    Scotsman's car didn't even make it to the first neighbor's driveway. 3 houses? lol.

    It was still a very sad day though.

    Well man put it like this Jriley at least you arent like me.I was driving my car and I heard clank.So I checked oil and it was low ,so I added oil and slowly my motor start eating the bearings.I didnt care anymore I knew what was to come.My brother had got a h22 prelude so we ended up racing.Stock ls vs stock h22 he got the jump and he pulled on me about a car from a roll.Well like 2days later I picked my girl up from work almost back to my house,I felt somthing break the noise dropped so I downshift barely got home parked my car and thats where it still sits.That is also my only car so I dont have anything else to drive.So I just sit and watch it sit in my driveway.My motor was suppose to be back in like a week later.But its just now about to be done this week.
