As a friend of you both I have to interject in this friendly banter.

I remember Patrick being afraid to drive it because it was too pristine to drive.
Like he would even want to drive it with the original NCT tires. That's a death
trap waiting to happen!

Did you have to sell him a concours car knowing that he was a newly licensed kid
wanting to drive?

I always hear you knocking lowered cars. Why then did you engineer the shocks
that Grady sells in his lowering kit? I am VERY happy with that setup on my car.
I haven't ruined my chasis and I drive like the Duke Boys compared to Patrick. If
I do scrape it's only the front sway bar mounts or the rear end of side skirts.
And again that's only when I drive like an aggressive Don Johnson going around
dip'n corners or curbs. Take it respectably and I have no problems. Are you just
upset Patrick got DMCH's Eibach set up and not yours? :-)

At the time my 74k mile car got 1st place at Pigeon Forge. Your car keeps getting
2nd & 3rd  in your class, right ;-) I don't need to go over 100 mph to notice the
superior ride in my lowered car. All though it was fun run' at 120mph with a
Corvette knowing I wasn't going to float off the road with a high snooty front
nose. You may note that your car came "raised" from the factory that actually
circumvented the engineers intended specs. :-)

I'm not a teenager anymore but you still tease me too! Probably 'cause I often
act like an 8 year old.
 
>There is the difference between those that want to drive the cars and those

I drive, drive, drive & enjoy my car! There's just something missing if I sit
around all day cleaning my car & ironing the seat belt label :-P ... I have to
drive it to fully enjoy the vehicle & life that surrounds it.

So now YOUR "Frankensteining" cars?

Yeah buddy, with my (maybe by then) over 100k mile Frankenstein gun'n for another
1st place.
