Think you need to have some tail sex with your car. Make it feel loved.

Yeah, the speedlimit was 60mph and we were probably doing 50mph? It could have been MUCH worse.

I wasn't even going to go because I knew there was rain in the forecast, but they said it would be patchy. We didn't hit any rain from 9:30-12 and then the skies let loose.

Time to be a ****, do drugs, commit a felony, have no morals and womanize right now. It will be worth it!:p

The body shop is backed up and still not done with my car...it's been 2 months today since the accident. The car has been ripped apart for weeks. There was consderable damage under the skin of the car (original estimate was just under $7k and now it's up to $12k not including the suspension yet). The rear tub was cracked. It's at prep/paint now. Three of the 4 HREs have been refinished. I at least got a couple pictures of my hood and bumper today. I can't wait to see this damn hood on the car. It will transform it! I am selling my townhome. It was under contract within 7 days of listing it! I REALLY don't want to sell the Viper, but it would really help for a down payment on a nicer single family home. It would probably be easier if I had been enjoying my car over the last 18 months, but I haven't and that's why I really don't want to get rid of it.

A lot of work is required to remove the top

damn bro, sell that ******* pig, and buy yourself a baller house and a kia....

and then a 458

Sorry to see this man but at least your alright. That new hood is gonna be awesome!

Well, I've had the car back for a week now. I debuted it a FL2K last weekend and I won 1st place domestic in the car show! Not a bad way to make a debut. A picture from me pulling into the event was featured on Stancenation's Instagram. Not a bad first week...

I went to get my headers/throttle bodies/exhaust finally installed today, but my car wouldn't fit on any of the lifts at the shop... So the wait continues to find out what all this horsepower talk is all about. I still need to take the car back to the body shop because there are areas I'm not happy with, but it's just nice to have the car back for a bit after a 3 month downtime.
