I'm presently in the same sort of situation; a couple of years ago I got nearly to where I wanted to be with my car, but that last little push over the top(into the 9's) was gonna cost me big time. Then I got hurt, making it nearly impossible for me to safely drive the car. Then the economy went to hell and my spare cash dried up. I want to get back in the saddle but the economics of the situation are forcing me to push it back yet another year. No need to be a stranger here but I understand the need to get away. Good luck!
