R.I.P. VRAlexander

I don't know How many of you guys have heard of VRAlexander But He sadly passed away recently. He was the one with the incredibly loud and incredibly sick Carrera GT with AWE straight pipes. He was pretty well known in the car community. Its so sad to hear about his death. You can read about it in the article posted below. My condolunces go out to his family and friends. Please be safe out there guys.
