Default the car could be getting sold:(

weeelll my dad might b selling the stang. technicaly the car is his so it is up to him but if he does sell it he said he would give me half of what we get to get a new toy. im guessing the car will go for around 12000 so id have about 6k to get something. i would b keeping my nitrous kit and my micket thompsons. i was thinking eather a 93-97 z28, trans am, or fire bird. or a 94-95 mustang gt. im leaning towards the stang but was wondering what kind of times i could run with a stock 95 gt with a 150 shot and the mickeys.

If you are on a budget I would say get an old 5.0 for about 2k and pour the rest of the 4k into building the car, I would bet by the time you are done you could have that car running mid 11's in the 1320 with no nitrous.

EDIT: Another good option if you like to go fast is a crotch rocket. but be careful

:bs:

dunno what kind of scam he is running with his ins. company but most teens with a 600cc not even a 1000cc bike pay around $100 a MONTH for ins.

Read the motorcycle forums and check your ins. before you go run out and buy a bike. I havent EVER heard of someone paying that little. Even 50 years olds with perfect driving records. (no offense to any 50 year olds here...)

And dont even bother getting insurance on a bike if you dont get full coverage, you will only screw yourself in the end. I paid around $90 a month for a 2005 R6 and I'm 22 with 1 ticket, multiple vehicle discount, and MSF course training discount.

Bikes get stolen and dumped way to easily for me to put next to no insurance on one.

BTW, Hi I'm Dan, I'm new here :hi:
