When I asked what was wrong with his BMW, he simply said it was missing one thing........................ a clutch.
Guess I taught him right.

The boy has 465 horsepower, STOCK!!

One month later he has me under it on the lift adding a new Roush exhaust!
He wanted the install to be a father and son project for his birthday present.
He remembered being 9 years old and staying up past midnight helping me get the stock exhaust back on Ruby as I realized I needed more points to get a Top Flight the next day at NCRS.

Can't complain though, Junior in collage, plays football, going for Mechanical Engineering and is working 40 hours a week at amazon during the summer to feed his car habit.

I did the same for my car habit, many years ago.

Ahhh I can only envy you Marty to have a son following in your car footsteps. My daughter, who drove my Quasar Blue '93 ZR-1 at Road America once for a few laps, now lives in downtown Chicago and they don't even own a car. And she seems to be trying to get my granddaughter to dislike cars in general. My son, who also drove the Quasar '93 and like yours helped putting on several exhaust systems on various cars, seems a bit mechanically challenged. On the plus side he does like cars but has a wife who doesn't and would likely not let him spend money on one. Oh well, hopefully our enthusiasm for cars and things mechanical will skip a generation! --Bob
