Re: Western Off Topic
I've really thought about that.I blew the engine in the coupe three years ago,and it's sit in the shop since.I've acumulated everything to put together a 600+WHP setup.All I need to do is size bearings and order them,and I'm ready to start assembling everything.....But,I just never have the motivation to do it.If I do finish it,what would I do?I may take it to the track once just to say I ran X time,but I have no interest in drag racing at all anymore.It'd only be good on the street if a sportbike wants to go from a roll But that's just asking for people to die and/or get a jailtime ticket.
I've added up what I can get out of selling the car and parts,and it's enough to build the NA engine I want for the roadrace car,and would pay for most of putting an LSx in the M3.Both of those things interest me more right now.
My main reservation is just that I've owned that coupe for over 13 years,I spent almost $8k(totally stupid)having Woodings paint it and now some punk kid will have it on Williamson,washing it with a brillo pad after he bought it for less than half of just what I had in paint costs.....It kind of depresses me.I feel like I'll be the crying,80 year old man telling his grand kids(who couldn't give a shit)how he wishes he still had that one car......Or maybe I'll never think twice about it.
I love my bike too,but I rode it about 200 miles last year,so what's the point in that?

Re: Western Off Topic
My bike is for sale too. I know I'm going to regret it. I've always said I wouldn't get rid of this one after regretting selling every other one, and this one is like a baby to me, but I want to travel the world and even more importantly at the moment I need to get another car. Bad. I'm spending $50/day to rent a fucking car to get back and forth to work.
