Selling my "race" suspension.

Penske triple adjustable custom (Guy Ankeny) shocks. Two sets of front springs (900 & 750) and 650 lb rear springs. Includes RRE pillowball upper mounts. I used them two seasons. Took them off before last winter.

If you don't plan to race, these are probably not for you. While I daily drove them for a couple years, the wife would not ride with me.

$3500

That is what second mortgages are for. :)

So I guess this means that Miller will never see the silver bullet? You know you're going to buy new suspension when the track is built. :D

I think I may try to go to MMP next year. Of course I say I will do autox every year and still haven't! I still have the GC coilovers. I just don't think I need to press for 1st place anymore.

Track - here? Not sure when that will happen.

I do hope to go to Pueblo this year. I will drive down and run on my all season street tires. :(

Perhaps if SC were still open I would have sprung for the external WG and DG's 18x10.5" wheels. I just don't think one event a year is worth the investment.

Told the wife I need a new hobby.

No sure my aching back could deal with that, but I have been meaning to take Nick karting.

I'm in for a "take the kids to the kart track" day. There is a new track in Centennial.

I'll double Justin's offer. :D

Finally broke down and bought a reliable daily driver, so once again the car budget is non-existent. Being responsible sucks. ;)

Too many cars can cloud sound judgement.

One snow car
One road race car
One drag car
One reliable daily driver

One DSM for all of it.

Well, between the 4 vehicles :eek: we finally have enough to cover items #1 and #4 for two people. I must admit, it's pretty nice to have a vehicle that just runs, has A/C, and doesn't make me cringe every time we hit a large pothole or bump. :p

Oh, and you forgot one vehicle type:

One tow vehicle (for the DSMs, of course!) :D
