That sucks and it was a free race, you beat him but he still drove home and still driving today. First get a job, then build a forged and freshened 357 cu.in. motor or stroke it like a man in prison.

Dam bro. How the hell are you going to get around? That gonna cost u at least 2k to fix, if you go the budget way. I mess up my car running a bike a while back, and let me tell you it was no fun towing my car home.

Damn, sorry to hear that bro. I blew a Head Gasket I think, well I hope anyways. It was still driveable though. I have 2 cars though, so I was good, and it blew 2 days before I left for IRAQ, so it is chillin in storage, and I will be back to fix and tweak it some more.
