That day he was throwing his GDB Impreza into every corner and burned a set of rubber in just one day.<br \/>\nAt that point I knew we have the same kind of vibe.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.speed-industries.ch\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/n1017564168_280113_672.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"n1017564168_280113_672\" width=\"598\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It does not matter if you see him at a rock concert or your grannies retirement home, he knows how to behave properly and is a rather calm type of guy.
