Maybe there's something wrong with me?

I went out for a lovely steak dinner with my wife last night. It was romantic, we had a good bottle of wine and some fine food to accompany our charming conversation. Then the check came. Needless to say, it wasn't burger king, you know what I'm saying! And I got to thinking, with this money I could have bought a set of Samco radiator hoses for the Evo.

Am I calous? Am I the only obsessed Evo driver on the forum that thinks like this?

I guess if I see any other SocalEvo members at BK with their significant others then I know the answer to that question!

Let me know what you think...

Tony, hahahah i was thinking the same thing yesterday. I spent like $15 at Rock Bottom Brewery then another 10 at Dinner with Dino and I was thinking "man, if only i could save my money and eat at home with my parents or something I could have more money for mods!"

I feel you too man! Last year valentine's day day I took my gf to a up scale restaurant in Beverly Hills. The food was ok, 4 course french stuff, real small portion, and we didn't drink anything. The check came and it was about $300 including tips, I was like :shock: :shock: :shock: The most expensive single meal I've every had. I learned to always do some research at the prices before I go to one of those places. But you can't avoid the fact that your woman is always competing with your car for your money :x

Trust the sage, here, for some good advice...For my age is similar to the long buried sick 55 speed limit.

It helps to be married, if you want to save $$ on food.
Tell the woman how much you LOVE her cooking -- this also works for single guys after the first date.
Tell the woman that you want her comfort in your car and that is why you're saving for those Tein coilovers...etc.
You do the romatic thing by telling her how beautiful she is, and how much, you know... and how great she is ... and all of that... You focus on the low-cost items....The luv thing.

The money thing is usually quite easy....The women like the personal things you do...now that's where the problems come... the time. They want the time you need to install the samco's. And to drive...

Just ask Wrenchy about how to save for your car and still have a lovelife.

I'm lucky in that my spouse is wanting to go with me on the drives...Well... so long as I don't drive tooo hard cuz she gets motion puky. But she likes the action... R2

Hate to say this, but my wife is a chef, so eating at home is always an option. And she helped me do the brake install on the Evo too, so she's great in that dept. I guess it's just down to the $$$$ again. If you've been following the "I need to make $30k thread then you will know why my wife and I were talking last night about me donating a nut....

Here's another thread that I absolutely love! Why the hell do you guys think I've been eating top ramen and spaghettios for every meal. Jimmy, I know what you're talking about with the frog food man. I took a chick out a couple years ago to a french joint, spent over 2 bills, and left super hungry. Had three hot dogs at the movies right afterward. Craziest porn movie sex I ever had BTW, and it only cost me $350. I can put $25 in the tank and go run the secret roads and have a better time though! Hey Bevo you should charge your boys for rides since it seems like you're always the one driving hehehe. Call it a "sausage tax".

I know i MUST BE SICKER than you guys, but I'm older too!! But the saddest part is that with all my advanced knowledge and maturity, I completely agree with Rich.

I used to come back from Hwy 1 to Big Sur, after sitting in Nepethe and stoking up on double caps, about how riding the two wheeled beastie up that road was better than the luvin arms of my woman. Or somesimilar shit. Cheaper, the ride lasts at least as long if not longer -- hawhaw -- and the car or motorcycle, as opposed to the female, does exactly what I ask it to do and when I ask it....And I'm getting a little off topic here. And apologize if too graphic@@

Rich,

With your dedication to the car and the track, I would have thought it would be easy for you to pick up a sponsor or two to help you with the cost of stuff. For some of us pleasure cruisers I am sure it's not so feasable, but I think you'd be eligable.

Ricardon
11-25-2003, 09:52 PM
HA!! Well, I'm working on some things, but I'd very much hesitate to calling it sponsorship. I dunno, maybe I should look into it. I've honestly never thought about it much. I'd like to keep my head totally clean when I go racing, and not have to owe anyone anything ya know? Free stuff doesn't suck, but being obligated does!

When it comes to buying mods for racing it shouldn't matter. After all, let's say you got a tire sponsorship for instance, you would throw their tires on your car and maybe a sticker on the side and then go race. They'd get the exposure and you'd get free tires. I guess it depends how you negotiate the deal.

Hey Chris, bring me some food to the next meet then! I'm tired of Ramen, and am wasting away here. But wait, if I gain too much weight I may not be able to fit in my seat anymore. DAMNIT. I hate catch 22's.
