What they say

Hide

We always say cars end up in museums, but not the buildings they came from. We're here to show you what used to be the Bahari Racing Building where Michael Walrip, Johnny Benson, and Derek Ko raced out of among other people. Well, this is the the one they call Rambo. Whenever I said that we wanted to come here, every single person I asked said, "You need to find Rambo." First race shop in this park, 1989. And everybody thought that Chuck Ryder was crazy for building such a big shop, believe it or not. Yeah. I was thinking like this is like a mega shop for 1989. You think about like what Stavas were operating out of back then.
