I use Allstate, so far so good. If you bundle it w/ car insurance you can get a smokin' deal.

I plan to run an ST level car for a year or two...

The BSP build has gotten out of control (money wise).

First thing I did when I got my car was went from roof to tires and pulled damn near everything off and put it back on, had the front suspension out, brakes at all 4 corners off, front passenger side hub, removed/reinstalled 2 axles, replaced sway bar bushings, replaced axle seals, transmission seals, exhaust removed/reinstalled transmission fluid replaced, rear dif fluid, all engine fluids, replaced orings on dip stick, had interior out, half the dash apart, radio removed and reinstalled, all 4 wheels have been off, sandpapered, buffed, and waxed... That was before I dropped it off at andrew tech for them to do a 1 over on the car and get it tuned.

All without 1 month of getting it.

Yup I bought a turn key car.

Care to talk about what you've done to YOUR car? How about you list the mods on your car? I can tell you everything on my car since I've had everything off it before putting it back on.



I'm just messing with ya, but based on your quote, you drive Anhs car.
LOL dont hate cuz you traded your good Z for a POS condition STi you had to do lots of work to make it correct. So far All I have done to Anhs old car was Body Kit, Hood, Wheels, headlights(I did all of the work some with help some without). I had the turbos rebuilt, but that wasnt something I was really trying to do myself. I might not be able to name off the entire list on the Z but I have a good idea of what is on it. Maybe not all of it, but a decent amount of it. The thing is Why do I need to know every mod on the car? I am not trying to go out bragging for the work Anhs hard money did to the car.

I understand man. I'm trying to decide between a Winnebago or just an SUV to tow the Z. Trackside rooms at VIR are not that expensive, and rooms near summit point are cheap as well.

Yeah, on the national scene, a whole lot of people tow/live in an RV during the events. I can't work any math where an RV becomes remotely a money neutral/making opportunity. Not to mention, any gas win or rv will get about 6 mpg towing a trailer. The diesels do better, but cost $texas up front.

I use USAA and bundle it with car and valuable property insurance.

I bundle everything through Allstate. Ive had to make some claims and it was no fuss no muss. They arent the cheapest but all I do is call and my shizzle is handled with no problems.

Yeah when crunching the numbers an RV is a no go. No matter how much I want to get one. I will just settle with a diesel truck or an older xterra.
