    I lived in P.R. from 90-93 and absolutely loved it. You would see lines of solid car clubs cruising together so, a whole line of 10 RX-7's in a row or all rotary swapped cars etc... great people! So, so nice.

    When you're watching this in Puerto Rico and at the 6 minutes mark... The power goes out 😂. Now I gotta say you can't make this shit up. Love that you're here in Bayamon and don't skip on a chinchorreo weekend in el campo. You'll miss out a lot. Come to Corozal, Naranjito, Morovis in a rental and enjoy food and culture. You're 15 minutes away. 🔥🇵🇷🔥

    So the crack at 9.29 is actually very common in FDs. The power is so much that it cracks the brace. You just weld it back, and weld in tabs of metal inside to make it stronger for the future.
