Putting money into a car is useless.You never get back what you put in,I know from experience. Start a savings account somewhere and dump it in,wait until a good deal comes along and invest the money. ---

When have I ever stalled my car at a meet? considering I have had it to mabe 3 or 4 meets, its 22 years old and carbed, sometimes it doesn’t start on the first crank…does not constitute as “stalling it”. ---

dude just keep saving, honestly. if you keep saving up to like 800, and then ask what to buy you’ll never get anywhere. if you keep saving, after time you’ll have a large enough amount of money that can actually make a difference in your life. house, new car, sick vacation, move, etc etc. but if i kept spending $800 everytime i saved it, i’d be screwed. i just saved about 3500 in 3 months to take with me to cali, on top of the 5k i already had. i like to have insurance, and not accumulate stupid shit i wasted my money on. ---
