Too long. I need to replace a few parts on my old suspension and right now I can't find exactly what I want without spending excess money for a kit, when I need just 2 parts. There are some things on this car I know are weak from age and will break. So before i run her, i want to make sure I can quickly fix my daily driver. I have other priorities right now before modding my ca.I have to fix the a/c in the Camaro. Between that and Josh's b-day party this week, there goes $750 bucks this week.

I am a young guy and have plenty of time left and refuse to use any savings for the car.

I did go in debt for the previous car and had nothing to show for myself for it. Not this time around.

On the Friday Night shootouts, can you run drag slicks with a non-street legal car?

you're not supposed to according to the rules, but they don't care. if the car has an up to date inspection and a coolant overflow that is just about all you need.

Well, no current inspection and I don't plan on having it updated either, haha.

I'm just looking to "dial" the car a little better, and VMP has no Test-N-Tune's for a couple of months. Sad.

I could be convinced to let my engine go for a small amount and you wouldn't even miss a race day.
