I wish I wasn't in college and wasn't so busy so I could work more often!

Right now I'm hoping to upgrade for a 355 lt1 with a baby cam that made 379rwhp on stock gears and stall

Need all the little odds and end but that will have to wait. I've got smart and am trying to get myself out of debt, so I can live more comfortably. If all goes good I should free up about 600.00 bucks a month by the end of this year. Still got my PT job as well. It's off and on I recently started working there again, after two months off. Also If we do get a bonus this year I will get whats left and finish this summumabitch...
you did, it keep us posted with the build

I'm not bitching or anything but god I can't even claim one of my 2 kids at the end of the year.


ss.slp.ls1 your right the **** I go through to get our cars fast/running. At the end it will be worth it. I'll especially be glad when people stop asking "hey is your car almost done?" yea for the past 2 years everyday...!
Wont be long till your at the gas station and people are asking you whats done to it every single day. Its always fun to get random compliments on your car.

Child support? Sounds like some of you have bigger problems than just modding a car.

Then again... children or car?

Or... third option: www.zecco.com

Make money on your money so then you have more money to win with.

good luck on the car and never let her find out about the 2nd job. They will give her some of that money also. Remember loose lips, sink ships.

LOL that's a good one... She wont find out about my 2nd Job. I got good news today I am getting my bonus Friday. 1,300.00 take home. About 50% of that will go to the car. The rest will go to bills. I'm Glad I got Christmas gifts out the way... Good news is it will free up mod money from now on... At the end of all this I hope to take out a few of the top dogz around here. Evey one around here thinks LT1s cant make power, hopefully I prove them wrong.

Well this ******* sucks ***. I got my bonus today but half was taken out for child support. I called up there because it states in court papers that she gets nothing of my bonus. Well they tell me I owe 2600 in back child support. I'm like wtf how, Ive been paying everything. they said because there is no statement in final court orders saying that you complied with temporary court orders you have to pay. I told them I did. The simple fact that I wasn't help in contempt of court in the final hearing should be proof enough.... I tell you us divorced men (with kids) here in TX are fucked..... End of rant...

Sorry to hear that man, I love Texas, but that divorce/ CS bullshit is dumb. It's taken way too far too often, and abused more than not. GL, bro, hang in there!

Divorces suck. Hope to never get one.... Trying to get my wife on horsepower band wagon and have her start paying for some of my ****.

Oh....I also have two jobs trying to get my rides done. I ended up starting a business so I can write off some of my purchases on my taxes....
