Spun a bearing at the track on an 11.01@ 129.90 run. Sold the rolling shell, and parted it out to pay off massive credit card debt. ☹ I wish I woulda kept it. ---

1990 Eclipse 5 spd. I loved it, but that is the car I drove across country in when I moved to Los Angeles. I beat the living shit out of it driving in L.A., ripped off door handle, (notice nice white replacement :bowrofl: ) knocked off the pass side mirror in the parking garage of our apt, and it was starting to go to shit engine wise too. I sold it to one of our mexican neighbor’s “cholo” friends for $1000 before I moved here to Pittsburgh. No way that thing was making it back across the country!

92 Chevy Beretta, 6 cyl. Broke down on my way to work, my stepdad replaced the alternator three times assuming that’s what it was. Took it to a garage, was told it had some big problem with the brakes (mechanic wouldn’t tell me what it was unless I paid him $25 just to tell me what was wrong with it). I got tired of having to borrow a car until mine was fixed. So I bought a new one and eventually sold the Beretta to my sister for $800. Paid $2500 for it less than a year before, sold it with about 70k miles on it. I had been rearended in it too though, adjustor was going to total it, my dad told him he knew a mechanic that could fix it for cheaper. Should have let 'em total it. ---

1983 S-10 stripped down beast. rubber floors, no power steering, no power brakes, didnt have heat vents only had defrost and vent on the floor, 4 speed…and the ever so famous 2.8 v-6. I bought it 600 US b/c I sold my car to afford my WS.6. Saved up some cash while I had it and got my GTP. I actually kinda miss having a beater truck…nice to have for odds and ends jobs and dont care it it gets beat. I also liked it b/c if something mechanically broke on it it was good to learn on. I learned how to change a clutch on it…very basic on that thing. ---
