alright, i'm on my third car in a year, my mom crashed my bmw, then i flipped my montero....now i'm on a jetta...noticing a pattern?

I road race on back roads not drag...it's about the driver not the car.

The kill list begins,
02' MX-5
Acrua RSX
e36 325is
Acura TL

losses,
Lotus esprit S2
spec mx-5
Cayenne S, that was a sad day...getting beat by an SUV

(Update 12/26/07) Day after x-mas, got some fun toys. new PaceSetter "monza" exhaust for my car as well as driving lights. the exhaust came with a tip which i'm still debating on putting on cause it's a fat 4" can from a 2.75" tube which i think is kinda tacky so i might do a smaller tip just to dress it up a bit.

(Update 10/14/07) The new suspension is in and wow does it handle great. Even though it's not the best stuff, huge difference. pics of the work below, and i have to say thx to my dad for paying and doing the instillation cause i had traffic school all day.

(update:10/1/07) KYB GR-2 shocks and Vogtland, sport lowering springs came in the mail, translates to a 40 mm drop, install will be this weekend.

the jetta goes on a diet....

already started with stripping pointless things off like the moc driving lights, removing that and some trim in the bumper gave me an extra 2 hp and saved like a pound, i think thats kinda cool.
