The only thing I DIY today is the racecar squad. If I die from a suspension failure taking a turn above 100mph, I want it to be my error.
I refuse to die from the hands of a 19 year old with an Accutane dependency and a fresh WyoTech degree.
Vanilla frees up more Stalin time compared to a SanFran dude brah. Time is worth more as you age. -

"You paid $300 for that? Dude, you could have ordered the part online for $30 and installed it yourself. Put your car on some jack stands, remove the oil gaskets, drain the fuel injectors, and then use a series 903 torque conversion ratchet to take off the mounting brackets. Then you just unscrew the old one and screw in the new one. Take you maybe 2 hours."
Yeah, fuck that shit. -

I hired contractors to do work in a condo we owned. After they finished up, they asked if there was anything else I wanted done. I paid them to hang artwork on the walls. Some people call that lazy. I call it a worthwhile fucking investment because I hate hanging pictures and artwork.Fenderbender123 said:

Cars are pricey. Good mechanics are rare. Pay them well..Fenderbender123 said:

My shop is a bargain compared to German dealerships, but this is every millenial kid's response to a race inspection (required signed inspection before entering any paddock) after I tell him what he needs to fix before race day.
"I already paid my $300/day race entry fee! I only budgeted for a $100 inspection."
"I read a forum/FB thread that said it's only X amount of hours/labor!!"
"I can't pay you until next month? Can you get it ready for next Friday?"
Not without a few Gs my guy. We won't sign your inspection without the repairs. We race too. Your car is not safe.
