    Spending money on mods without letting the wife know.

    Who's guilty LOL! I just bought a nice Dyno tune adjustable bottle heater and a couple different nasty jets.

    Good for you. I bet I don't know about over 90% of the shit she buys. Granted they dont cost as much, but they sure as hell are more frequent.

    I just tell her I spend half of what I really spend. She never has asked once about what I spend, but I tell her about some of the things I buy just so she is "included" (i.e. emotional bullshit).

    I never really tell her anywhere near what it is so she can't keep bullets in her back pocket for later. Not that she could, I spent more on Jewelry for her this year than I have on my car.

    I guess it's just a different way of lying..

    EDIT: Hey Gene, since you're buying parts are you still sellin the car?

    I actually can't complain about my wife, she's pretty good about understanding that this is my hobby. Besides, as I found last summer, blown cars in AZ need intercoolers.

    I dont know man, I sure would miss the crowd we were hanging out with yesterday. After seeing all the bad ass cobras, it will be hard to part with it. I know if I sold it, I'd regret it and probably end up buying another with more money out of pocket. So no, I'll keep it. If i sold it, Dan would have all the fun. There's no way in hell I'm letting him think that he has the fastest supercharged cobra in AZ :lol:

    Dan, I respect everyones car. Your car no doubt moves. I was impressed. I think it has something to do with the Dr. Gas X-pipe. I need one, hook it up! Next time, 3 honks, full bottles, no passengers that weigh over 3 hundo (sorry Ethan LOL!) and the wiener buys the loser a beer out of pity.
