Don't get me wrong, me too, but I'm going to earn it all. You'll never catch me buying my son a Viper or a Z06. Best he's gonna get outta my wallet is a dorm room at a college.

+1...




what about just keeping the bike and not chase 126s at the track? cause your damn sure not going to do any real racing in a z06 without killing the car.

i would do whatever makes your parents happy, you have it made

EDIT and in his defense, i work full time and go to school at usf, and it is a mother fucking bitch. if my parents would pay for my stuff i would accept it in a heart beat. i feel spoiled because they let me move back home after it was too tough for me to do school full time and work full time just to survive.
but to have everything paid for takes a huge level of stress off your back and lets you do well in school, and the toys are like rewards for doing so, the only difference in my case is that i have to buy my toys

i'm not trying to get kicked out of the will.... i'll open up my garage frank...just dont jizz on the paint and no you cant drive it....

as for my racing career i'm 6'1'' 295lbs road racing is just a safe palce to haul ass....i'm not going to land a podium on the ama circuit, but even on the street i've pegged the speedo on my GSXR1000 3 times(189 and i kept going)
dont get me wrong i ride safe most of the time but when a school bus full of kids want me to do a wheelie i cant resist.

you know i thought that when i have kids if they want a bike i would give one to them....but now i am second guessing that. 189 is absolutly crazy on these roads. and doing tricks just because people want to see them is, in my opinion, stupid.

course im a new rider so 120 scares me shitless

I dont know how you are going to afford a new z06....

some stats.... and this price is not correct. the mark up is insane

MSRP: $65,000
Invoice Price: $57,525
Est. Payments: $1,356/month

If you made the $$... (and from what you say... You are way off), id say go for it.

I say be smart and not get a car you will struggle to pay for. And get that will maybe get you money later so you can pay cash for one.... House? some kind of investment? ....

whatever you do, good luck

189 isnt crazy just gotta find the right bridge or right part of the interstate, and i thought about getting rid of my bike before but riding is just something that i have to do and if i cant i go crazy, just like sex....
