At 15 the only wheels I cared about where my skateboard and my first car was..gasp! a HONDA! Also, his mom is supportive enough to drive him all the way to Trenton on a Sunday morning so he could check out the engine. Sure he's young and has a long way to go but everyone starts somewhere. Sure his plans may change and maybe tomorrow he's selling this engine in favor of an aluminum block and 32 valve heads and the next day he wants a hillborn intake and fuel injection, but he's learning along the way and it's our job to support him.
Thanks alot, my moms real supportive.

Not defending Matt at all but you have to give him "mad props yo" drifting is hard and all i keep thinking of is that post SmokingSS made with that guy getting run over by his own car doing doughnuts.
Im not setting up this car for drifting, I wanted to see if drifting and autox set ups where alike, and if they where, eventually set up this or a future car for it.

there are all types of thrill people can get from car, I kinda want all of them, but I have to get their one at a time.
