I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

Honestly if someone were looking to get into pro street it would be worth the 23k bid thats on it now. And probably more. I recall a dude on pass time saying he purchased a car for 35k.

his reserve is prolly set around 35 - 40k but the buy it now is at 50k. The buy it now is usually set higher for the person that cant wait and needs it now.
