I only have 1 semester of schooling left after this if I want just the double in Finance/Accounting.

An additional part-time semester if I want to qualify to sit for CPA

Looks like winter time finally arrived here. Was wanting to hit the track this weekend, but it looks like it might be too cold

Come down south, we have a track on the street. You pay nothing to race and make as many passes as you want.

Might want to hate me but I Just bought a 2013 SRT8 jeep. Tomorrow going in to put 20% down to reserve the spot. Only 1 coming to Panama and it's mine. Don't even know colors or specs but don't really care.

Trading in SRT10 for it. . Time to modify a 4x4 SUV!!!!!!

Had some issues on the Dyno today. Made my first pull and got 444/418 or something close, and made a fueling change (was still lean) and picked up 10 rwhp from one change. FOund out my TPS sensor was acting up, and wasnt registering the correct values at WOT to actually give my car WOT fueling/timing. The Dyno operator was impressed with my car, and said he thinks 480 RWHP is attainable on pump gas!!! It put down 454/425 before we figured out the oops on the TPS. Pretty good IMO on that stingy dynojet.

Yea, I know a kid who has one. 7.0 stoker with a centrifugal supercharger. Makes like 800 something. He knows nothing but how to throw money at it, but it's still beastly.
