Kiss It Goodbye

I have decided. (well for this 20mins. I will have another plan soon.)

Kiss this car goodbye.

No one knows it's potential if I was to sell it to them without the many many many many mods I installed in it.

So I am going to practice every weekend over this winter and will do my hardest to go as god awful fast as I can and whizzz past **** at speeds that I shouldn't.

I think the car will not be around next season.

I rather learn with it than deal with crybabies.

I would like to thank you. It will die doing what it loves then fall into the hands of someone that does not know what it loves to do.

What am I going to kiss now?

I kissed a light post last night with the driver's side rear.........

I gotta get AAA.



Here is a picture that I nevered posted on the 'net because of the ****** that steal other's work. I added some text that came to mind with the end of this season.

I am fed up with people that want to drift but don't want a car that is just a drift car.

That is all this car does.

Doesn't have a cranking stereo.
No interior.
Has cone damage.

It is too tough for people. It is like they don't want to hit ****.

That car was never centerfold material. Maybe if there was like a 120mph drift and you couldn't see the cone damage.

Coned drift cars are becoming "Out of style", new guys expect to be gods without hitting ****.

When trying to sell it for $1500 to $1300 people get all amped but back out when I tell them what is wrong with it.

All of the fixes are there.

2nd gear synchro is harsh - I got a whole tranny for you.
Winshield wiper contact is gone - I got a stalk to replace it.
Roof Leaked and that lead to some rust on the roof - 2 friends and 4 hours and it will be gone.

They rather buy a car with a blown motor for $900 not thinking about the tow they have to do $300. That is $1200. Even if I sell it to them for $1500 when they sell the KA and 5 speed swap they will make their money back.

PLUS you can just drive it the way it is.

I have heard:

"you can drive your car with a synchro like that?"

Been drifting for 4 months with it this way. Seems to be fine.

So instead of having this conversation 500,000 more times I took it off the market and it is going to be my street car.

Now it is the test bed for DGTA parts.

It is getting all adjustable rear arms and I will drift it every weekend. hahahahahah
