    when I went a couple years back, off the line I went part throttle, then went full throttle, I'm out of practice and apparently forgot how to launch my car.

    I've been wanting an air compressor for a while, I didn't know they were that cheap. what kind of power do they run on?

    theres the type that plug into the power port, and its a little compressor, then theres the air tanks they sell. they hold up to 100 psi or a bit less. i was going to get one and was reading the reviews and they said the tank is good, but its air hose sucks and should be replaced asap.
