not me ,, i look at it this way, you have a hobby, (golf, model airplanes, ) or whatever it cost money to have a hobby, mine happenes to be drad racing, (if it was road racing then i could not aford it) but yes it may cost more than collecting modle cars again i love drag racing I have had a drag car (street or super pro) sence 1959 when we raced on the old Amelia Earhart feild in miami fl. 1959 - Advertisement for the Drag Races at Amelia Earhart Field.
so you see if you want and love your hobby then get that car out there if it brakes fix it and get back as soon as possible. jim
