Passed smog test!

[NavySEAL2B at insightbb.com (GTG)]

Amusing read on our testing system from a buddy of mine with an old GTI. 
I've mirrored the page from our local car forum to my server:

P.S. That car has the richest history of any i've ever known.  I've known 3 
of its many owners, it's had a handful of different engines, paintjobs, etc, 
been stolen, trashed, very nearly crushed, changed hands for $75, and last I 
heard is being built up for the GRM challenge.
