    I don't think there is a governmental body that buys cats. I'm almost certain that is the price a shady metal recycler would pay. I could be wrong though.
    Hmm I'll try the shady metal recyclers then...

        good point David. Did some searching, looks like $150-180.

        A cat this size is priced at $180, looks about the same size as a cat from am M50 car.


        So in other words, David, you got a screaming deal at $100 for your exhaust.

                    Did two practice sessions for the Summit Point Kart 500. We are so outclassed! Tommy Milner is here, if you follow ALMS you know who he is. Every other team that we ran with today were pro-drivers of some form. I was the 3rd slowest driver on the track both times. The two guys slower than me were my teammates!

                      Sounds cool, but not cool at the same time!

                        I'm hoping that everyone out doing practice sessions tonight are the pro's that take it seriously and that there will be a lot more sport class types out tomorrow. Inwas hoping for top 10, but now I'll be happy to not finish last!

                            You make good pictures Nathan.


                            We *might* be moving into this rental. Rest of the house is nice, but this is the part that matters right?





                            Yes, that is a 4 car garage! The post in the second picture is on the left of the first picture to give some reference.

                            Only negatives on the house is that water is so expensive, the years looks like ass. No air conditioning (wtf, built in 07???) and it's about $100 more a month than we wanted to spend.

                                Who cares about the negatives. 4 car garage = win.
