Default Drove the Accord today

Man I miss driving her around. I had forgotten what solid acceleration felt like and the low center of gravity was hard to get used to.

Maybe I should insure and register her again and put some miles on her without the risk of getting caught.

Ahh how long had it been since u drove her? No luck on any sales? I guess its hard when u put so much time and money to get it all back..might as well insure it and enjoy it instead of keepin it locked up.

I last drove it in November of last year then my tags were up on it and I parked her.

I am going to gut her out and track it this year, after this year I am thinking I may just sell the engine and part the car off.

yea true, but i doubt you'll get anything close to all the money you've invested u know? not many people can appreciate the hard work. might as well keep her and enjoy her.

Thats the thing though...I don't get to enjoy her anymore

Every time I pull her out I either get a ticket, someone wants to race me, I get hated on by both people who know what she has and those that don't, and any other number of reasons.

It has just become such a petty thing anymore it gets tiring.
