Default F**K YES! I Pulled the trigger!

Hey guys, I've been waiting 2 years for this moment. I finally pulled the trigger with Forged. Sharif has been very helpful with all my questions and they're starting on my stage 1 shortblock. By now he probably thought I was a tire kicker. LOL

I'm so excited. I actually teared up a bit after I got off the phone.

It's gonna be the JWT 700bb kit with fcon.

wow - nice. Sounds like you're doing it right the first time. Wish I had the $$$ to go that route.

Love the rims btw. I was thinking about going with the totally blacked out look, if I can actually get my car to be fast

Thanks guys. I'm really ecstatic about this! I'm even putting in a harder day of work and just had a great workout.

3 rounds of:
5 snatches per arm w/ 65lb dumbbell
5 swings per arm w/ 40lb dumbbell
10 burpees
rest 60 seconds

finisher:

farmers walk 100 meters with 130lbs

ahhh f*ck i love life!!!! Just go after what you want. Figure out a way to make the money, save and be responsible as possible with it and "waste" it on your true joys that other people don't understand. I cannot wait!

OK...I will tell you what Code Blue is..

There was a time when we kept getting alot of noobs that would come on here starting threads posting things like " I am thinking of going FI"..." Do you think I should go FI?"..."One day I plan to go FI.".... " What turbo will make me go faster?" ...and so on. It was getting painfull for us vets in FI. So when someone calls a Code Blue....one of the 2 Doctors on call would come and save us with some verbal humor. It seems to have helped...because I have not seen a Code Blue in months


Pictures are always good...we like picture.

BTW...like someone said...doing it the right way the first time will save you lots of money and headache in the future....plus you have someone like Sharif who always back up his work....

hahahaa I bet I caused 1-2 code blues in the past couple years. That guy who has the avatar of hillary eating a baby or something... He likes to pick fights so he was being a dick to me like no other in one thread.

anyway thanks for the reassurance about Sharif and Forged. Over the past 2 years I've been learning about FI they have always stood out along with GTM.

Jay if you keep saying things like this Sharif will start to believe it. Can you imagine the labor costs for God to work on your Z?! Way to be a blue falcon.
