Didn't you learn a dang thing from us? That is one hell of a fleet you're building up there. You're gonna need to start building that new garge pretty darn soon!!

People always asked us, why so many vehicles with just the two of you? My answer is BECAUSE I CAN DAMMIT!!! I say enjoy it buddy, you deserve it! Besides, it looks like we could possibly be vetteless soon, streetable that is, and might need something to drive every now and then Can we get on some kind of yearly plan? If not, month to month will work just as well.

I put SSW headers, K&N intake, tuned and the tranny beefed up by RPM transmissions on my 2006 TBSS. The puppy screams

Yeah, that 'sucker' car was cool--I was glad I didn't have to drive it though...

I had so much fun flogging all of those cars & it was a real ego boost to have these people come up & ask me to "please drive my car"...
