    I just had a thought - 1st off, the s800/s2k is gonna eat a 10k budget for lunch like it's a twinkie.


    But after giving this serious thought, why build a car based on the opinions of people in a thread. The project should REALLY choose you -- that chassis should just leap out at you and beg you to build it. If there are no cars that speak to you in that way --- like you BELONG behind the wheel of it, then you're just spinning your wheels tryna keep up w/ other people.

    Man - I have been in the scene for 14 years. There has been 3 DEFINITE times that I have been "in chill mode" -- watching things transpire from a distance. During those times I wondered if I was maturing, moving on from cars altogether. Each time that has happened, the subsequent projects took more time to build. I learned that I enjoyed the building process moreso than the finished product. Don't force it... relax, and just enjoy the things that you have accomplished. My best/fastest cars I do not even own anymore... but I can say that I have put together some decent sh1t in my day. One day u will wake up and pass by a car/truck and inspiration will hit you on its own.

    It sounds like you've got it right man. The plan right now is to save my money , help my dad with a resto for the "great race" as a father-son thing. Then wait for the right project to come up. Im really thinkin that ill wait till this summer when I possibly work for Honda, where some idea should slap me in the face and ill open my wallet to it! lol
