That sounds like a bit more than $2k.

I would probably get a pretty freakin' awsome RC8.

Well I spent my 2000+ on a jet. A JHI A-7 Corsair II. Then I matched the 2000 and bought all the elect's. Now for the hours upon hours of putting it all together. I also did a biggie at once like that on my FG MB....somewhere around 3500.00 and this thing was worth every penny. Hell they all are worth every cent. I will not start adding just yet though. Still building new stuff


makes me wonder what it is that you do for a living that i dont.

Let me tell you, the first year in public accounting industry suckssssssssssssssssss
