well the tints were a gift for xmas. the exhaust cost me 100 bucks cause i knew the seller.
so i would say about 100 bucks for tints and exhaust is not that bad.
and sometimes affording parts is hard... when you actually pay for your car

you dont pay for yours.. wheres your mods
2 i-club stickers hardly count

Might sound strange, but the limits are much higher, so once you finally reach them you won't know what to do whereas if you got comfortable with your car at lower limits, you would, and then you would appreciate and notice the upgrades MUCH more.
and no i totally agree. it was just an excuse. how much is is it to drive?

Cost: $149 / $279 (one day / two days). Spectating is welcomed and encouraged, bring a helmet and ask for rides (but only if you want to be hooked!). Remember it's $10 each to get into the track (Infineon rules).
Anyone who might be interested in working Safety should enquire as well. It's a whole different perspective on the track.
I sold my track car, and I can't wait till my RS is ready to go. I have springs/struts, my ALK and brakes to install and work out before I can get out there.

And, tho I have seen one Prius on the track before, hybrids are not allowed due to the as-yet un-known hazards of crashing a mobile power station into stuff.

Can we take this conversation offline? I think at this point everyone has made their respective points, and this doesn't really need to continue. Don't see this as me 'telling anyone what to do' just a thought.
Cheers.
