I've got triplet girls that just turned 11. Their brother is 13. While all four were in diapers my monthly bill at Costco for diapers was around $400!
And I hate to tell you, but that was nothing compared to todays expenses. Wait until they get into sports, dance, music, whatever. Just went to their first concert the other night as I bought tickets to Taylor Swift for all 6 of us for the girls birthday present. $625! And no, that won't be an annual event! And people wonder why I'm not racing. But truly, racing pares in comparison to being with the family and nurturing them into adults. If you can go racing in the immediate future, great. But if you have to put it off due to time or money, don't stress out. With work and family, I just don't have the time (and rarely the money) to do this. But the new 390 AMX engine is scheduled for the dyno June 10th and I'm getting excited again. The minor chassis work will be done soon thereafter and I will make some test-n-tunes this Fall and at least one NHRA race. I wouldn't worry about the Canadian GM parts. NHRA doesn't seem to have issue with it as far as I know. A few documents should suffice.
