Down She Goes!!

So Mr. King Cavi scored me some SSC springs - and although it was a BITCH to install - and it took me 4 hours...it is so nice to have some better handling - that with the Jason Smith strut bar makes corners a breeze....

And on another note - I was pulling down 167 tonight at about 12:30 on my way home with my new springs on and this jack ass in an old neon trys to race me and cut me off...an although I may have an LS - I still kicked his ass - he followed me off the freeway and tried to race me at 4 stoplights in a row. Needless to say I kicked his ass!! He pulled up next to me in town and tried to stair me down...it was pretty funny...I laughed at him - flipped him off - and peeled down the road to home....I just had to laugh at the ******* though...HAHAHAHAHA!!!!

The Neon wasn't red with a ram sticker on the hood and a god awful double wing, was it? If so, I handed him his ass a few times and he keeps coming back for more as if there will be a different outcome.

Congrats on the springs. I just got mine on and I'm loving them!

Oh so nice - The handling is AMAZING compared to stock - esp since I also have the custom strut bar....= yum!! all I need now is some new rims and tires and some sway bars and then the handling will be set!!!

3 or four - had to go get the spring compressors when we finished the back. We were also trying to help the friend that let us borrow his driveway and air tools to fix a car that had been tboned. So ya, two cars, 4 breaks, and a very sunny day. Oh, and this was the first time any of us had done.

Im not going to start an argument, I just don't understand why people have to be condesending. Yes - Im new ; It may take me longer to work on my car; but what does that have to do with anyone else. You wanna give some tips - awesome - you want to comment -fine. But why come in here and start slamming people. I got the job done - and yes, it may have taken longer than someone else - but I would bet that although you can do your work on your car faster, you cant tell me **** about the physics that go into how and why it all works. So F off if your only going to be a D bag - its not needed or appreciated. Thanks!
