The Grind Stone is where RMDW team drivers will spill the beans about their rigs and the set up they use and the parts they recommend you to use to get the best overall performing rig that you possibly can. This will include but not be limited to Paradox parts.
In here, we'll tell you what we think...our opinions may not always match but that's what being a part of a team is all about.
We start below with some info about Thomas' Creeper and the upgrades made to it...
