Yeah, I've been thinking of whoring myself out. Do you like it? I'm still thinking about it, but the Air Force would probably frown on that. Haha. Why hasn't the FD been money-sucking? That just seems impossible, haha.

(Hey... you should, too. Maybe you need to check your account balance.)

Cutting back on extra expenses... like girlfriends... can really help you focus on bigger priorities, like car mods.

(That's why I don't date women.)
Well, my alcohol bill is significantly less as well, I'm just trying to figure out why.

ROFL, yea you learn to enjoy it after a while. haha! but seriously...

the FD had been running solid for over a year. no major problems. had to replace a cooling fan, and some components on the fuel rail, but that's about it.

now, as an update to everyone else. it looks like i won't even be able to have the hinson kit in my hands til mid august. so hopefully a late august/early september date looks like a more accurate date.

This trail was blazed a couple years back in the Triad, and reblazed again in the Traid earlier this year

Well....yeah I do. Went with my son there once to pay a ticket he got for doing 95 in a 55 or something like that...

We meet the 2nd and 4th Sat of each month at the Char Grille on Strickland Rd here in Rallywood around 6pm.

I did an event there last year with my car, looking to get some new suspension and go back sometime in the near future.

Nope, I haven't mentioned it yet.

Oh, and I was told today that my rear wheels are already made and are on their way by ship, and the fronts are still being made but will be airshipped and will get here the same time as the rears, and I should be getting them in about a month, so maybe I'll finally have my wheels the same time you have your LS1 in, haha.

Your FD was the only one at Hot Import Nights in Charlotte this year wasn't it? Very nice, I got a couple pics of it but they didn't turn out so well, the flash on my camera sucks and it was super dark where they had your car. It was a shame to hide such a beautiful thing.

Doing great - I love it. I've always wanted to do the Deal's Gap run, but never have been able to make it - maybe this year...
