Very small part of what I have spent over the years. Should have looked for a cheaper hobby.
Instead of selling my car, Mr 440 MOPAR, since I need to quit, what do you think I should do with it?

Running a SS/JA car is a tall order if you plan on winning any heads up or class runoffs with Ed's car in the field. Very hard runners in that class that have invested a ton of time and money.

SS/JA is one of my favorite classes. Lots of different combos and most run VERY well. When Indy comes around, I'm on the fence for this class...

If you want heads ups, SS/JA is the class for you. All three mfgrs built several cars that fit there.
What I meant by "kiss your money goodby" was running Super Stock. No reflection on any one combo or class. SS is expensive. Comp is even worse.

Sale your car and buy Apple Stock from ScottTrade and retire happy like I did five years ago.Only cost $7.00 plus the current price of stock.
You can thank me later!LOL

I'll have to look into that, David. Got out of the stock market after losing so much in that mess in 2008. Been trying to avoid that again.
