Lastly... So lets get back on topic. I'll start a new thread!!!
it's all good, I'm not trying to be an ******* or anything, it's just sounding alot like someone is trying way too hard to impress folks and it's just not necessary. The real people who go to shows and do this or that are usually the same folks who don't talk about it a whole lot, although I did mention mine solely because it was my first trophy for a car in over a decade and it represents a lot more than just aking 1st, it's a personal victory for me considering the pure hell and trauma I went through over the last year or so, I can dig up the threads lol

And I am not trying to brag at all. It sucks paying for all these cars. Believe me on that. It is the wife who wants the RX8 and Solstice. The 2 most expensive of the group. I just get the fun of modding them. I have yet to take first in any of the shows i have been in so go figure. And as for not talking about it because u actually go to shows? Come on. I would love to "brag" if I won best of show or best interior or best system after all the work i had put into a car. It isnt being a ******* at all. Heck I can and will help anyone with there car at any time. I am not above that at all.

No reason really. We enjoy them. No point in saving all our money. Just enough to be happy when i retire. Having to much fun in life right now. Will slow down one day.....or not.

it's cool dude, I'm not trying to give you **** or anything, just reading your posts you kinda' came across as some sort of "look at me" kinda' guy who was trying to flaunt etc. I'd have a ton of cars if I had the $ so no argument there. That solstice should be a lot of funto play with once the market for it picks up, as small and light as it is maybe someday you could have yourself a sleeper Elise killer lol What I meant about guys not talking is that they don't make a big deal about their show cars, Jenkins and I both compete pretty regularly, but I haven't seen him spout off about all his sponsors or his mods or his trophies or whatever, probably doesn't make any sense but maybe what I'm trying to say is a lot of folks on forums talk a good game, and then drive around in 100 dollar cars etc. I see it all the time, "I'm going to get this" or "my car is show that" and then it's bone stock and looks the same for years lol good luck with your rides and when you do stuff post pics, it helps for credibility (if that even matters, after all it is just the internet) to have proof etc

Cool deal dude. I understand the negativity of the internet. IT is all over all boards. I have left some sites cause it got outta control.

Yea the Solstice will be a killer hopefully soon. A guy up in Chicago just finished a crate LS1 swap in his at his shop and I have been talking to him about doing a LS2 in ours. Just a 8400 dollar price tag is what about made me poop myself! Think imma stick with the new hahn turbo kit that is coming out next month for it.
