age a state of mind...

Anyone out there over fiddy? I'm having the time of my life playing with my car but maybe I'm insane...there don't seem to be many like me...have the money, have the time but difficult finding good info...good shop. Many thousands invested, still a very difficult journey.

I'd like to hear from those that are a little older. What I have learned is if you can learn & do it yourself it is best.

Are you afraid to spell the word fifty....? HAHA

I'll never be old that's cause I'm a recycled teenager. Worked my tail off for
over four decades and became too serious. Since I recycled I can relax, have
fun and play with my toys and the kids here on Driver....

i think its awesome to see people at your age still totally into enjoying their cars. our florida club has a few members who are up there that still are more active than many others. its nice to hear about their experiences and knowledge.
