I have to say. If I don't have a LOT of fun in the Challenger next year I will put it up for sale and pack the whole mopar thing in. I've been a struggling mopar owner for nearly 27 years now and it is wearing thin.

Winter time blues probably.
But having the money to build that extension on the house and have a decent holiday every year instead of spending a fortune at the Nats would be nice.

The reality is that your goals and needs DO change, fact of life.
Age, health, and wealth are significant factors.
Nobody would give a Bananarama! if I packed the hobby in; life goes on.

yes they bloody well would
and you Dave
too long in the shed or garage muddles the mind
need to sit in the house or down the pub for far too long again get nice and bored then you realise why you got into it in the first place.
then get that car out and burn some rubber....you want yer Mrs' mate from down the road to scowl at ya....makes live worth living
mind it works the other way as well.
if i'm in the house sombody finds me something to do....i can't get out to do anything
still haven't unpacked my car from the NATS
