my car is far past my original intentions.

my goal was for 12 secs and still be a good street driver and i have done that now i am looking for 11s now, and after that i will probably look for 10s someday lol.

with a mustang there is NEVER the moment of "completion"

i keep adding parts and NEVER do i feel like i have completed anything.

you could set a goal for yourself. and get to the goal and then there is still this little void, left to be filled. you persue the void and you can never fill it. no matter how many parts you add or how fast the car gets the void is never filled. at least for me.

i don't think the words "done" or "finished" have ever escaped a true car enthusiast's mouth. lol

It happens ALL the time. Like these greatest hits:

"...and I thought I was finished!"
"I'll never be done."
"I'm glad that the car is back together and running, I'm done for a while....now where's that parts catalog?"

Not sure I would call it done, but I am definitely not sinking anymore money into it for a long, long time.

Well, other than the power adder.......

Ive looked through countless catalogs, and short of new wheels, i havent found ANYTHING i want in any catalog.

So suffice to say, i think my car is actually done. There isnt possible another area of the car i can upgrade, other than the fuel lines from the tank.

Power adder, then supplemental **** cuz it never happens that what you have already will work, and it will just grenade from there buddy

Yea soon I will have nothing to do but detail the undercarriage like I did the rest of the car. Yipe.

Well, the power adder is a "maybe" as i dont think it will give me the balanced performance i am looking for on the road course.

Think next spring will bring me a set of Volk TE37s or Gram Light 57c's

I have an excel spreadsheet of "projects" by category with parts needed per project...

-power adders (LOTS in this category)
-brakes (Need to do rear disc conversion)
-interior (LOTS in this category)
-exterior (nothing in this category right now)

Yea - I can't see being "done" anytime soon...
