I'll drive how I please, thank you. And being ASE certified means you passed a few tests... greeeaaat... Experience and skill go much much further than a piece of toilet paper with the letters ASE on them. Every teenager coming out of vocational/technical school is ASE certified.
...and that's a very shiny POS you have there. BTW: Trying to impress your buddy in the passenger seat only slows you down. As does 3 pounds of wax.
And after I frag (I LOVE that word) this trans, it's likely I'll be in a better financial position to replace it.. Currently saving for a wedding (that she insists on spending 18 grand on *twitch*) and a house.
Soon after the wedding I hope to drop a B18C in there and upgrade the trans accordingly... But I'll never abandon my hubcaps and shitty paint. Thieves will never look twice.
