Default Thinking about hanging it up

I havent fully decided yet,but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna give up the drag racing and just put the Olds back on the road. I hate to slow the car down,but where I live this kind of engine just will not live running the highways. I have to drive half an hour just to get to the nearest grocery store. I just hate seeing all that time and money tied up in something that I cant use to drive in to town whenever I want. I LOVE racing,and may end up back in it. My plans are to put in a decent little small block just to putt around with.Maybe one day I'll do a small blow thru setup. Gimmethakick has put grand visions of turbo-d,streetable LS1's in my mind....thanks bud...like I'm not already broke/busy enough :evil: I dont know. Racing hasn't gotten stale for me,I still love it,just need to focus on more pressing issues right now. That being said there will probably be a 496 BBC and a 24' enclosed in the classifieds soon.
