Just a reminder of what the shirt design will be. Still gotta add the rest which is what I'm doing now. Front will most likely remain like the previous shirt

So with my horrible fucking luck I was on my way home yesterday from school a piece of shit ricer tried racing me an ran over what looked like a bigass chain well long story short he ran over it an it shot into my lane a an it shot up under my car an when I got home my car was making this weird idling noise but when I was going to work I didnt hear it an when I was leaving work it sounded really loud an would get louder when I turned my wheel. I tore all the plastics off when I got home an it looks like the noice is coming from the pulley all the way at the top.

i always forget that my bro is a 2XL.
whenever i go on vacation and buy shirts i always end up getting a XL.
they end up being gifts to myself because he cant fit a XL.

Gerard, you'll need to take off the plastic covers to check to see if anything is rubbing against the belts.
impact may have moved or bent something that is impeding belt rotation.

in other words, something is hitting a rotating, moving part.
it doesnt sound DAMAGING, but you'll want to look and take care of it as soon as possible.
