It is very difficult to just walk away

Myself Ive been racing cars since the 80s. I took a break for 6 years to get my life in order all the while thinking about the next 4 wheel fix. I however sold my pride and joy of 13 years for less than I thought I ever would. Trailer, parts, xtras, etc etc. Well I finally got back into it and jumped head first to Stock Elim.(dumb *** ) Now I am currently and slowly building another Stocker for what? I keep truly wondering why. I am willing to bet Ive spent about a 1/4 of a million dollars over the years on this 4 wheel crack ****.That being said Ive met a lot of great people and made alot of friends in doing this. Now that I can finally afford to do it I am ready to quit again. Im not really sure if anything else makes me as happy. As long as I have something to show for it I guess. Anyway, I promised myself not to sell out this time due to the fact my 4 yr old son cant wait to take the helm. God help me this expense is just the beginning. Time for a 2nd part time job and maybe I can walk there due to the (soon to be) 4 dollars a gallon gas. Its a vicious cycle aint it? For now Im staying close to the home front
as the big storm is coming and the snow blower is ready for some un used c12 .
