I'm spending way too much on my car...

I can't stop. I just got Hoosier R6 tires, new racing brake padlettes, fluid, brake bleeder and manuals. Now I need a trailor, a bigger garage and a new wife. When will it all end?

I don't even tell my wife what I spend on this car, lol! She would kill me. At least she didn't say anything when the R6 tires showed up, lol! But now there are a few boxes that will be delivered, and I'm sure I'll hear about it. It's like having a boat.

Mod the wife with the locked in the kitchen-turbo kit.

I tried doing that to mine, but she did the locked in the bathroom-mod to me.

Wow, I'd try the that, but she would give me the "locked out bedroom and sleeping downstairs twin turbo mod." Can't have that now!

I have a honey of a wife that supports the "habit"! Five corvettes! I've just "retired" and she's still working while I'm now a "house husband"!
