It's easy to get carried away. Especially when 1,000hp cars are glorified non stop on the interwebz. I caught myself looking at blowers and turbos and all sorts of shit and had to step back. No matter how much I spend it won't be enough so be happy that its not a yugo and enjoy it.

It's definitely an addiction. I told myself id be satisfied when I got a headers and a tuner, I've had them less than a month and I'm ready for more. The satisfaction lasted a week or less. Lol. At least it's not drugs or alcohol.

Go faster if you want to go faster. Stop when you're done. The End.

You know damn well it's not that easy. Especially when you're part of a competitive group of buddies with fast cars. Talk some trash, mod the cars then go racing. It's a horrible addictive drug! LOL

Yeah, it's easy to get caught up here. Hell, just racing Nick alone took A LOT of discipline for me not to spend like crazy on my car. But I managed to avoid it.

There is a few quick cars here, but really only three "fast" cars I can think of and none of them are Mustangs.

Just do an autocross or road course event and you will quickly realize that even a stock mustang has plenty of power, it's all about how you can drive and how you get the power to the ground

I've ruined a few cars taking them to far. While I see his point, I just can't really adapt it yet. I just mod, sell, move on.

It could have an unobtanium built trans or motor with unicorn gears and pistons, Will would break it.
