[QUOTE="ElGato, post: 15764311, member: 35683"] So here is Uncle ElGato's unsolicited advice in two parts: Don't Wait and Don't Care For backstory years ago I bought my dream car, 1970 Cougar, and dumped every dollar I had into making the car how I wanted it. It was far from perfect, but eventually I stopped driving it because A) it was no longer streetable and B) I was afraid I'd break something. Sold a few years ago to pay for a heatpump. And then I bought this Mustang on December 31st 2013 from Brian Hoskins Ford. 1) Don't Wait. I had big plans for this car. Tint the windows, one piece alum driveshaft, two piece rotors, lightweight K member, tune, etc. etc. etc. I did none of those things. I kept putting it all off. I waited. If there is something in your life you want to do: do it. Don't wait. Sure money is nice, and planning things correctly is great, but don't wait for "the right time" because 20 years is going to blink by. 2) Don't Care. Don't care about what anyone else says. Do the things you do for you. If you march to the beat of the SVTP Knuckle Dragging Nut Swingers, (or anyone else on this planet) you'll make yourself crazy. The SVTP microcosm mirrors the macrocosm. The world is fickle. Do what you do without worrying about what the world thinks. You'll make mistakes living authentically, don't worry. You get better with practice, just like at the strip. The more passes you make, the better you get. This doesn't mean every pass is faster. You'll miss fourth gear roll racing some rich ghetto rat for pinks on instaturd and then not be able to show your face on the internet. It happens. But live for you. ...now if you'll excuse me, the ex-Nigerian princes have instructed me to take the car and all of my id cards to a dark alley where full payment in gold (or Walmart giftcards) is waiting...
