And not end up divorced, giving her HALF and starting out with almost nothing then trying to get back into it but since you had to sell most of your stuff to pay her off you are now a keyboard racer talking about the past. 50-80K for a Pontiac vs 1250+HP Shmidt BBC for 29K with a one year racing guarantee carb to pan. 1100+ HP for 20k. Some Pontiac racers have way over 30K just in their heads.
We all look up to the big time guys who have worked hard enough to set themselves up to give it a shot. Happy for them and glad they are there but reality sets in on our own money pits, and that's exactly what they are. But its fun, every hobby worth doing gets expensive.
Yeah, I see no need to not run 91 octane bracket racing. If I could travel and do it I would run alcohol and 15-1.
The heads, most know that KRE is not the BES of the Pontiac head porting world. But they make the most stuff by far and we should all be glad they are here. Because there would be a giant hole in the Pontiac world if they did not exist.
You're an odd little fella
