Why do all the dirty work when the experienced time proven stuff works and we can still have a life. There are people here that their job is testing stuff, that is how much energy goes into products/performance.

My point is why go beat the snot out of your car, try new parts, thrash it again and again, just to find out what works, when the BIG DOGS have done the work for you.
Its funny how when we start building a car you see your self carving corners, burning rubber and generaly running amuck. Then the reality hits you after the build its too nice too expensive to thrash on. Which sucks in a way. It seems the best cars for this are newer ones that you arnt emotionaly conected to. It also seems the older you get the stronger the take care of it syndrome is. Thats just my buck and 2 cents worth.
