Just something to think about
 
A Stock/SS Eliminator Racers take on an old saying;
You can go racing cheap, fast,or easy but you can only pick two of the three ways;
Fast and easy but it won't be cheap
Fast and cheap but it won't be easy
Cheap and easy but it won't be fast

It must be very cold and snowy Billy for all this wisdom to come out.

Just thought about it and didn't make a bit of "cents". I'll go back to thinking of Dart blocks, 55mm camshafts, 927 keyed lifters, 1.88 rod journals and 9000 RPM SS Big Blocks. Not cheap or easy but will be fast and under the index for more than a grand and not a dime rocket!!! MB.

Naw, that would be RPM blocks and they would never see 9000.

similar ...we've always had the three rules - fast, cheap or pretty, pick any two!

Are we talking racing, or women? Fairly certain the same can be said for both. lol

In all actuality, the saying of "good, cheap and fast" comes from the restaurant industry.

You can have your food, good, cheap, or fast, pick two.

Another good one is " your lack of preparation does not constitute a rush on my part"

And lets not forget "it takes three gorbs to to make flunte, but eight snaps to make a gorb"
