He did, he's just working on the car for me in his Garage. I fucking hate wiring, hate SBF's, etc... If I work on the car I'm going to ruin it.

Whats the difference in waiting in line at the track vs standing in a parking lot?

When people would complain about distance -$20 entry fee -$20 bucks in gas-falls under just driving a vehicle , it's not like you run race gas -$200 towing fee cuz shit breaks at the track for me. lol- I break more on the highway. A properly setup car will be just as reliable as beating on it anywhere else. -ricers and newbs in stock Stangs doing burnouts in the waterbox splashing shit everywhere. -ricers and newbs in stock stangs breakin shit and driving all the way down the track draggin oil to kill racing for an hour at a time- these 2 sound like normal car meet activities -Coit- -15 minute drive -free -I don't race at the me Friday meet.

Two hours drive time, 4 or 5 hours at the track providing nothing goes wrong. I can't remember the last time I had 7 hours free to myself for something like that. It probably doesn't help much the car is so slow too. If it was faster I'd likely be more motivated to make it happen, but it's not so I don't. haha.

Hell, lately I can't even get myself to go to the Friday night meet half the time anymore. Ever since I changed my diet and working out seriously hard I'm so exhausted by 9pm I'm not motivated to go stand around in parking lot to talk about my slow turd.
