dodge44 04-04-2009, 10:22 AM Hi, my names Mike. I just ordered a sportwerks raven st off ebay for cheap to get started. I haven't even got the thing and I'm hooked. I have a lot of learning to do. Some of these cars/trucks are insane. I have a feeling I'll be upgrading quick and pass this car off to the kids.
