When every GD goober at the local carshow has to tell you about how cousin Cletus had one just like it "back in the day", but his had a three-fiddy with a four-barrow & glasspacks.
 
Not to spoil your thread, but I lifted this from here years ago.....

of your neck stand up.

You have a collection of spare & NOS parts worth ore than your car.
Your girlfriend / wife tells you that she hates your car.



Soooo true about the she hates it..
 
......when you tell people "I have two books at my bedside, Sir, the GN Facts and Figures Book and the King James Bible. The only proper authorities I am aware of are Stephen Dove, Dennis Kirban and the Lord our God."


people tell you they upgraded to a 9 PSI pulley and you wonder why anybody would only run 9PSI
I laughed out loud at that one.
 
people ask you why you like driving your grandmas car around town
or
when you think meth (alky) dealers are good people
 
when you and the 2 local TR guys can build a car from the spare parts your collecting in case you need them.
 
When you are riding in your car with one of your buddies..... and after you mash on it for a few seconds..... and let off...... you are both giggling like school kids laughing at a fart someone cut in high school English Class.
 
You can pass a gas station but not a weigh station.

You take weight out of your car to pass tech.

your car consumes more alcohol than you do.

people look at you with that dumb look when you say 22 lbs of boost, i'm just getting started.

you have to remove dogs, children and other odd objects from your cold air inlet.

when someone says BBW you smile and images of your car pass through your day dream

You lost to a mustang once, it was driven by John Force.

women children and dogs run at the sight of your garage door opening.

the presidential science team is still investigating the hole in the ozone your turbo created.

the neighbors come knocking on your door first when their trash can disappears.

10w-30 synthetic is a consumable you top off every 300 miles or 6 hours of run time.

you spend more money on fuel, tires and turbos than most people spend on their house.

Mobile oil, Shell Chemical and goodyear send you Christmas cards every year.

your wife has never been jealous of another woman.

you buy 2 weeks worth of groceries before going to the track to get better traction.
 
Big block Chevy's expect you to spot them 3 car lengths:confused:
