Dammit, I would so be in for that if I hadn't just spent ALL of my money (and then some) on turbo swapping my FC. Plus now I have to rebuild it as well. Dammit.

Speed Racer has been done... and done again... and then done one more time... and done some more....

Everytime - the Speed Racer cars are positively terrible. If you look at past Lemons race pics on Jalopnik or on other sites you will see what I mean.

I don't know what Chucks deal is with the Speed Racer Saturn car...

Of course, my personal nemesis is a certain Nissan SE-R that I see at almost every race. Its not so much that I hate the car - because its usually broken down in the pits anyway. However, I think the fucktards piloting it are a bunch of douches. This is their handiwork:

If anyone has an S4 bare engine or tranny that can be rebuilt PM me.

Was suppost to pick up some stuff from a guy in San Antonio, even drove there to pick it up, and have been left completely hanging. Seemed like a nice guy, but I gotta get the brat running again. Drove it around today, and man I'd like to get it back on track.

Rear rotor has ultra-low compression, and the transmission housing is cracked. If you've got anything, email me mikespeed95@gmail.com

Sadly we won't be at MSR. Too broke and no time.

Scott, I just don't know how you do it. Every time that I think you've hit the top you just go off and out do yourself again! Love it!

Is Chuck welding or trying to set the car on fire?
Hard to tell from this angle.
