I know my way around a garage, but if I had the money I would probably pay someone to do it for me. I would also be handing the guy the wrenches and watching and helping whenever possible just to learn.

So you hate modifying your own car, and you hate doing things that make it faster yourself, right?

True, but I look back at all the things I fucked up on, and I can honestly say I have learned from it all. IMHO I would rather get help, maybe even pay someone to help me rather than just drop the car off, that way, you will learn from it rather than just have a fast car you can't work on. If something goes wrong at the track, on the street, whatever, I like being able to dive in and at least know what I am dealing with rather than stand there shrugging my shoulders. Then there's that thing called the feeling of accomplishment, there really isn't much else like it.
But, maybe it's just me.

If you've got a complex because your swapped, turbocharged, nissan can't keep up with my stock motor'd nitrous'd Buick, sorry, I won't race you any more until you are faster than me so you'll quit calling me names, if it's something else, let me know, either in here, pm, or in person, but this shit's got to stop. I don't mind talking shit, I do it as good as anyone, but you seem to just be looking for the stupidest reasons to jump my shit.

Billy,
I am sorry that I have offended you. If everybody got it except me why did the Show reply correctly on his first try? My point here is that there are some pain in the ass things when it comes to certain mods. Some of the guys here may have never dove into a big project and therefore have to pay for it. Who cares how they do it except for you. I certainly am not going to rip them because they or their family has paid for the mod. I commend them for having the smarts to realize their limits and send it to a pro rather than fuck it up as so many have done before. Hopefully this post will cure your WTF confusion.

PS. stop being so sensitive.
