why i drive an audi

[Rave Racer]

    Sounds familiar.  4KQ  Was trying to get the Widebody kit on.  Ran out
of money fixing slave cylinder and motor mounts.  Haven't even got to the
shocks yet, or the fuel system, or the starter, or the right rear lights, or
the rear diff lock, not to mention all the stuff that's supposed to make
this a luxury car....  ie seat heaters, window regulators.. blah, blah,
blah.
    I love it.  Quattro keeps me sane.  Even with all these probs, I eat
Hodna boy racers for breakfast....  as long as they only have intakes and
exhaust for mods.  Surprises them tho.
