to happen.

Stepping off of my soapbox now.

So Jeff finally raced his car. I clearly remember him saying over and over and over and over that he will NEVER street race EVER again..... Yeah.... Nice win, though.
