    Me too!

    Thing is, there is only so far you can go, and once you have it to a standard you want you don't need to spend out on it any more, apart from servicing and the odd consumable.

    Haha yea you are mental! So am I, but it's what you enjoy and so therefore money and logic take a backseat But wait, you say, I dont have backseats! Well, in these cases money and logic simply get chucked out out of the window instead!
