"Vanatta drives a 2002 Subaru WRX that can go a quarter-mile in 14.2 seconds, he said. He's put about $4,000 into it to get his car this powerful, but he wants to get his quarter-mile time under 10 seconds."
He's $4k in the hole and can only muster a 14.2?? It sounds like that $4000 would have been better spent at a driving school.
"Keith Pavlik, a mechanical engineering junior, has put more than $30, 000 into his Nissan 300 ZX. Pavlik has added a DVD player, touch-screen computer, CD player and multiple gauges."
What ricer wouldn't want to watch a couple minutes of F&F while they're waiting at the finish line?
And he's put $30k into his car?? The benefits of living for free with mommy and daddy huh?
