When I bought my car it was all about the shine. I was going to keep it pristine. Two months later I'm in the backyard pounding on the inside of the rear fender wells because the tires are rubbing when I'm going through the twisties.
AS 5.3's, TPIS lt, LG stuff, global A arms, ATI dampner..................
I am now trying to decide how far I am going to go. The way things are going I might as well clean out the bank account and get a C5R blocked **** stompin lump and save all the agrivation of going through various H/C combo till I get there.

I'm temporarily cool with my H/C/Bolt ons set up. Trapping 119+.

In the Fall, my goal is a TNT 100 Wet Shot. But that depends how much money I spend replacing what I break between now and then

Happy? YES
Satisfied? NO
Can I afford to be satisfied? NO
