    Maybe it was a wake up call for me. Over $30,000 into mods for a car just to have it creamed on my way to work. I may take a year off from cars and see if I still have that burning itch to have a fast car. If I do, I'll be back in something bigger and better.

    650hp Integra to 800hp Z06 to... 1,200hp TT Viper?

    Realistically, I'll probably get a bolt-on/cammed C6Z and call it a day.
    Hey man we met up at Pleasent Hill that night,
    Honestly if you like speed (which I can tell) you need to get a good prepped beater track car on come to the track. You can invest little money in a crappy car with a good chassy and have 100x the fun you can have in any street car at any track. Spending money modding out street cars is just a lost cause. Your just paying tons of $'s to do what you like to do illagally even faster. I wish I had the money for an 800hp Vette or a 1200hp viper to have occasional fun in but i'm glad I can have 100x the fun in a 4k spec E30 all weekend at a track. I'd suggest doing the same if you think "cars are getting old." Maybe if you do this you'll see where the real adrenaline rush is..that way you dont have to waste tons of money trying to get one on the street.
