Being broke sucks big time!

I've got all of the parts to make my 8 second motor for my 11 second car with a 12 second driver (aka ME)... But I'm out of FUNDS to get it machined.... Talk about bitter sweet. It's like the night before Xmas, but I can't open my presents "until further notice".

*sigh* I need a beer. Rick when can I come over and wrench on your car? At least your motor is already built!

Ben,

I think there are a number of us ina holding pattern right now. I can't wait 'til something breaks loose so we can all get back to the monkey business at hand!

Hate to hear of the shortage, but you'll get there, and when you do :D

If you're just DYING to turn some wrenches, I've got a set of long-tubes and a Bullitt Intake desperately needing attention. :D

Thanks Tracy, but mod-motors give me a mental wedgie. :)

Ben, your in the same boat as me for the most part. I have a combo I got designed for a bigger motor and/or a power adder of some sort. For this reason, my car is not running anywhere near its full potential. But when I start to get down, I realize I have a car RUNNING that is still somewhat quick and enjoyable to drive. This could be a lot worse if the car was broke and I didn't have the money to fix it. Till then, I am very content with what I have. Hell, you have a show quality clean Mustand that made ungodly amounts of horse power on a stock shortblock that you could take out anytime and go for a nice cruise. You still want to complain? Keep in mind, things can always be worse.

Damnit! I didn't think anybody saw me with those on!

:eek:

Shane,

I know. I'm very thankful that I have what I do. It's just frustrating to have all of this "cool stuff" around me and not have any funds to build it. It's taken me almost 2 years to collect all of this "stuff". It'll probably take me another 2 to get it built and installed at this rate.
