[QUOTE="Magik SHO, post: 2817834, member: 35636"] Ha, if I even get a month out of it, its still worth the money I spent. I drive like a grammo 90% of the time anywas to conserve fuel. I think the wheels actually spun to a squeak about once in 500 miles. A dollar per mile. I guess I could make the car pay for itself when it gets into a dime per mile. And if it breaks, be sure I can fix it, unlike people who bring it to "the shop". Ive seen this SHO section, and have my own lounges I hang out in. I guess I dont need to see the other half of the site. It seems like everybodys got a freakin mechanic and nobody here does anything on their own. Nobody here knows "tech". I dont need to hang out in a flamejob lounge where there really is no proper moderation. Ive done burnouts in a 6 second Nostalgia Top Fuel Dragster thats part of the family, all this street stuff is pretty petty to me. REAL racing is under 8 seconds and involves at least a 90% mixture of Nitromethane. WHY would anybody spend so much for a high maintainence street vehicle, and just as much in gas, and then theres the service department (for those "techs" who have to go to the service department). Im glad you can afford it, good for you. Im the kind who has a junker, then get to that old gutted 62 Roundbody Falcon I have sitting on blocks on the family farm.
