Default Recent repairs are making driving me to the poor house...

About $8500 for stage 3 upgrade only then to realize my clutch/pressure plate is ****, so another $1600 there. I'm getting weak, need some AW lub.

Default Well, I recently did $1900 worth of cosmetic damage to my car with a mtn bike and rack

If I lived near a bridge I would have jumped by now.
