I'd like to spend money on the Z, but Brandon started up hockey again. I'm not sure how this season is going to progress. He's in bantams now, and it's looking rough.

No way would I pay that kind of money for a car like that. It may be rare or forbidden fruit, but I'd rather get the FF Roadster or Cobra replica for that price.

Yeah, that RHD is from the same guy I know who imports and loves his RHD cars, I nearly bought his supra years ago...however, for less than that, my LSx allows you to see the pearly gates before 3rd gear, so IDK if that $ is nearly close its valuation.

On that note, found the parachute for Trans Dave, its sick...add that to the 17x11's and 17x9's.....$$$$ its going to be an expensive winter here.

Very impressive sir! I'm currently studying finance. I'm thinking of minoring in another business related field, but I'm unsure as to what yet. Possibly economics or accounting. I'm looking to reach CFO status one day.

^^ Good idea, organizational management and workflow process will be your friends...logistics...or actuarial work will aid in this as well; I was also a professor in the cities for 2 years while at Hospital and now with the Insurance companies, so real world no BS experience speaking. PM me for any further details or advice, I have helped a lot of people ironically on the forum with academic pursuits and truly enjoy doing so.

I am the series director so i have the hookups with 1/2 off track days and free membership.

The plan is to stud the tires, put on some ice fenders and take her out on the lake this winter.
