Always shave your balls before using a lathe. Bowling night knowledge. Digest that.

Soo Ive cut myself off from spending anymore $$ on my camaro for the rest of the year

How long do you think that plan will last?

litle88 · 05-30-2013, 09:43 PM

Yes BEER!! I like modelo's, corona! And some Chicago pizza! That's a motivator there. Maybe we should meet up at nightmares place once he has the short block and make it a community effort lol. Then the tuning will be by Pat G or a good tuner with a good dyno.

litle88 · 05-30-2013, 09:44 PM

It hasn't stopped me since 1998!!! I say that EVERY SPRING!! Lol

SolomonAKOO · 05-30-2013, 09:47 PM

I'm having a bit of a problem keeping miles off my car. I work from home yet still have 22k miles on my car in 15 months... I had a silverado before the camaro and only put 42k miles on the thing in 5 years lol.

How the hell do you guys keep from joy riding? I thought the urge would settle down after a few months but it hasn't. Thought about getting another car to run around town in but I decided not to since I'd just take camaro anyways.

Most of my miles are joyride miles. I live 2 miles from work. That's the secret.

Well the down time my car see's is mainly in between mods, depending on how long they take. I do love joy riding, but I have had another beater for a while now just to offset the miles! only have 14k in my 2011

45thAnniversary2SS · 05-30-2013, 09:59 PM

That's really good. This is my first performance car so I just cant get enough of it. When I get home I'm already thinking of when I can go out again..sighs.

litle88 · 05-30-2013, 10:01 PM

I just drive my hooptie a 2000 mountaineer and keep my shit covered! Til the weekend

Just thinking of cleaning black cars motivates me lol.

FosterSS · 05-30-2013, 10:02 PM

when I lived in Florida, man it was like every weekend my car was out and it was hard not driving her during the work days. However, I was also about a mile from work!!
