How'd you do at the strip Martin?

**dronesurfboards** · 08-05-2013, 01:29 AM

I think I really have a car addiction. I was browsing the web at prices on certain cars, nsx...nothing under 40k, sc430....mileage to high, s2k....I'm too fat, then suddenly found a deal and decided to check it out. Well I bought another car, 2010 is350 convertible.
And here she is

I didn't have any real plans to fix this car up besides a minor drop and maybe some better stock oem wheels, but now I'm looking at lexon carbon front lip, toms side skirts, hks exhaust, rays gram lights 57dr and maybe tein cst or hks hipermax. I got issues, but I don't have a broad to blow money on so I guess it'll be on cars. So the tl goes outside and the new toy gets its spot in the garage now.

Im basically a workaholic. Ive been a sushi chef for 8-9 years now but the bulk of the money I make is when I private chef and teach sushi classes. A lot of the corporate parties I chef for under the company I work for, I network hard and made relationships with some of the rich people in town, then when I do their parties, their friends hire me for their parties and it just goes from there. I make 25/hour under the company, but when I private chef I charge 125/hr to 250/hr plus gratuity. These people throw money around like nothing. then when I teach private classes for some of these people, I charge 70/a person. so if I can get a group of 10-30 people it starts to add up. since I basically have no life because of work, I have extra money to do double payments on the the cars. I have 1 year left of the F, and 1.5 years left on the acura, so I guess if I just grind out, all ill have left is 1 car to pay for eventually. only problem, cars are the worst investment in the world, so im losing money when I should really be investing in something that should make me money lol.

Seriously bro.... how can you manage?

Nice bro. And I do believe that rich cats spend as you say because they're always trying to impress so no doubt they want to be fancy.

You have a life bro, you teach what you do and you do what you love, and you're compensated well for it.

Marc did 14.2 at 104. No traction in the first 2 gears and I didn't launch

**M-Rod** · 08-05-2013, 04:37 PM

^Its tough because the first 60' are so crucial. Not enough throttle, it bogs. Too much throttle, wheel spin like crazy. Its such a fine line to maintain. Either way, that thing is easily capable of 13's if you ever go back to the strip and push it.

**deeznutz** · 08-05-2013, 04:57 PM

^^^^ this all day long!

Drones....you are crazy, car crazy! Congrats on the new addition. Love your hustle, you're doing what you love and getting paid for it then paying for your hobby, and getting out of debt by doubling down on payments. Plus, you not buying no junk cars, you getting recent, above average cars (the G and the F being exceptional cars). Cars aren't a good investment, but if you love them, and you can afford them, F it, make yourself happy.

Oh, and a pic of my car's new parking spot (since it's kinda tight for the wife's crossover):

**greddy** · 08-05-2013, 06:07 PM

Yeah my 60fts are terrible so it is what it is. Car has lots of negative camber up front and stiff suspension so it's not really set up for it but fun regardless

Practice is key, when my friend first started racing he posted high 13's in a lighten NA K20A (6spd) EG Coupe 24" slicks. He would see similiar cars going faster, he didn't get it. But practice made perfect, after a few test and tunes, minimal changes to the MAP but more and more practice, he eventually got the car down to 11.5....then he went turbo which is a whole other story.

Now it's a full on drag car with everything bigger, way bigger.
