for one thing were i live everyone learns to drive at around 10-12 years old. i have been driving my step dads truck whenever im at his house for the pat 5 years n(its a 76'ford custom with a 460 engine)so i can handle a little powere dont worry about that. and its not all for speed but as well as gas mileage and making my car nicer,smoother, and all around better.
and yes i know i said i want to go fast and thats true but i want to do it safely and somewhatlegaly.
i only speed when some a$$hole trys to pass me when im already going 65mph on the highway.
or when im racing and the road completly empty and clear.at 2-3 in the morning.
Oh that's real smart...contribute to road rage incidents[>:]......you have alot to learn.......like adder says get some more experience behind the wheel befrore playing...driving papys beater in the back yard ain't the same as defensive/ wise driving on the streets everyday.........so calm down and be safe.......as for what mods you may want to do??? show me how much money you got and then I 'll tell you what you can afford

hmmmm 600 a month and -228 and - gas??? not much to work with...best bet is save for a few months every penny you can and work towards a decent set of heads cam and intake....I'm not a huge fan of doing all the little stuff except exhaust and gears are the exception but those aren't so small......anyways all the little things like pullies...air filters tachs, gauges ect ect .....they are nice but I go for the throat if I'm gonna do something.....like right now I could of fixed my 11 to 1 306 that was in my 85 gt that ran low 12's but heck for 1000.00 more I can get a 347 stroker built and kick Ace which at 5:00 in about a 1/2 from now I'm placing my order with ford strokers!!!....that's what i MEAN BY GOING FOR THE THROAT...SO SAVE SOME MONEY AND WORK TOWARDS A MEANINGFUL MOD
