The Fun Starts Here

Ya Gotta know where to Go...The FUN Starts Here “make a “GET DONE LIST”

We need to quit wishing and star t living our dreams….

I was that person...talking about what hot rod I wanted to build or get before it gets too late in life. Most if not all of us do it...talk about what we would really like to have in the garage.

I know...I know...it’s easy to say that I am going to make something happen but then life sometimes gets in the way. Life getting in the way is like a speed bump...ya’ gotta slow down a little but you don’t come to a complete stop for the rest of time.

Time is a factor too. There are things each of us has to do everyday, week or month that are not hot rod related. Again these SLOW us down...not stop us dead in the water so to speak.

I took my own advice late last year and made good on this myself, so IF I could do it, most everyone can.

Since I was a young lad of about 10(many many moons ago!), after my dad took myself and my brother to the drag race at Oswego Dragstrip in Oswego IL and US30 Dragstrip in Indiana, I like so many others got hooked on TOP FUEL dragsters. You know the ones with the motors in the front of the driver. NITRO drinking, noise making, ground shaking machines that were really time bombs with a driver in them.

I told myself about 10 years ago I was going to have one. I cant fit in it or race it but I wanted my own AA/FD FULL SIZE Hot Wheels car. I Started squirreling away money so I could get one before I got too old to enjoy it.

Like everyone there were bills to pay but I socked away some extra bucks whenever I could. GUESS WHAT??? Yep I now own a real deal Nitro drinking, thunder making, flames belching out of the pipes AA/FD Top Fuel Dragster!! The “PAVEMENT SHAKER dragster resides with me now.

Everything doesn't come down to a pocketful of 100’s, careful planning, frugal buying and staying with it will make it happen for you.

Instead of having a “bucket list” that just gets emptied out because we talked about it, make a “GET DONE LIST” and start putting check marks next to the hot rod things you want...I got a BIG check mark! “Drive ’Em Don’t Hide ’Em”
