"My itasha wrap. Although this is the second wrap on the second car (first Evo was totaled by a drunk driver), I have met so many people who have become some of my best friends with it.

If not for meeting them all over the years, I wouldn't be tracking this car, enjoying some of the hobbies I have now, or even participating in this event."
