you are the man that I hope to be, you have the money and hookups to build a bad *** stable of cars! The reason I am trying to get a bad *** education to make the ducketts roll in...
plus gray can build my motors!

BTW Is 1/4 mile racing the ONLY thing you can enjoy doing with your car? Is this like the ******* Holy Grail of owning a high performance car?? Geezzzuuusss...
Don't know about some of you but I like to have a good all around car. You know something you can "do it all" in...I'd rather be able to head out to the garage at anytime I feel like it, crank it up, head down to the local Shell station with the A/C blowin' cold and the tunes cranked up, drive to wherever the **** I want to, play with ANY car on the road and out run 99% of them. Head to the local car show "driving" there and back. And then maybe shoot it through a few times just to see how "terrible" my high HP car runs compared to the "track" only rides...
And yes, I too have a small *****...
