I got all my motivation for the Faleen from driving it on the track. Seeing the potential that a mustang has on a road course with the right suspension setup did it for me, ie: SFCoupe and 9cobra7...both guys have semi-low hp cars (compared to all these corvettes and GTR's) but well prepped suspensions, and they can eat up high dollar cars like nothing! Though the "driver mod" plays a big role, with my current setup I'm able to play with Porsches, BMW's, and 500+ hp mustangs with similar suspension mods. That's enough motivation for me to keep it going [burnout]

The feeling of accomplishment when YOU put hour after hour of your own hard work into a car and then beat the crap out of it without issue. Having a reliable fast car that was built in my garage with my own two hands is something I appreciate and value quite a lot. Gives me way more joy than the guy writing a check at a shop who did all the work for him. Money can buy anything, but real satisfaction comes from accomplishing it yourself.

the love of the torque first ...and the look on faces of douchebags when you skool them

my 2 favorite ass whoopings

1) on gratiot in detroit V a '95 viper
2) at lapeer dragstrip V a big block '69 camaro

everything else is a minor victory
