Wow! Congratulations! I am SOOOOOO far away from my final payment it ain't even funny

I had no car payment for 3 years and it was great - I bought lots of other stuff. Then Tadashi came into the picture and now I am poor of dollars but rich in spirit - or VTEC anyway

I think you should take the extra money and buy a nice gift each month for one of us. I volunteer for the first month.

Yes - Lainey needs her own wheels! I'd vote for that but only if you promise to come and try one track day with me

I do, don't I? A track day sounds cool, but I think I'd be when my inability to drive like a person showed up immediately. And what if you crash your car on a track? Is that covered under insurance?

If we ever get two Ss it will because a ship of money came in with our name on it. There would be enough money so I would not worry if I did crash the S on a track.

That's why ya go to driving school I was pretty dang slow my first time on the track - I had a MINI kick my butt (is there an icon for embarrassed?) No offense Dave!

Because it's not a competition (like racing or even an autocross) - it's a driving school and you have an instructor with you - insurance SHOULD cover any problems. I've never actually seen anyone do anything worse than spin out. There is alot of runoff at NH too. You might mangle a few cones but that would probably be the worst

When we all get buckets of money I might have a dedicated track S and a regular daily driver - gotta keep playing that powerball ticket I guess. Maybe I'll even buy Joe one

as long as its not being timed... its considered "driving school" so you'll be covered.

Congrats on paying off the S quickly. I did the same. It takes some burden off your shoulders.
