Do yourself a favor, build a safe race car or get a good life insurance policy. That way the old lady doesn't end up with a piece of charcoal and the kids.

Not to make light of your comment about the life insurance policy. But this is also very important. So far in my group of car guys friends 3 have died and they were the sole supporters of there family and because of carelessness and lack of planning there wife and kids not only have to suffer emotionally but now financially.

Plan for the worst and hope for the best and trust me this is coming from a guy that doesn't drink, smoke or do any drugs and yet had had cancer twice. You never know what life is going to throw your way and it's important to think about your family first so buy a 25 or 30 year life insurance policy when your young. If you have kids but it immediately because it's more important then any car part. It's your family's future.

Ps sorry for the little rant
