Well me and the wife went to the NMRA finals in Bowling Green this weekend. We had a great time seen some good racing and enjoyed having our cars in the car show. We walked around and talked to some of the vendors at the track cause she wanted a CAI for her car, I told her I would pay half hell we were at the track and we were having fun, we stopped by the Brenspeed booth but they were a tad bit confussed on the custom tune ?? stopped by the Evolution booth but the guy told me to come back later to ask about the custom tunning..we got busy watching some racing and let time get away from us..Well got home yesterday and relaxed,today she asked me about the CAI and we discussed who would be the best to get a custom tune from,Rick@AmazonRacing tuned her 04 cobra to perfection[11.9@119 on stock tires]so she called Linn and the next thing I know I am paying for a JLT carbon fiber intake,SCT tuner and Ricks custom tune then she calls lethal and orders thier offroad H-pipe guess who pays for it..yep..man I should have got it at the track..But honestly I can't wait to see how it wakes the car up..:beer:

I'm working on getting my wife into it. We just bought two new cars, and I had her test drive a four-cylinder for hers first and she refused it, said she needed more power and didn't care how much more it cost her.

I was proud.

There you go..Its a little nicer whenyou both really enjoy it and she is not just there because you are, I see that so much at shows, The guy is out looking at cars and talking and the wife or GF just sits in the car and reads a book or in a chair like she is doing him a big favor..I see that and I feel truely blessed to have a wife I can share things with.
