All My wife knows that it's my side chick. No questions. :)

I race my car and my wife is sort of like a "Team Owner". She expects it to cost money, but she expects me to get something for the money I spend. It's not uncommon for her to ask me how much time I expect to shave off of an average run for a given expenditure.
When I first started autocrossing my Base model 350, I had about $1k burning a hole in my pocket and decided I wanted to order an exhaust. She asked how much time the exhaust would shave off of my runs. I was only expecting 5-10hp max so I guessed the difference would be a tenth of a second...maybe two tenths. We were only dating at the time but she stopped me in my tracks when she asked how much time a LSD would shave...Well, THAT would probably knock a whole second off an average run compared to the open diff my Base came with. The Quaife LSD was my first mod. Now, almost a decade later, she is my wife and I still have not bought an exhaust. Lol. |

Update: wifey notice alert
Went out to dinner with friends in our sedan and when we got back home, I opened the garage and there was my Z sitting tight. I looked at her and noticed she was looking at the Z's a$$.

Lol. I have to agree with her :tup:

My car knows itself pretty darn well...

Mine didn't even realize when my exhaust was changed.

There is a reason I'm still stock... there is no sneaking anything

she knows enough to know which credit card is used to buy my mods and which vendors I use...she is my financial advisor (accountant) and pays the bills so I get the : Home Depot plastic dip?...led's from JD??...CAI from AEM???, things like that but never says we ran out of money, she is a keeper and can cook :stirthepot:
