          Sorta buying a car is like sorta being pregnant. 

          Looks like a decent car from the blurry pic. Or was the car still bouncing from the weird suspension job when you snapped the picture?

              It was still bouncing for sure.  17 minutes until it is completely at rest.

                                But CXRacing won't give you a new one if there is ever a problem including self induced from crashing your car.  Of course if you smash this car bad enough to damage the radiator you probably won't need a new one.

                                    Update! I was partying with bfinley and the crew and was challenged to a burnout... I haven't had the car all that long by this point and have done nothing to it at all... So I revved a little and dumped off the clutch and awesome burnout! So I figured after a 200+ foot burnout that another little one wouldn't hurt... The curse of the Japanese cooling system caught back up with me :( I blew the old rad sky high! Glad it did tho... There were tons of little stress cracks all over it and was gonna go sooner or later so I was glad it did it a half hour away from home rather than hours away... Stay tuned for some maintainence madness!
